Dirty Ship with Lousy Food!

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Serenade of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We have been on 23 cruises, most with Royal Caribbean. This ship was not clean, food was terrible, up charge for lobster and filet mignon in the main dining room is ridiculous, nobody was at pasta station to serve in Windjammer, muster crew unaware how to direct passengers to proper location, price of drinks being $14 is too high, casino had mostly all progressive slots, bite size desserts are ...

Got a great offer,our 1st room was extremely loud from the engines,they moved us to a higher floor at center ship...They made up for it by paying our liquor bill...Very happy with there customer service.The only issue with the cabins is that there were no couches or chairs in them,and there was room for them.Guys burgers were amazing and the coffee was great.The other issue was that the pool it ...

Wonderful crew.

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Grandeur of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Because of the stops. Key West, Coco Cay, Nassau, and Bimini. Great talent on board. Room guy was great. Ship is old but wearing well. Going into rehab in March we were told. This ship usually does shorter cruises but this particular week it was 7 days. The food was mostly good but two times the meat was tougher than we are used to on Royal. Getting on and off the ship at all stops was a breeze. ...

Destinationless Voyage

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Serenade of the Seas

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

It was around hurricane Idalia and we were supposed to leave out of Tampa. The city closed down and the coast guard couldn't clear the ship to dock on time to pick us up on the day of. Boarding was delayed a day and the cruise was shortened by a day which means that we didn't have time to make it to our destination to Cozumel Mexico. I was one of the few disappointed people because I am not ...

Interesting First Cruise

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Paradise

BellaLuna1
First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

My husband and I decided to try a cruise for our 25th anniversary. We had no knowledge of different cruise lines, or age of ships, etc and assumed all cruise lines were basically the same. We chose this particular cruise because of the port of calls; Bimini and Nassau, both of which we wanted to see. On arrival to Tampa, and approaching the cruise terminal, we could see our ship, along with other ...

The most dissapointing cruise of 9 so far…

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Serenade of the Seas

CruiseGuy40
6-10 Cruises • Age 40s

I’ve been on 9 cruises and this was by FAR, and I mean by far the worst. I don’t even know where to begin. The ship is extremely out dated and small. Crowds everywhere since there was nothing to do. The itinerary and daily schedule was literally all fluff. Nothing standing out, no real shows, no comedy’s, no adult activities. Casino was half broken and so small you couldn’t walk around. Just ...

We chose this cruise for my husband’s birthday for the ports of call- Western Caribbean was a lifelong dream trip. The Odor of cigarettes and Weed was so STRONG It was unbelievable Overcrowded- people were packed like Sardines trying to get into the pool. People were running up and down the hallways all hours of the night yelling. Teenagers were LAYING in the stair wells ( Physically laying ...

The staff was very friendly! Especially our room steward Ketut! He was so polite and helpful. He really made us feel welcome.

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Paradise

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was our first cruise so we wanted to try a cheaper option. The ship did not disappoint. There were so many things to do and endless food options. While the buffet and pizza was delicious our favorite was the Guy Fieri burger place. The ship was very clean and all the staff were so helpful. Our favorite was the room steward Ketut. He was efficient and so helpful with any questions we had. We ...

Cruise was fun, leaves some things to be desired

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Paradise

irgjbrown
2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

The cruise was decent. I will say the food selections left a little to be desired. The food seemed like it wasn't as good as the last cruise we went on and the portions were way too small. Also, one pool for an entire ship worth of people is enough to make me not go on this cruise again. There we so many people crammed in the pool it was a bit much to try to find a spot to get in. Rinsing off in ...

Had a blast, but the Paradise leaves a lot to be desired!

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Carnival Paradise

2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

Room: We cruised with friends on the 7/24-7/29 sailing to Nassau and Bimini. The embarkation process went really smoothe, compared to other sailing we’ve been on. However, my family was on the 7th deck. Room was so hot! We asked for a Dan and luckily I had brought 2 usb fans after seeing reports from previous passengers that deck 7 rooms were hot. Unfortunately, that was not the only negative! We ...
