Southern Caribbean Gourmet Food Cruises Cruise Reviews

We want to keep this short: Staff is still an 8 out of 10. Thank you, Celebrity Cruises. We have now decided to not book Celebrity again due to one big problem and a few small. The big problem is the food. Main Dining Room was so bad on 6 out of 12 nights. The other nights were - let's say okay. Nothing compares to years ago. It's just sad and bad. Further problems included ...

We chose this cruise based on the ship and the length of time for the trip which was 12 nights. There were many good things about this adventure such as the solarium and the service…the staff really works hard to keep everyone happy. We ate at 2 specialty restaurants called Tuscan and Murano and the food and service was excellent…there were 4 in our group and we all felt the meal at Murano was the ...

This was our first cruise since February 2020 -- we had five cruises cancelled over the (to date, still ongoing) pandemic. (As a point of reference: we've done 27 cruises prior to this on Royal, Carnival, Celebrity, and HAL.) About ten days prior to sailing, an appellate court struck down the mask mandate for public transportation (this will be relevant later). Due to dropped balls on our travel ...

This was our 23 Carnival cruise and was extremely disappointed. Upon our first use of shower the bathroom flooded. The first meal staff was scraping and stacking our plates at our table as we ate desert. We were served raw and I mean raw meat twice on lido. The eggs looked like soup. Everything was Luke warm at best many items have been removed. Only half the buffet was open on a full ship. ...

We chose this cruise because it was school vacation week and we wanted to take a cruise longer than a week. The ship itself was very clean and the staff were exceptional. The decor is a bit outdated, felt like a casino in the mid west. The outdoor pool is small. The deck layout around it very crowded. The solarium pool is also small. The activities on board were geared for an older crowd. The ...

Cruise was fine til I broke 2 toes after I fell transitioning from the Hot tube to the deck. there was an area that was uneven and there were no wet floor signs. I think the deck is slippery and I have very good balance and haven't fallen on over 20 years. Medical staff were great but I was in a boot and wheelchair for the rest of the cruise. Dinning staff were excellent and staff in general ...

Our cabin steward was great and our dining room waiters are great but the pool attendants and buffet attendants left a lot to be desired. The main problem that we encounter with Holland American is that there are pool chair hogs with chairs being blocked out and no attendant is interested in sorting this out.. On one afternoon I counted 222 chairs across from us that never had anyone in them ...

We were finally able to take our cruise on the Celebrity Silhouette after a two year hiatus due to COVID. Headed to Fort Lauderdale the day before our departure. Stayed at the Riverside Hotel for the one night prior to our cruise. Excellent location right on Las Olas Boulevard. The hotel was very nice. Highly recommend. We had a departure time of 1:30pm but had already had our transportation ...

This was our 5th. Seabourn cruise , the final sailing from Barbados for the winter Caribbean season. Many highlights included, a seamless embarkation , with only 6 others guests at a time, a great Barbados band before sail away, large expanse of glass looking onto the balcony, gracious crew, a guest lecturer , great shows , lots of great movies, superb Helen deLange trio in the Club, and ...

I won this trip and explained to Seabourn that I use a wheelchair at times since I have a very bad knee. I filled out paperwork online and when we got there in St. Maarten they had no real ramp to get my chair up. They had a bunch of steps and some weird panels that they had to close, but it was not made for people in a wheelchair. A man from the ship helped to push it up, but it was very ...
