Caribbean - Southern Cruise Reviews

Food Quality on this Trip out of Puerto Rico was terrible. Avoid this Ship at all Costs if you enjoy fine dining. Avoid Chefs Table! Ship is clean and well maintained Itinerary is very Busy No days at sea. I have been on over 50 Cruises and this one will be a bad memory. Royal must do Better to get my Vacation Dollars.

Nice that this cruise hits many islands in the Caribbean.

We enjoyed the many islands that we got to visit. Each had their own uniqueness. We learned so many new things on this trip. We visited the Easternmost point in the US. And underground caves. A great trip.

The was not our best cruise. It rained every day, and NCL did not step up and compensate for the bad weather very well. We had to have our Gold Member discounts applied retroactively and it just seemed like the entire crew wasn't on the ball. Just a lot of little nitpicky things that we had to compensate for, take time our of our enjoyment of the cruise to deal with, and other things like that.

We may not return to Princess due to our names appear on the door do not think it is safe The medallion is not our favorite.

Overall the cruise was average, Service was excellent food was average. Comedy was above average. The spa experience was very nice. the mineral bath and the serenity rooms were excellent. Room service was timely and the food was delivered as ordered with only one exception. Andrea the room steward was very attentive and more than met our needs. The available tv channels was the low point. One news source one music channel the announcements could not be heard in the state room . No sports bar the nbr i and two teams playing not available on board. Sports not available on state room tv worsst of any cruise i have been on.

Our first Celebrity cruise and it exceeded our expectations

In spite of the stresses related to traveling to meet the ship, when you arrive it makes it all very worthwhile once you are aboard. All of the tension melts aways and that is your reward. This cruise was our second with Celebrity and we would highly recommend them to travelers that would just like to relax over some cocktails and great food as well as enjoying the entertainment they have to offer. Being a smaller ship, things are much less hectic or crowded. They don't offer exotic water slides, go carts and zip lines, just a lot of deck chairs and quiet places here and there throughout the ship where one can find some "alone time". The tours they offer on the islands are exciting and adventurous enough to please anyone. Most enjoyable.

Staff was fantastic. Ship was spotless. Entertainment was a bit light. Aquaclass wasn't worth it for us but we did enjoy the blu dining. Drink package was great. Itinerary was great for seeing the eastern Caribbean.

The head waiter Gabriel was EXCELLENT I have been on over 100 cruises and never had any interaction with the head waiter .. this guy went above and beyond.. as well as Christian and Anjoy

The cruise experience was grear, the staff amazing, the ports were a short stay but very good

Disappointed with tour. They posted a change to the cancellation policy recently.

It was a nice leisurely cruise. The islands were sleepy, not as sleek as I anticipated. I enjoyed getting to know more about the islands, the people and their history.

Overall we love cruising on Celebrity. It is our first choice still. The food, staff & activities are all excellent and the ports of call meet our adventurous spirits.

We cruised in Aqua Class and really enjoyed that experience. In every restaurant, the food was high quality and the service was excellent. Activities were also fun and varied for indoor and outdoor interests. Ports of call were all incredible and there was a good variety of excursions. We really liked the Cruise Director Eddy for his knowledge and enthusiasm. We think this may have been our favorite cruise of all time.

First cruise since the COVID pandemic. Overall, we had an very enjoyable and relaxing cruise, as always. We enjoy cruising on Celebrity. The ship’s staff were very friendly. The food was plentiful and good. Entertainment was ok, seen better on other cruises. Poor ship layout design, but not a deal breaker. Hopefully. as we and the cruise industry recover from the COVID pandemic things will improve and return to normal. Until then, I will continue cruising. Next cruise in February on Carnival Vista. Looking forward to it.

Fantastic ship for it's size and price. Everything was new, the only negative was the lack of alcohol options (supply chain issues??), some bars ran out of items, or not all bars carried every option. For a 7 day trip the food options are great, for longer trips, you need to hit a few specialty restaurants to add variety. And sailing in Nov was mostly seniors (myself included 68y) and few children.

We did not get to visit 2 ports, Cozumel and the Bahamas, due to Tropical Storms Lisa and Nicole. We'd recommend not cruising during hurricane system (June thru November in the Caribbean. Weather during this time is also very hot and humid, witnessed when visiting the 3 islands!

This trip was a mixed bag. The ship was beautiful, and the staff was great, and the room was perfect. The food was excellent, and the stops were very nice. The amount of extra fees to do things and the lack of availability for shows and activities was very disappointing. The size of the venues was a challenge to get in and enjoy them. I would recommend it, but maybe only for a 5 or 7 day max.

Pre-pandemic, NCL was my preferred line. I cruise for enjoyment, to get away from the day-to-day. This cruise, starting with the ship, did not allow that. I felt cramped and crowded, and I also felt nickeled and dimed to death, as if NCL was trying to recover its lost 3 years' profits in one fell swoop. The cost of premium internet was too high, and even worse when you consider how often it did not work. If i could get my money back, I would ask for it. The Internet Staff Person was great. She tried very hard to solve what she could, and she always did it with a smile. But the issue was the internet itself. I know she caught hell from several people, yet, she was always professional, courteous, and efficient. She deserved a better internet interface!
