Barbados Cruise Reviews

We’ve spent the last year “comparing” luxury cruise lines, sailing in the Retreat on Celebrity several times (including the maiden voyage of the new Ascent) and testing out Regent’s brand new Seven Seas Grandeur . . . While we enjoyed them all, we believe our 2 voyages on Seabourn Ovation to be significantly better in almost every respect. The Ovation, launched in 2018, was the “oldest ship” we’ve ...

Our first cruise , amazing experience , excellent service , very clean and all staff couldn’t help enough. Fly cruise to the Caribbean. Prepaid excursions were well worth the money with excellent guides on the day. Unfortunately due to weather , one port stop had to be cancelled and P and O refunded the cost straight away . We upgraded to an outside cabin with balcony which was a blessing as the ...

We are nearing the end of an outstanding 25 night voyage from Barbados to Los Angeles via Panama. The ship design, the well trained and positive crew delivering exemplary service, the mix of interesting ports, the brilliant cuisine and the engaging entertainment and activities have all blended to make a highly recommended Cruise experience. The unrestricted, fast broadband wifi enables full ...

Top class in almost every respect. Our second Seabourn cruise and this one for 14 days. Public spaces still look classy ( perhaps not the Club which is dark) but our 5th deck cabin's carpet is looking past its best. It was kept immaculately. We could not fault food or service standards. Breakfast is a repeat affair but there's plenty of choice. We really enjoyed Earth and Ocean for dinner. Solis ...

Just returned from a wonderful 2 week cruise to the Caribbean, enjoyed every minute. Any holiday is what you make it. Got to visit 9 different islands in 2 weeks. Food of a good standard, ate in Oriental restaurant, thanks to both Soni and Danni both lovely, Beach House, Epicurian and glass House. Thank you to Sanjay our steward who did and amazing job. Brittania is off for a refit soon can wait ...

We have been fortunate enough to have been on a range of holidays with various tour operators and different cruise lines. Our most recent being Cunard Line. A far cry from Marella, on pen and paper anyway. We wanted to try something new and after watching lots of reviews and videos online, we decided to give them a try and when a good deal popped up, we booked. We chose an itinerary that we ...

WOW! What a memorable experience we have had sailing aboard Explora I – literally the experience of a lifetime!! From the moment we set foot on Explora I, we watched the Crew work nonstop, going well above and way beyond to make sure that everyone’s experience is world class. Their eagerness to assist and their attention to detail – all the way from the Captain to the Room Steward – is ...

So, my wife and I started with our first booking on any cruise line in over five years with a spur-of-the-moment trip to the Caribbean. We literally booked the cruise from our home in the Dallas-Fort Worth area on 1/18/24 and landed in Barbados the following day (1/19/24), boarding Explora I that same afternoon. Let that sink in: After completing the booking mid-afternoon of 1/18/24, we ...

My wife loves to cruise -- me -- not so much. And as we live in Miami, the lure of the Caribbean is limited -- give me Key West, anytime. But just got back from the Explora, with dear friends, and it was truly amazing -- a floating Four Seasons is the best way to describe it. The restaurants were all terrific. The only so-so meal was my own fault. At Marble, the steakhouse, the server warned us ...

Regent really delivers luxury and at a high level. Naturally, there are occasional blips but this inevitable and does not take any from the overall experience. The service culture is evident. Management is visible and engaged in daily operations. I had not observed this on other cruise lines. The service staff is well trained, some are working on their english but all are clearly guest ...
