We had picked this cruise for the itinerary, but were a little wary about Regent after having made an itinerary choice on another NCL line (Oceania) last year and been badly let down. I was concerned that Regent would be an "all inclusive" version of Oceania, but I was very happily completely wrong. Aside from the quirks dealing with 'Miami" beforehand (I suspect that all NCL brand passengers ...
This was our 14 th cruise with various lines but our first with celebrity. We did 3 nights in Singapore at the beginning of our cruise and added 3nights in Hongkong after the cruise.
Certainly Hongkong is a must see city worthy of anyone’s wish list.Having said that so is Singapore.
The cruise was everything we could have hoped for .Cabin was concierge deck 9 with good size balcony.Solstice ...
Starting in Singapore and travelling around Malaysia, Vietnam & Thailand - this itinerary ticked a lot of boxes for my partner and I to enjoy two weeks in South East Asia with only having to unpack once!
As Australians, we have been to some of the ports below such as Phuket, Ho Chi Minh & KL - this was a great opportunity to slow down our pace compared to some of the other cruises we have been ...
After my 5 cruise in 12 month , Encore was my first time , its bit larger than the quest or odyssey but that means there is better shows and 600 pax , si I like to point out that the food was exceptional better than the 4 previous crises with seabourn , perhaps the area and quality of all the ingredients. in Asia myght have a role , the fruits on board where all incredible specially the water ...
I wanted to start off stating that we are American. This ship was created specifically for the Asian market. I've read terrible reviews and since we had a great experience, I wanted to share our review.
The Pros:
-The service was top notch. Where ever we were on the ship, we were provided with excellent service and the crew were always smiling and willing to assist.
-The quality of food ...
This is a very comfortable ship which is spotlessly clean and which has excellent friendly staff.
Our Neptune suite had a comfortable 3 seater lounge and 2 queen sized beds as we elected to have the very large dual mattress bed separated so as not to disturb one a other. The balcony was extremely spacious.
The onboard entertainment was impressive. The choice of eating venues was enjoyable. ...
This cruise was absolutely amazing and a great way to return from Singapore. The ship itself is beautiful and there are amazing places everywhere we went. My personal favourite venues onboard were the Rooftop Garden, Eden and the Grand Plaza. I cannot fault the ship in any way at all. I also have to say that I don't know if it was because the weather was great or not, but not once did we feel any ...
On the whole we would rate the ship 9.5 /10
So firstly the positives
It was a bit chaotic getting onto the ship we believe this was because of the Singapore immigration procedures and other ports of call immigration requirements
We had a cabin with an infinite veranda (mixed opinions )when we opened the window in the places were the humidity was high these caused the mirrors to steam ...
This is our third trip on Nautica. We stopped for two years because of Covid
On this trip
- the food is excellent
- the staff is ver friendly and courteous
- the room stewards ( ours is May ) are superb
But
- The internet service is one person per cabin, even though we paid for two people. Website misleading, only states free internet no mention of restrictions per cabin
- ...
My first trip to Asia and I am so glad I could travel on my home away from home - Oceania Cruise Line. The crew of the Nautica was so welcoming, the right balance of professional and friendly. We spent 41 days on board from Singapore to Barcelona. My only regret really is that the timing for this cruise was pushed back a bit, so instead of sailing in March it was in May. This meant that we were ...
