We chose Silversea some 18 months ago, because we have cruised with Regent and Seabourn and wanted to make a comparison. Silver Muse was a perfect choice because of the destination and timing. The "new ship" factor also helped!
We traveled to Barbados independently on the day before we embarked the ship. We have been to Barbados many times, and our stay was entirely in our hotel. ...
Overall a very nice ship in appearance and space to passengers ratio was good. Will not be too judgemental but really expected more for the price and hype of advertising. Embassy suites is nice to stay at night before embarkation---Tip: arrive early for embarkation and miss the gaggle (as early as noon although cabin may not be ready until 2:00pm)...Majority of guests where from Europe (Great ...
This was our fourth trip with Silver Seas and it won't be the last. I'm a bit disappointed that we can't post these comments on TripAdvisor but hope they receive the same traction as we do on TA. We enjoy finer properties, service and staffing excellence and the Silver Wind did not disappoint in the slightest.
There were many shining stars on their team and the most notable where the ...
The cruise through the Caribbean Islands was lovely. Be aware the ship is quite small and book a mid ship cabin as to make sure there are not any rough days. We sailed from San Juan to Ft. Lauderdale with stops at many of the islands. The excursions were great with easy on and off the ship.
The service was fantastic! Having a butler for your cabin is very nice and be sure to have a ...
Booked with Silversea with high expectations, having been on two superb Seaborn cruises.
The suite was very dated with drab furnishings and what looked like the original 25 year old bathroom.shower in the small bath, difficult to access, nice toiletry.
Very little interesting activities on board, unless you like unaccompanied bridge!, or a wine tasting at 11am in the dining room.
The ...
Sailed luxury cruising (six star) several times but first time with Silversea Cruises.
1. First impression, embarkation smooth no long lines which was a plus point 1/2 glass of sparkling wine on arrival
2. Cabin old and tired. No champagne in cabin on arrival. No fresh fruit daily or coffee maker. Small bathroom, shower over bath showing its age. Very old and grey bathrobe. Had to ...
This was my first cruise with Silverseas and unfortunately it was not what I expected ! The ship was very " tired " and tatty in places, it is in my opinion ready for either a complete refurbishment or ready for retirement from the fleet. Cabins are definitely in need of upgrading, carpets were in need of replacing, no tea or coffee facilities and bathrooms were cold and tired. Balcony was rusty ...
Our second Silversea cruise, this one being for two weeks visiting 9 islands, with 2 days cruising each way. This is an excellent way to start and finish with no rush at the end - pleasantly relaxing with plenty of optional activities on the go.
Boarding was quick and efficient with suites ready early afternoon. Suites themselves are spacious, a separate walk in clothes cupboard, and a good ...
After 50+ cruises on the Big Boys RCCL, NCL, Celebrity and Disney ... it was time to experience what Silver Seas is all about.
We opted for a Silver Suite. If you read the brochure before hand, it says the Butler unpacks for you and makes your dinner reservations ... neither true.
Frankly unbeknownst to me most passengers had already signed up at the specialty restaurants.
We went to departed ...
My cruising experience has been a pattern of progression. My first it was a weekend Bahamas cruise on Royal Caribbean. After watching the belly flop contest I learned about Celebrity's promised "more upscale experience." It was then Millennium, followed by an Azamara to Silversea.
My lady friend and I found a great 7 day Caribbean bargain and decided to see if the "all inclusive" ...
