Caribbean Cruise Reviews

Our 39th year anniversary celebration trip and it was terrible!! We upgraded to a junior suite to celebrate the occasion the room smelled like sewage the whole trip and we couldn't go on the balcony without gagging. Spoke to the staff several time and was told they are working on it. Definitely not a good way to celebrate out 39th anniversary. BIG LET DOWN!! One day after returning we both had COVID, may from the raw sewage coming in our room.

This was a Christmas cruise so lots of families were on board and it was terrific. The holiday spirit was all around the ship and passengers. The ship was decorated well for the holidays. The weather was horrible for the Caribbean but the ship was comfortable despite the rainy and cold weather. The ship's dining experience was good and the service all over was well done. I'd do this again but would pray for better weather.

I have taking a lot of cruises, but this is probably one of the worst

Wonderful Christmas cruise. One of the best I have been on. Cookie was amazing. Staff was attentive and the ship was beautiful.

This was my second Royal cruise and my husband's first. I wanted him to have a great experience so that we could do more. Wonder of the seas did not disappoint in areas like the room, cleanliness, service, but when it came to food we were not happy. We do understand when trying to feed so many food can be bland but perhaps options of both would have been better.

Overall, I had a great time. The ship was amazing and the activities were plentiful.

This is a great cruise for families. The captain is so friendly and accessible. We saw him throughout the ship, he had a Captain's talk one day where we could ask him questions, he announced birthdays daily. The staff are super friendly and did a great job all week. It was a very relaxing trip.

Our NCL Bliss cruise on Dec 17 - Dec 24, 2022 was very enjoyable with connecting balcony cabins for our 5 adults. The adult kids found all of the hidden bars the first afternoon while we didn't find them till mid-week. If you have food allergies, you need to meet with the restaurant staff as soon as you get aboard and you will place your order for that night. Each night you will place your meal order for the next day, so be patient that dinners will be 2 to 2.5 hour events. Suggestion: Bring cards that have your allergies to the meal so that they can write them down each day. The entertainment was amazing -Six and Jersey Boys were wonderful and the Live the Beatles group was great. The ship is well designed and has tons of cabin storage space.

The bliss is a beautiful ship with the amazing Observation lounge. The service is not to the per-pandemic level we experienced this same week & itinerary in 2019. Be prepared for slow service and book all activities as soon as possible ahead of time. Consider hanging out in Spice H2O while docked at some of the smaller ports,, they just aren't worth it.

Awesome cruise, musicians, food and beverage, port stops, everything was perfect!

It was an excellent way to spend the holidays! We will do it again.

I will give it 6 stars in ac scale of 1-5. Much better that what we was expecting (first cruse for us). A week with 4 stops was also perfect in length. The ship, New Amsterdam was the smallest in Fort Lauderdale but for us without kids it was perfect size.

The weather really dampened our trip which of course is not in NCL’s control. However I do wish the cruise line had been better prepared to handle all the people who had to stay indoors on the ship by adding activities or entertainment options throughout the day as a plan B since almost no one got off in the rain at each port. Or better yet, changing the itinerary if possible to avoid the weather.

Feel like NCL has worsened significantly. I bought a suite (and paid $250 more per person) that was essentially a balcony with no special benefits (some in cabin cookies and sparkling wine). Was a joke, Feel like they took advantage of us.

Was not wow-ed by my Celebrity Apex experience. It is actually making me contemplate cancelling our cruise on the Beyond later this year. The new class of ships did NOT live up to the hype.

Quality is down from past trips :( entertainment was the most disappointing part of the trip.

I may try Celebrity again, but it won't be any time soon.

My first cruise, and I look forward to the next; based on the excellent service provided in all areas, and the satisfaction I had while cruising.

This was our second MSC Cruise. Our first MSC cruise was a 4 day in August 2022 on the Divina. When we boarded our cabin was not cleaned. The mattress cover was stained and dirty. Not a very good first impression, The cabin crew deep cleaned our cabin and after that our cruise experience was wonderful. Excellent service, food and entertainment. Our experience on the Meraviglia was terrible. Overbooked, too crowded and our party of seven came home very ill, one with Covid and others with flu symptoms.

Overall this cruise was a good Christmas Cruise and our 1st cruise after Covid. We choose the cruise based off of ports rather than ship since this was the 3rd cruise on the Magic.
