Emerald Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

We chose this yacht because of its looks and port destinations. We love Greece so a trip to the islands was very appealling. We loved our Oceanview cabin, loads of storage with a decent size bathroom. We enjoyed being on deck 3 near the bar and restaurant. No noise from above (Observation lounge). We took advantage of all the included tours and paid for the Santorini tour. All were well ...

We just wrapped up our inaugural cruise with Emerald aboard AZZURRA, but let me tell you, it was far from smooth sailing. The good points like comfortable bed were overshadowed by the disappointments, leaving us with a clear message: we will NEVER cruise with Emerald again. Let's dive into the grievances that ruined our experience: - Prepare for a delightful whiff of sewage, as our room ...

This cruise took us to several bucket list locations and everything was great. Smooth, quick embarkation, a comfortable and spacious room, and friendly attentive staff all made this an amazing trip. The excursions were well organized and went smoothly- the buses were comfortable and air conditioned. The guides were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Even when our Jerusalem tour ran late ...

A companion and myself were on a 21 day cruise . What a disappointment!!! The food was average ( nothing great ) but the brochure made it sound like the food would be of Michelin restaurant quality. Day after day the same thing was served with small differences. For the cost of this cruise the food should have been of a much higher quality The shower drains seem to be too small for the ...

This was our 9th cruise. Most of the others were with Silversea. We chose the Azzurra because it only holds 100 passengers. We wanted to try something smaller than Silversea ships. Boy, what an experience! There were only 53 passengers and 76 crew. As you can imagine, the service was really great. The crew member wanted to provide great service wherever we were. This was our best cruise ...

What drew us to the Azzurra initially was its looks of course, then after researching further the small amount of other passengers made it feel exclusive. Well, it did not disappoint. It's a stunning ship with the interior matching the exterior We chose a balcony stateroom and glad we did as we did get to see the smaller cabins with no balconies. More space in ours of course. The room was ...

We chose Azzurra as it is a small new ship, with 100 passengers. The ship was stunning, with plenty of space so it never felt crowded. Our balcony suite was lovely, with plenty of storage, good design and very comfortable. The staff onboard were absolutely fantastic - always with a big smile and happy to help with everything. We loved the choice of food and wine - many reflecting the local ...

We chose this as because of COVID we hadn’t cruised for a while and we’re looking for something a little bit different. We loved it from the minute we got onto the ship. Can’t fault a thing. The staff are absolutely brilliant, so helpful and friendly. Everyone we came across was happy and smiling. The food was delicious and well cooked, plenty to choose from. The wine with meals was of a ...

We really wanted to visit Croatia and we thought the Emerald Azzurra would be the perfect way to do it! Imagine starting in Dubrovnik after an included city tour, then greeted personally by all the head crew members including the Captain! Throw in a ice cold towel, some prosecco and the amazing service started right away! This mega yacht with only max 100 passengers was just amazing. We were ...

We are a married couple in our 60's who chose this cruise after having enjoyed an experience a couple years ago on the Paul Gauguin, a small cruise ship in Tahiti. That ship accommodated 300 people and we really loved the smaller passenger load, more personal service and the ability to go from island to island rather than being on a cruise that wastes days at sea. We had always wanted to do a ...
