I want to give a huge thanks to Henry who was our server for dinner. He was so amazing. He entertained us while also serving us. He was such a blast of fun while we were on the cruise. I also want to give a huge thank you to Frankie the security guard. Frankie was absolutely amazing. I could tell that he loved his job and that he loved being there. He was amazing he took his job seriously and ...
The wife and I took our 10th anniversary cruise (and first cruise ever) on the MSC Divina. We were originally going to try Virgin, as the kiddos were staying home with the grands for this one, but by the time we booked Scarlet Lady was full. MSC caught our attention from YouTube and online research. The price point was hard to beat and we weren't looking for a megaship for our first time out so ...
Seasoned cruiser with 15+ cruises under my belt. Had a free cruise compliments of the RCL Casino, took the 4 day on from Galveston to Cozumel and back.
Room - we are balcony people usually, but we didn't win the Royal Up this time. We got an inside room. It was in an inside hallway -- and we LOVED the location. Near the elevator, but crazy quiet. No kids running back and forth, which was ...
All together my cruise was great. Our cabin steward Imade was excellent & very nice.
Every crew member I encountered was polite and helpful. Plenty of food choices; went to Fahrenheit 55 steak house, food & service was excellent. On dine in movie night, I'm going to suggest snow cones, to go along with that popcorn they're charging $4.00 for now.
The entertainment, was not lacking. Loved ...
This was my first cruise. I had a seasoned cruiser leading the way. She made all the reservations for our group of 7 girls. The food was good. Not blow your socks off amazing, but good. We ate dinner in the dining room each night and the Windjammer buffet every day for lunch. The buffet is huge, too many choices. So it's great for picky eaters. I thought the buffet food was good. My ONLY 2 issues ...
I am Diamond with RCCL and have enjoyed many cruises with them and other Lines. My cruise with Independence of the Seas was uneventful in that everything was pretty much what I have come to expect and enjoy with RCCL. here are some thoughts:
High lights the assistant cruise director from the Philippines was hilarious and ran the game and contests in an outstanding fashion - we has a show ...
My wife and I chose this cruise mainly for the itinerary -- we had never been to Jamaica, Grand Cayman, or Cozumel -- and the timing, which fitted our schedule. (We forgot it was March break, our kids being long grown up). We had done one cruise on Princess years ago, and two each on Norwegian and Royal Caribbean since. Princess seems at least as good as Royal Caribbean, and better than Norwegian, ...
We sailed out of Miami with our 3 teens on Spring Break. Embarkation was easy. We had 2 Oceanview cabins on deck 2 and were surprised at how modern, bright and clean they were. The beds were really comfy and our room attendant Rhea went above and beyond to make us feel at home. This ship may be older, but honestly, it was spotless and beautifully updated. We did not do any speciality dining and ...
The steak house was fantastic little pricey but worth it the buffet needs work. Went on 2 excursions 1st too the myan ruins lots of walking and climbing so if you have back or leg issues I don't recommend, 2 vip Beach trip well worth the money food and staffing just fantastic. Spa was great got the body scrub and massage lasted 50 minutes. Karaoke was a blast everyone there was very supportive of ...
We chose this cruise for three reasons. The first was a lifelong desire to see the Panama Canal. The second was how much we enjoyed our Alaska Cruise Tour with Princess before COVID. The third was - COVID was no longer a concern to us!
First of all, don't get me wrong - we LOVED the cruise. The staff and crew were amazing, cheerful and helpful (especially our cabin attendant Czar). The food was ...
