Caribbean - Southern Cruise Reviews

Fun cruise with a well thought out itinerary. The dining rooms were nice with great options. The specialty dining rooms were amazing. The bars seemed well stocked and the staffed worked hard. My only regret is not booking a Haven suite...

Why did we choose this cruise? Because of the itinerary, the size of the ship (not a huge monster ship) and the convenience of getting to Baltimore from our house, without flying. What made our cruise a success? The dedication and hard work of the 800 or so crew members, from 59 countries.

I was happy that the cruise was over...hated the new menus, the Diamond Lounge is to far away and accessible by one elevator as the other one was broken 1/2 the time and I got tired of hearing only Latin or Caribbean music.

This certainly was not a bad cruise but it also was not a great one either.

We love going out of Baltimore, it is a close drive for us and easy to get to. I would recommend this area to anyone. I have only used RCL but have been happy with the 5 cruises we have taken out of Baltimore. Enchantment is a great ship with a good staff, they visit some good port of calls. We enjoyed all the entertainment that we chose to go too. The Crown and Anchor Lounge is a beautiful place to take a quite moment or longer to read, play a card game and have a drink.

If you want a relaxing vacation, take one of the smaller ships—the enchantment is our favorites. It is old and worn ( but at 73 so am I 😂) Easy to get around and smaller venues. If you want water slides, and shopping malls, go on the larger ships—the big ships are great for family’s and kids.

Really enjoyed this ship. Not too small or too big. So many options to do things. oved the shows and the entertainment overall was great.

great cruise. because we'd been to these ports before we stayed on ship. ship was fulla nd seemed crowded so we enjoyed port days and an almost empty ship. as every other cruise, sea days were hectic. have to get up very early to get deck chairs. we had classic beverage and basic wifi packages for free and were asked often to upgrade. basic wifi very slow but lived with it. and classic beverage gives drinks up to $10 and seemed like drinks prices went up to $11 and $12. so we drank cheaper drinks. and on lobster nite got one tail. charge for second tail plus 18% gratuity, i can almost understand charge but adding gratuity seemed absurd. loved our captain who was very funny and shared his Irish wisdom with us. Enjoyed captain club events. CC staff great.

The cruise was one of our best experiences and we will be doing it again!

This was out third time on Grandeur, we do enjoy the size of the the ship. Easier to get around, and also you get to know the staff and they actually recognize you and get to know you.

Overall we had a great time. I would NOT go on that class ship again as the entertainment options were very limited.

Our first cruise since Covid. Definitely looking forward to our next adventure.

I would like to suggest that free three drink limit for Captain’s club members should not be just for 5-7pm only. You should be allowed to use your drinks at anytime during the day and then once they are used you pay for any other drinks. Consuming 3 drinks in 2 hrs is not healthy and for someone who has diabetes like myself, I found that I took my last drink to the dining room with me and that was frowned on.

A really windy experience for much of our time at sea!

I don't think that the overall price I paid for this cruise was worth my money. Not sure if I would cruise with Norwegian again. Very disappointed overall. This was my grand childrens first cruise and they were very unhappy. Also, since I am a smoker I think that there should be a little more space for the smokers. All we had was a very small spot on the upper deck and it was always packed full not even enough room to sit,always had to stand up. If it rained you were getting wet because of the location.

if you are cruising on ncl get a suite. also since my wife don't drink but I drink a little check your in room account daily they will charge you for drinks you did not order the over charged me over 120 dollars which they corrected don't get off boat until you check your bill and bring it up to restaurant manager not front desk

We live in Tampa so it is so easy to leave from here, but you get older ships like the Dawn. The food was excellent and the ports were great. Most of the excursions are over priced and they were not what the excursion description stated so that was disappointing. The staff was great. This was our first Norwegian cruise and we were surprised there were no washers and dryers on board (we've cruised 3 other lines that have them).

Just pick another cruise. Now....if you ate very old and don't wish to leave the ship and ho to bed at 7pm. This cruise is perfect for you.

Another Great Cruise - 3 in 1 celebration Valentines, Birthday & Super bowl. Love the departure port - easy for us with family nearby, easy on easy off the ship. Birthday present for my hubby and Valentines day for us - makes planning easy plus bonus super bowl party on the ship is fun. - the TRifecta We had friends and some family join us this year so we had a total of 6 people - 3 rooms and cruising is nice, if communication is established - do it your way or meet up. I do wish the ncl app was free to use for communication between cruisers - it is $10 per person. Even if it were 10$ per cabin covering 2 people it would be more reasonable to text with each other about where your at etc. But you can call and leave messages on the room and this ship size is usually small enough that you will run into each other soon enough.

Definitely the most disappointing cruise we have been on. Cruised Celebrity in December, not one complaint. We have also sailed Princess, Seabourn, Royal Caribbean, NEVER again on Norwegian
