Seabourn Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) Cruise Reviews

This was our first Seabourn cruise we usually sail with Celebrity. I had always heard great things about Seabourn so my expectations were very high. We were on a 12 day Caribbean cruise on the Odyssey which holds approx 450 passengers. The itinerary was great and included smaller Islands as the ship was small enough to get in to these ports-we tendered 3 times and we missed one stop because ...

This was my first Seabourn cruise, having previously sailed with Crystal one can't help comparing experiences. However, there is little I can say about Seabourn that would compare favourably, or entice me to sail with Seabourn in the future. Overall it was a dull experience, I did not find the ship to be well laid out, I found the decor bland, ceilings low, generally lacking in colour with ...

We just left a 12 day cruise on Odyssey--had a suite with a veranda on 9th floor, and are non smokers. We were lucky? enough to have on either side of us 4 chain smokers- who due to no smoking in suites, decided to camp out morning, noon, afternoon and evening on their verandas smoking, drinking, playing cards-living on the veranda. We couldn't use our veranda due to noise and smoke at all ...

A long review! Let me say up front; it was a wonderful cruise. I will share the good and the bad, and in spite of some hiccups, we already booked another Seabourn cruise while onboard. As you read this review, for perspective, please know that we are not difficult nor do we require anything special. We are in our 60’s and have sailed on more than 60 cruises including 3 on Seabourn. We ...

We did a T/A stopping in Maderia. Then 2 weeks of Western Med. stopping everyday! Like the sea days better. Barcelona to Rome and back with different ports. We had sailed on the Quest last year and loved it! Same cabin type V5 deck 6 cabin 640 perfect location. Just steps away from everything. Food was good, a few dishes didn't make the mark but over all very nice. The MDR could be slow in ...

What can I say. It was perfect. We had one of those new Spa Suites. They are worth every penny. Huge balcony overlooking the back of the ship. Suite: Bright, well furnished, top notch amenities. Huge bath, fantastic shower, 2 fridges (one for drinks the other for daily changing health drinks. Fabulous stewardess. Only draw back: micro fibre bedding [yuk] Food: Restaurant 2 was out ...

We sailed on a back to back cruise on the Quest leaving out of Fort Lauderdale for Europe. We had sailed on the Quest nice before a year earlier. With few exceptions we found the ship and staff some of the best we've ever experienced. We always marvel at the personal service and name recognition. How do they do it? We were confidentially told that the staff is quizzed on name recognition ...

Let's start with the good, then go to the bad, and the ugly. The staff was outstanding - a bunch of hard-working, thoughtful and perceptive young people. They knew your name and your preferences. They were on the J-O-B 24-7. The entertainment - the pianist and the magician - comedian were outstanding (conversely, the historian was a twerp and should not be permitted to do another ship - he ...

If you're thinking of jumping ship from a mainstream cruise line and fancy giving Seabourn a try hopefully this somewhat extended review will prove useful. One of the difficulties I found was that a lot of the reviews out there are written by long time Seabourn customers who have certain expectations and if they aren't met their writing is biased towards those variations from tradition. If the ...

By way of introduction we are a couple in our 60’s and have been on more than 65 cruises. For the past ten years we have sailed mostly with Silversea, Regent, and Oceania. This was our first Seabourn cruise since being on the Legend when it was first put into service many years ago. I know many of the readers of this review will be seasoned “Sojourner’s” but here goes….. Embarcation was a breeze ...
