Lackluster sampler cruise by 3rotor

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Quantum of the Seas

If you are a first time cruiser you'll love it, if you are not then you wont. RC do well to be organised, and quite a clean ship and good crew. Pricing for things has skyrockets post covid, and the quality is defiantly showing. The RC app is totally broken you cant message anyone in your party - so youll need internet or the KEY to plan things and contact people. I wouldn't cruise on this ship if you are foodie, nor if you have kids or plan to use the kids club. Quantum lacks the intimacy that you would get on smaller ships. Go if you are celebrating a birthday or with your mates for shag and drink.

not what we were use to by deltastu

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

The ship was nice, the staff was great, but the food was terrible. Some stuff was good, but not enough for me to write home about. Also, one good thing is jeans are allowed in dining room and jacket and tie are not required. Smaller portions were great (less to throw away). Everyday seemed like the same food and not very tasty. If you lower your expectations, you won't be so disappointed.

Great Culinary Cruise by leonardx

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Queen Elizabeth

This was a great short 'Culinary Cruise' on Queen Elizabeth. We enjoyed excellent service and met up with some wonderful people. We particularly enjoyed the presentations by some of Australia's top chefs and food and wine experts and meeting with them.

Fantastic cruise by kerriemm

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Grand Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

I really loved my trip. I went with a group of 15 age range 83 to 14. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and their weren't many complaints. I heard many people who did complain but they just seemed to want the earth. I found the staff extremely polite and attentive. Maybe because l was polite and civil to them

First week was amazing by poohbearferg

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Grand Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

We would not go on another cruise longer than 7 days again. We caught covid onboard on day 8 and were confined to our quarters until disembarking. Total waste of a lot of money. Others around us coughing up their lungs and obviously not reported as still roaming freely. Everyone should be tested regularly and large antibacterial pumps should be in every cabin.

Had a wonderful time in NZ by HelenSmith61

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Golden Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Princess cruises are our favourite cruise line, and this cruise was right up to their standards, despite being on the oldest ship in the fleet. Great service, entertainment, and onboard shopping. The meals were fantastic, and waitstaff exceptional. All in all , an a1 cruise.

Great ship, plenty of room by crashbang

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Always enjoy this, will booked again, 24hr cafe was great, used most mornings around 2am. Food selection was good so quite often had breakfast & lunch there instead of buffet or main dining rooms

sensational by damentia

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Ovation of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Had a great time on the ovation of the seas.The common areas could be a bit bigger for the number of people on the ship.The staff were always smiling and very friendly.The rooms were sensational.I still think the price of alcohol on any cruise not just Royal Caribbean is ridiculous though.

Ship: Radiance of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

I loved the small size of this ship. You never got lost and I found the fellow passengers very friendly. New Zealand is an amazing place to visit.
