Review summary

We had the time of our lives. So much so we have already booked our next Silversea cruise. The COVID onboard our ship prohibited us from visiting several ports of call but did not dampen our spirits. We felt comfortable and confident because of the way Silverseas health and safety policies were implemented and enforced. All without feeling too intrusive. The Captain kept us informed with daily communications. Silverseas also compensated us with a FCC to make up for the ports we were unable to visit.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Smooth process. COVID testing took a little longer. But it was not cumbersome at all.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was delicious in every restaurant we went to. Although, we never got to the Grill or the Silver Note but will on our next voyage.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We particularly enjoyed the New Year's Eve party. Very well done. Also Midnight Mass live streamed from the Vatican was a moving experience.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We have eclectic tastes in music. So we enjoyed a wide range of entertainment from classical pianist, R&B to jazz. Loved them all.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Most outstanding staff we've ever experienced on any ship. They are so eager to please at every encounter. Warm, friendly and the epitome of professionalism. There aren't enough accolades to do them justice.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Outstanding on every count.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was spacious and very well appointed. Huge marble bathroom with a big tub and separate shower. The storage capacity is incredible with large walk in closet and ample drawers. The decor is beautiful. Bed was a bit too firm for my taste but a cushy mattress pad (thank you, Zavior!) made such a difference.

Ship tip

Experience everything offered. Be prepared for extraordinary pampering. Savor every minute of your dream cruise.

Ports of call

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
We took a tour of old and new San Juan. Visited an historic fort. Tour was interesting if you've never been to San Juan. Guide was informative.

Bequia, Grenadines

5 out of 5
We went on a beach excursion. The ride to get there was nerve wracking. The road was steep hills, lots of blind curves and seemingly wide enough for one vehicle but used for two way traffic. But, once we got to the beach we were rewarded with the most spectacular scene you could ask for in a Caribbean Island. The water was a gorgeous color blue and dotted with beautiful sail boats and yachts. And, a great view of the Silver Spirit from the beach.

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
This was our port of embarkation. We live in Florida and have been to Fort Lauderdale many times. Beautiful beaches and lots of great restaurants bars.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Smooth. Sad to leave, but we are taking lifetime memories with us.
