Review summary

Hard to explain after quite a critical review but this is an honest and accurate report. Really enjoyed ourselves despite our complaints but for us we prefer Celebrity cruises

Embarkation

2 out of 5
We had a form to complete before embarkation , this was to do with entering Cuba , there was no assistance from Azamara staff and we were given conflicting information from different port staff. In the end it was just pot luck !

If you are looking for any sort of evening entertainment the Azamara Quest is NOT for you. Very disappointing

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff were excellent , they couldn't be faulted. A special thank you to Aru Silalong in the bar

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Very clean & well presented We liked the living room best We would prefer a theatre to the caberet lounge it didn't create a good atmosphere

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Couldn't fault the cleanliness or the comfort but it was a totally obstructed by the lifeboat we couldn't even sea any land. To be fair to Azamara they offered us an alternative but only 4 days before the end. Don't book this go for an inside cabin instead

Ports of call

This was our main gripe , once we had paid for the cruise in full Azamara cut this port out. We complained once on the cruise and received comments such as that the Brits were the only people complaining ! We were given various reasons and felt Azamara were not being honest with us. Apparently they often change itinery, if so my advice is complain before you leave the UK. We were not told we could cancel. Very poor customer service

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, CUBA

5 out of 5

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)
