Nice ship and beautiful places to visit. Horrible company watch out for hidden fees and being over charged at the end of the cruise.

Review summary

After getting home and reviewing my credit card statement. The amount on my final bill did not match and they added over $800 in extra charges. I called customer service and they told me to send and email. I did and only received a response that they received it. I have still not seen any movement this. Think twice before going on this cruise line.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Nice and quick. Unlike other cruises we’ve been on we were not greeted with a drink.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The did have good food. However, the buffet do not stay open like other cruises.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Casino and some pools. You can purchase a yacht club and go into their private sections.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
No comedy, the main theater was not interesting at all. The shows we went to they were lip singing and the dance routines were not in sink at all and looked somewhat confused.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
I only met one guy on the ship who seemed like he didn’t like it there. The rest of the cruise staff seem cheerful and happy.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
New ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
The room we were supposed to have was changed to 14157. It was the smallest bathroom I’ve ever been in. You actually had to sit almost sideways on the toilet and you could wash your hand while on the toilet. The shower was tiny.

Ship tip

Keep track of your onboard account.

Their private island. Nice and clean.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Love the Bahamas always a great place with lots of history. No excursions interested us.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
This is also a beautiful place to visit. No excursions interested us. We just enjoyed walking around. We did see them filming Fantasy Island.

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

1 out of 5
We did not get off the ship as it would cost you $40 a couple for a ride to the city. Two of the couples that went with us went and said it was horrible with nothing to see.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
We walked our bags off at around 7:30 am. You have to be out of your room by 8:00am.

So you can put cash on your card? I rather do that then use my credit card.

Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

That's why I never use credit cards on cruise ships to a issue like this, better always preferred cash and going to Customer Service or a Machine to transfer my cash to my cruise card... Yeah I saw that bathroom in msc seashore is small unless you book a big spacious room

Another less than stellar review from a World Travel Holdings company. Always wonder if the overcharges come from World Travel or the line.

Thanks for the review. Were the additional charges the daily gratuities? Drinks that cost extra? Is it just the hold placed on the card to cover all charges and will be released in a few days?
