"The only thing luxurious about this cruise was the price.
We have cruised many lines but the best was the standard provided on Seabourn and that is our benchmark because Seabourn is truly a luxury line.

1-10 of 29 Silversea Silver Whisper Cruise Reviews for Fitness Cruises to the Caribbean
This should have been an outstanding cruise, but, it was extremely inconsistent. The positives were:
The Wait Staff were outstanding. They were efficient, professional, and an out standing group of individuals. Gilbert, thr Maitre d'hotel is a master.
We had the best butler we have ever had aboard a cruise. The housekeepers were very good.
The entertainment was very, very good. The ...
Selected cruise because it was presumed to be an upscale line. It was upscale in many respects but failed in others. Good food, excellent service and mostly a well trained staff. Ship layout lacked some of the features found on Seabourn. Out butler was not trained and was virtually useless. Service in the dining room was unreasonably slow. Wait time between courses averaged 20 or more minutes in ...
Even though we had a nice Silver Suite 728, there was loud banging in the middle of the night that woke me several times. I guess our suite was next to a noisy location.
Small bed, they said it was a queen but it’s the smallest queen bed I’ve ever seen. Food was mediocre at best. I found plastic shards in my burger, that they had the nerve to call a Waygu Beef Burger. My last morning I ...
We were there for purely for pleasure; getting pampered with superior service. The staff is superb and eager to please; this certainly makes up for a few minor things that were less than perfect.
There appear to be small areas that suggest a management drive to reduce the cost of operating. Examples include (a) a very narrow selection of beer options (without paying extra) (b) nightly show ...
The SILVER WHISPER is a very comfortable small cruise ship only carrying about 350 passengers. We never had to wait in line for anything. The stateroom was spacious and well designed. The bathroom, huge for a ship, included both an area for the shower and a separate tub. There was a huge walk in storage closet, almost a mini cabin in the cabin. Service in the cabin was excellent. Breakfast ...
Loved my last and first Silversea cruise 5 years ago and was hoping my second one would be as wonderful----it was not. For some stupid reason the company and captain decided to replace some of the pool deck while at sea on the cruise (there was no immediate need to fix or replace and after they almost finished---it didn't look much different than before). It was EXTREMELY disrupted with 1/4 of ...
Wanted a relaxing, quiet cruise to Caribbean but instead experienced a nightmare. Silversea had preplanned a renovation of the pool deck prior to the cruise commencing without any prewarning so we could choose an alternative. The work involved installed two large tents over parts of the deck where Contractors flown in from Italy ripped up the deck, put down new teak and then large sanders . The ...
This cruise was chosen because it was convenient with bridge and hosts.
Bridge was fair to poor and not enough players. The teacher was uninteresting.
Food was best of over 50 cruises. La Terazza, the Italian restarant could hold its own in N.Y. or Italy with great food and super service, as well as a wide variety of wines.
Crew was excellent, accomodating and very pleasant except for ...
We hate to fly, so this cruise attracted us because we could drive to NY and avoid one flight. Sailing out of NY Harbor at sunset is an incomparable experience. Destinations were well chosen and sailing was quite smooth - little motion. Food quality was excellent and service above average. Selection of house wines and premium wines was very good. Bar service excellent. We spent 3-4 days at sea, ...
We recently returned from our first cruise on a Silverseas ship. We booked a Veranda room and were very satisfied. The veranda itself isn't large, but it was sufficient. Our room was nice, especially for a cruise ship. The bathroom was also a good size. Our butler was great. Matter of fact, the whole staff was great - not one person disappointed us. We were very impressed with the food and ...
