Loved the Transatlantic experience on Odyssey! This was our first TA and it was better than expected. This ship has so many different venues so we had plenty to do with 5 consecutive sea days. The first night was a little bumpy but after that smooth sailing. Really enjoyed the seminars in 260, playmakers to watch NFL football, fabulous shows/ acrobatics, slot pulls, and all the countries visited. ...
Overall we had a great time, first TA and won't be the last.
PROS:
- Newish ship, modern, beautiful common areas and spaces. 4200 passengers, so felt crowded but never had a problem getting a lounge chair by the pool, table at Windjammer or table at main dinning room.
- Crew: probably the best we had in all of our cruises, friendly, attentive and just have to ask once for "special ...
I’m currently on the Vision. To say the LEAST I’m disappointed and underwhelmed. The food has been disgusting and I can’t get iced tea after 10 pm or before 11:30 am. This is not my first time cruising on RC, I was on the Grandeur of the Sea before. My experiences comparatively have been night and day. The only thing that gets an A+ is our waiter in the main dining room (food also sukd). He was ...
The best way I can describe it is thinking you were going out for dinner and drinks at an upscale restaurant, and then winding up at applebees. My other frustration was skipping Bermuda because of the hurricane. Obviously weather cannot be controlled and safety always comes first. However, we were supposed to have an overnight stay at a beautiful island....and instead they stopped at port ...
Unfortunately I am surprised to have to write such a negative review. This was our 2nd cruise on RCC and our 4th cruise totally. Our plans were made with the assistance of a travel agent. My husband and I use wheelchairs to get around. We required assistance to our room to obtain a rental scooter reserved. We boarded the ship afte4 we search for help. They only could take us to the lobby not our ...
Lots of odd things brought this cruise down starting with the rather strange layout of the ship, the change to main dining times with both being brought forward 30 minutes, the very noisy main dining rooms thanks to the DD layout and of course the redirection of the ship due to hurricane Tammy. Boarding at Southampton was efficient as ever, Vigo was wet, I stayed on in Lisbon, the Canary Island ...
PREFACE
Although this is mostly a review of anthem of the seas and excursions taken during the cruise, i have included information on activities pre-cruise. The information about the land-based portion are integral to the trip because you may visit one or more of those locations before or during a cruise you take. I hope the information provided throughout this article will be helpful to you. ...
The Liberty of the Seas could not be less disability friendly. There is no room whatsoever in any of the dining areas on this ship for someone with a mobility issue. Only one of the theaters was handicap accessible. The elevators are a disgrace and all had issues during the trip with no repairs made, whatsoever. Even if they were all working, I could not get on in a timely manner before the ...
Left out of Bayonne, easy in and out. Went on a 5 day Bermuda cruise, celebrating my daughter’s MBA. Stayed in a spacious balcony room. Everything was great.
The only issue we had was the my time dining, which did not seem to be on our time but when a spot was available, which was late evening. Next time I would go with a designated time. Found the food better than Oasis of the Seas. ...
We chose this cruise because we were docked in Bermuda for 2 nights. One of the best islands we've been to. This being our second cruise on this ship we knew what to expect and frankly nothing changed for the better. RC still nickles and dimes you but they deliver plenty to do and you always feel comfortable with the line and what your experience will be. Food was mostly good especially Chops. ...
