Not Worth the Price

Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on Sun Princess

This was our 14th cruise crossing mulitple cruise lines (Viking, Royal, Azamara, HAL) and now Princess for the first time. Our trip was going to be the 4th cruise of the Sun Princess, but it turned out to be the second I believe. I still have high expectations for Princess as they didnt communicate any issues with the boat prior to departure. We did upgrade to a balcony room. We had another room ...

We took this cruise to see Portugal again and get to Uk. We chose an inside cabin to save some money . I booked thru princess because it was our first time on them and I wanted a good cabin. I said I wanted stateroom ubove and below. Our room was over the piazza. We had music blasting in our room until 12:15 am. We called nightly and no one did a thing. We were told there were no rooms to move ...

A nightmare, but not a cruise

Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Costa Smeralda

A complete mess. The food is tasteless, old, yesterday and cold. Breakfast includes yesterday's cold baked potatoes straight from the fridge. Omelet and scrambled eggs are cold and yesterday. Your kitchen food, tragedy and nightmare. There were not even fresh vegetables like fresh cucumbers or fresh tomatoes. There is no buffet. Food is rationed, the chefs do not understand what the customer ...

MSC was not for us (but it could be for you)

Disclaimers: First, I believe there is a cruise line for everyone. Second, I have cruised the Mediterranean before (June 2023). Third, I typically sail on Holland America. I simply did not enjoy this cruise experience. There were multiple things I did not like but understand they may just be annoyances to me. There were a few standouts of things that were really good. The Good: 1. The ...

Inaugural cruise on New Sun Princess

I was advised that being on the inaugural cruise is like being the guinea pig. Therefore, I purposely chose the third sailing of the new Sun Princess cruise. However, due to the cancellation of the first two sailings, we ended up on the inaugural cruise. I was excited, thinking that everything on the cruise would be brand new, and I hoped the advice I got wasn't true. As it turns out, my friend ...

We picked this cruise originally as it was to be the 3rd cruise on Sun Princess as it turned out it was the inaugural cruise which was more expensive at the time of booking but we felt by the 3rd cruise all would be working what a mistake!!! Princess should have let us know before we travelled that the theatre and park 19 would be unavailable to us instead just giving 60$ each when we on board ...

Princess Should have simply communicated

Imagine this scenario: Princess Cruiseline sends out an email to booked passengers for the 2/28 Inaugural (by default after 2/8 and 2/18 were canceled) cruise. The email discloses that, despite their best efforts, the ship just isn't quite ready yet. Never the less, they have decided to sail as planned vs canceling outright. This fantasy email gave passengers the option of rescheduling to a ...

Totally disappointed

Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Epic

I wish I would’ve googled this ship before we booked, but I guess I gotta learn somehow. This was our first cruise with Norwegian and everyone was ranting and raving about how great everything is. The only thing they had going for them was embarkment and disembarking, that was super easy as long as you know what you are doing. Our room had a hull balcony, which is fine because I knew what those ...

Iona fails to sparkle or delight

Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Iona

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Having cruised with P&O several times, and on Iona before, we were happy to book a 14 night trip to the Canaries. However, our experience during the cruise will lead us to explore other cruise lines in future. We recognise that P&O Cruises offer a value proposition - and in many ways it delivers the basics well. But even a value proposition can delight customers through actions which are not ...

Not up to P & O old standards

Food was OK unless you paid extra when it was great. entertainment was poor compared to pre pandemic times. Far to much emphasis on tech not on quality. In old day you got a new show every night. No longer it's every other night. on line booking system is poor and older people found it difficult to use. rooms were narrow but the conservatory was great Internet package worked well but ...
