We had an aft on the Dawn and it was spectacular...... the wind has me very concerned but I've read it wasn't bad..... just not sure.... thank you!

We had an Aft balcony and it was quite nice. We never wanted front facing because we figured it'd be too noisy.

so, speaking of great experiences on the Gem...... I am on her in March 2018 and have an Aft Balcony (B1)...... I am debating about bidding for a forward facing suite (SE) and wondering if the wind is an issue up front. TIA

Have been on 9 cruises and the gem is my favorite. From the captain on down the staff is amazing. Some people will never be happy with anything they are just always miserable.

we had a great time on the gem in 2015. left from NYC up the Canadian coast. The entire cruise was great. Was there no other cabin to move you to? we found them very accommodating.

I'm sorry but my husband and I went on the Gem a year ago and it was awesome! The food, the staff, our room, our butler, our Steward, the entertainment. It was ALL great! Could you please be more specific in your complaints?
