Enchantment of the Seas

February 2024 - 7 Night Western Caribbean (Tampa Roundtrip) Cruise on Enchantment of the Seas

Carnival Sunshine

November 2023 - 6 Night Bahamas (Charleston Roundtrip) Cruise on Carnival Sunshine

Fun Cruise

Overall our Thanksgiving cruise was wonderful. We ranged from 9-79 and all of us had a great time. The kids were occupied and had so much fun. The adults could relax and enjoyed their time as well. Sailing out of Charleston was easy and quick. Small older ship but was very clean and had plenty to do.

Norwegian Prima

April 2023 - 7 Night Bermuda (New York Roundtrip) Cruise on Norwegian Prima

Fantastic Bermuda Cruise

Sailing out of New York is so special🇺🇸. My husband and I sailed with our son and family. We had a wonderful time. The food and service were fantastic! The ship is beautiful and I thought was easy to navigate. Bermuda was beautiful. We went to the caves, tobacco bay and horseshoe bay. We used the free ferry from NCL and the public bus. We enjoyed all of it.

Carnival Legend

MSC Meraviglia

November 2021 - 8 Night Eastern Caribbean (Miami Roundtrip) Cruise on MSC Meraviglia

Wonderful cruise with family

I’ve cruised before but first time with MSC. I loved the ship and service. The ports we visited were great (Bonaire, Curaçao and Ocean Cay). I was aggravated with customer service prior to boarding because I would get different answers depending on who I spoke with but if covid wasn’t in the picture I wouldn’t have had any questions. I would definitely recommend this ship!

beautiful ship but staff -not very knowledgeable

very nice ship but staff starting with check in were not very knowledgeable At check in staff did not have proper training on new computer software.  Restaurant staff were very unorganized with a 45 minute wait each night. Once seated service was very slow but food was delicious.  Buffet staff were right on target, food was great, always a clean table to be found. Entertainment was great. Our room was fine and room steward was fantastic. Ports were incredible.

Cruise tips

Bimini, Bahamas

Absolutely beautiful. We rented a golf cart (from Renee and Sluggo) and drove to Radio Beach and then to the resort beach. Both beautiful

Nassau, Bahamas

We went to Margaritaville and had so much fun. Easy walk from the pier

Carnival Sunshine

Carnival Sunshine

Sunshine is a smaller older ship but was sparkling clean and had a lot of activities. To get to my time dining is a bit of a maze

Norwegian Prima

Norwegian Prima

Look at pictures and layout of the ship before you go. Book what you can prior to boarding (which is what I always do anyway). Try all of the dining that comes with your cruise. Relax and enjoy.

Willemstad, Curacao

We did the country drive excursion through MSC because we had unvaccinated young children. Tour was good. Wonderful and friendly island. Those that were vaccinated went to Mambo beach after tour. Beautiful water and great snorkeling

Port Canaveral, Florida

Very organized off the ship and out of the port within 15 min. And we didn’t carry our luggage off

Kralendijk, Bonaire

We went to Sorobon Beach and rented chairs at Sebastians. Some windsurfed, we swam and had a great day. Again people were very friendly.

Miami, Florida

We flew into Miami and used shuttle service to port. (Shuttle2go).

MSC Meraviglia

MSC Meraviglia

If everyone is vaccinated there should be no problems at all. If you have any unvaccinated children with you there will be very limited excursions and some onboard activities.

my time dining-make a reservation time before you board or you will be waiting a long time
