Think twice before booking on vision by Beand2407

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Vision of the Seas

I'm having a difficult saying anything good about my 12 days on the ship. I was excited to be back on a smaller ship and if there weren't so many issues I would have been extremely happy. My group started having issues on day one and it never stopped. It wasn't until the final day that some truly listened. He had no idea how bad the heat and smell was in my cabin because the other departments never reported the issues. The fecal odor in the cabin and hallway was so bad it made me physically ill. It hurts me to say i would not recommend this ship. Im still going to sail RCCL but I think only on newer ships .

Great itinerary, good sailing, excellent performances by production staff and mainliners, new food program needs a lot of work by mjkb

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Voyager of the Seas

The cruise was excellent with good staff. RCI is having problems switching over their food program from what it was ( excellent ) to what it is becoming a limited, mass appeal approach with no room for individuality.

Enjoyable by gk65294895

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Voyager of the Seas

We found vendors on numerous islands to be very pushy and unfriendly. They were argumentative and did not truthfully disclose actual costs upfront. We would not want to visit several of these islands again.

Exciting Action packed cruise by gacritter

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Voyager of the Seas

Very fun active cruise! Did not love the new menu format. I have a picky eater in the group and it was hard to get something for him.

We love booking with Joseph Parks at BJ's Travel. He is great and always has the best recommendations. Royal Caribbean did an excellent job and we would book with them again! Thank you!

So many opportunities for improvements by gpf

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Dawn

Overall the experience was nice because of all the ports and the weather. I guess it's all about what you can make of a poor situation.

Wonderful by dietercruise

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Dawn

Ship is old, 2 specialty restaurants great, tour planning staff all confused, go to theater, then no go to pier, then make line, then no go elsewhere, then new line, every port the same, tours were great, did not stop at Puerto Plata, it was a reason we booked this trip, gave us Puerto Rico, last 4 cruises a nice stop was removed and got Puerto Rico, ship was understaffed, sure a lot of people will complain on this, theater show was great, many seats are broken, never fixed, it goes down to far u slide off, back ache when leaving, shows were great, most issues is ship and understaffed and no training. Not AA fault, but my list is to long

We will never sail on Norwegian again! by archpot3

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Dawn

In our 42 cruises we have never felt so unwelcome aboard a ship. We used to love going with Norwegian, but we will never book another cruise with them. They beat us all to death with their plugs for future cruise certificates in the Atrium, while people tried to eat and talk to each other in O'Sheehan's. The music was too loud in most venues. The food was the worst we have encountered.

Great Experience by lrobisto

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Getaway

over all cruise was good. not going to the DR made the trip home too long. this was the second cruise in a row that they didnt go to the DR, not buying the reason for not going was weather. booking through was great and loved the extra perks. Just wish we would have known what they were up front.

Just ok by CarolK69

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Getaway

We have been on over 50 cruises and by far this was the worse experience we ever had. Will not be traveling on NCL again. Maybe it is just this ship because we took the cruise around Hawaii on NCL and it was nice.

Horrible Cruise by 2wings

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Getaway

We will never, ever cruise on NCL again. They kept us on the ship longer than I could ever have imagined and it was not pleasant.

Pleasant 1st Cruise by gouk88

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Dawn

Overall a decent first cruise. Just not our thing really since there are so many people in a small area almost all of the time.

The cruise was very nice by loosebopp1936

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Odyssey of the Seas

We tried to change cabins, but we’re told none were available. However according to the captain when he gave a talk on the ship, that the ship was not at full capacity. We even offered to pay for an upgrade. I am a diamond member and was very disappointed to be put in that state room. That is no way to treat loyal members.
