Caribbean Cruise Reviews

Missed the chocolates on the pillows at night. And the wine packages in dining room. Some dishes were really not very good. Also not impressed with quality of nightly shows.

This was our 2nd cruise. Loved the Islands, not sold on Royal Caribbean but it was a good time.

Great trip to get together with a group of old friends.

Bad News First: when making our reservation more that 6 months in advance, Cheap Cruises rep told us we could apply our CruiseNext credit later. NOT TRUE! If booking through a travel agent, you can only use a CruiseNext credit when reserving your Cruise. Cheap Cruises refused to own up to their mistake. So,, we paid $500 more for our Cruise than we should have. And then, while talking to a Cheap Cruises rep during this cruise about a future cruise (don't ask me why my wife called them), a different rep said the same thing! Do they really not know or is it a concerted effort to prevent people from using their CruiseNext deposit credits?! We are not going back to Cheap Cruises again.

Overcrowded ship (4600), but people were having a blast everywhere on the ship for the entire cruise. Never seen anything like this on 9 NCL cruises.

Overall, the ship was much better than Carnival. If you are with a family or large group, advance planning is essential. Getting lounge chairs in the pool area is sucked up fast and furious early in the morning. Great kids area on the pool deck area. Plenty of food places to get decent or great food. Plenty of bars and get the Premium plus drink package to get whatever you want and however much you want. Great staff, servers, and always helpful. Plan early as soon as you get on the boat. Also, if there is no reservations available, I was able to get in every event I wanted by getting there early on standby.

It was a nice cruise on a beautiful ship. NCL needed a lot more staff to care for the number of passengers on the ship and better bartender training. Fortunately, we purchased the drink package so we didn't have to pay for the bad drinks. It was just annoying to wait 15 minutes for a drink and get something that was undrinkable. If you want complimentary dining, book it the day you get on the ship... the same as if you are booking the specialty dining. Book your shows as soon as you get on the ship as well or you may not get in to see them.

Husband said this was the first and last cruise with Norwegian in a long time

Beautiful ship but very crowded at events due to number of passengers. Used to taking smaller ships, which I will go back to. NCL always has excellent entertainment!

This is our first cruise and we were pleased with our experience. It took a bit of exploring and time to figure out how things worked and we are so looking forward to another cruise in our future.

They went back to old style muster drill which is very crowded and hated by everyone. Crew staff was great cruise ship was great especially the solo area.

We enjoyed every moment of the trip. This was another great experience with Norwegian cruise line. They make you feel special. The spa on board was a great way to spend hours relaxing. The evening entertainment was so professional and fun. Already planning our next adventure on Norwegian.

My first and last cruise with Norwegian. And it’s not just me. My friend went on a shorter one a week earlier and told me she couldn’t wait to get off the boat too.

I believe this was our 5th royal cruise, second on Jewel which was supposed to be redone after first time we had been on but definitely didn’t show it, probably looking for another cruise line next time

Overall, I had a better time than expected. This was my first cruise. I also recommend this time of year because there are almost no kids, which was great because kids are gross.

Excellent live music and dancing opportunities. Food was okay. Service was great. Nice ship. However I came home with covid19 and many other folks onboard had covid19 or strep throat and stomach flu tooo!

This was my son and I first vac and cruise after 6 years ! We did enjoy ourselves and we don’t regret anything! 12 days is a little too long for us and there were hardly any people 30-50 on this cruise . Most people were over 65 and that’s ok too but my son likes to move fast around the ship lol ! I regret purchasing the Vibe Pass as I hardly used it and often it was closed due to dangerous weather or too windy to enjoy one self ! It’s a lot of money and I wish I never bought it . Overall the ship is beautiful and we never went hungry ! The mojito bar was phenomenal and just wish all the drinks didn’t taste like fruit juice ( and I hardly drink lol ) food was decent and Norwegian needs better entertainment and more hosted events for younger crowds.

We totally enjoyed the 3 night cruise on Carnival Liberty

Itinerary was decent; weather was unbearable; entertainment was good but food was terrible. Service was ok

The cruise was good. Met many nice people. The staff that service me was great but the food and beverage buyer needs to be replace.
