Review summary

We've been on many cruises with other cruise lines. The Onward gave us such great service, food, entertainment, and comfort. With almost everything we wanted included ( wine, beer, some drinks, and sodas ) we definitely got our moneys worth without being "nickel and dimed" all the time. We will plan another Azamara cruise soon

Ship Quality

Easy to locate dining and showroom. Our stateroom was centrally located by an elevator and stairs so going anywhere on the ship was easy and close. The Onward was a pleasure to spend 11 days on.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Perfect size for us. Fresh and clean, very comfortable. Perfect location on the ship. Deck 6 provided us with easy access to everything on the ship. Our room stewart was excellent and very attentive.

Ship tip

They would have to experience small luxury cruising compared to the mega size ships. We will never go back to dealing with crowds and long lines again.

Palma De Mallorca, Balearic Islands

5 out of 5
Wasnt sure what we expecting, but we were blown away with the island. We will go back again.

Barcelona, Spain

3 out of 5
Barcelona was crowded and way to big for us. Took the on and off buses and enjoyed the ride. It was the only port that showed an indifference to tourists, not tourist friendly.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We spent 3 days in Barcelona so we disembarked on our own. So easy and convenient to ground transportation.
