Caribbean - Southern Cruise Reviews

drunk loud, children next to our room very loud loud people taking too .uch food on plate and leaving half on plate

This was my 10th cruise. The only disappointment I felt was with my time dining. During lunch on the day we boarded, we attempted to make reservations on the RCCL app. The only reservation times available (for any day of the cruise) started at 8:30 pm. We talked to the dining room, and they had us come back each night at 6:30. They did find us a table each night. One night we had some wait staff that told one person in our party he was sorry the soup was hot but since we arrived late to dinner, she needed to hurry. To us, we weren’t late, but on time. Our other wait staff was exceptional!

Great cruise. It was very active since it stopped at a port every day. So if you are looking for down time, this itinerary isn’t for you. If you love island hopping, sign up now. Don’t let the ship age scare you. It is well maintained and beautiful!!!

This cruise was a long time in coming (due to Covid rescheduling) but it was worth the wait! Highly recommend the Southern Caribbean itinerary. We felt the Magic was the perfect ship for this cruise.

The itinerary change caused by a mechanical problem with the ship really detracted from our overall experience. This change led to the ship arriving in Aruba very late in the day limiting or eliminating excursion opportunities. There was less time spent in both Aruba and Curacao than stated in the original itinerary which was very disappointing. Overall we just don't feel that at least on this cruise Holland America delivered the experience that we were expecting.

Generally I was disappointed with this cruise. I been on many cruises and the service on the cruises should be the number one priority besides safety of course. Guest services really surprised me with the lack of empathy I got at the desk. The need more supervision on the floor at peak times in all areas.

Our previous RC cruise experience was very good, prompting us to use them again. This cruise, however, was very disappointing.

As a first time experience we had a blast , so fun.

The cruise was so enjoyable and the ports of call allowed us to see 6 countries in 6 days.

The staff was amazing! Ship was smaller than we were used to but it was still a fun time

Very good ports of call. Of all of them, I'd say St. Lucia was most disappointing but perhaps it was our choice of a boring excursion that is coloring our view. Oranjestad (Aruba) and Willemstad (Curacao) are easily explored on foot right from the pier. Beautiful cities with much to see and do. St. Kitts was also splendid. somehow we missed one of our stops ... not sure why

Cruise was great a time, the ship has a lot to do if you want to or just sit back and relax. Food was excellent and all of the staff.

Friends 50th birthday! We expected more parties on sail offs or just anything other than newlywed games

A great cruise experience that exceeded my expectations. Very much like before Covid. One thing to keep in mind, transportation costs on the islands in the Caribbean are very high as gasoline approached $19 per gallon. Be prepared for some pricey cab fares and other transportation expenses. The people of the islands were very happy to see the return of tourists and were extremely friendly.

We loved and recommend this cruise to anyone. 6 ports in 6 days keeps you busy as much as you want as each port is excellent.

It was a very relaxing cruise with great food, great entertainment and great service!

this was my first cruise and i am planning my next two cruises already fell in love

One of our parties couldn't make the trip on the day of embarkation. Carnival kept our money and didn't allow us to use the second room that we paid for. I feel that they should allow us to use the room that we paid for or refund that room charge.

I would gladly sail again on the Millennium as everyone on board makes me feel wanted, special, like royalty! I love the ship and the people and hope to see them soon! 2 wonderful weeks this March!

Loved this ship. We are sailing on it again in February 2024.
