I have been on 14 cruises (4 Disney, 4 NCL, 3 Carnival, 2 Tradewinds catamarans, and 1 Costa). I am most disappointed with NCL. The service has gotten worse. I do like the NCL’s ports I’ve sailed (Bermuda, Mexican Pacific, Western Caribbean and Hawaii) but I would have had a better experience visiting those ports with another cruise line, or even sticking to resorts and getting a rental car.

Where to begin. Cold and mediocre food on the buffet. Only about TWO total entertainment activities worth your time.
Because of weather, 2 out of our 3 excursions were canceled and couldn't be rescheduled because they had no back up plan. Most of the staff was rude and treated us like an after thought and not like a guest at all. Guest services argued with us that we hadn't paid for a drink ...
We were looking forward to seeing the Hawaii islands and thought a cruise would be a good way to do this; however, we were quite disappointed in the cruise for many reasons. Having been on NCL for previous cruises, we were looking forward to a great experience; unfortunately this cruise was well below the standards we had seen on previous cruises. The ship is 19 years old, so the pool area is ...
The nice thing about Pride is you see three islands - it is a floating hotel.
The bad news is the food was terrible, the staff mediocre. We had some specialty dining in Cagneys and Moderno. Those were both good, but the food on the buffet was terrible. The night they had prime three of four in our party ordered it and not one person could eat it. I've had beef jerk more tender. ...
I have been cruising with Carnival for the last 15 years and had good experiences with them up until 2024. We did the 15 day Hawaii cruise and were highly disappointed.
Food and Service on the Carnival Miracle was subpar at best and the ship had many things out of service like ice makers throughout the ships drink stations. We noticed that there was far less crew in the MDR and at the bars. ...
Do not i repeat, do not book an norwegian/oceana cruise. You have been warned we are on the around the world cruise currently. the cruise is 196 days from miami florida to new york. It is utterly a complete disappoint. If i was to write every disappointment, we have experienced up to now it would be 10 pages. We are going to try to condense it. First, they advertises the best cuisine at sea. That ...
We thought this would be a wonderful, relaxing cruise. Embarcation took hours, even with a designated time to arrive. I had expected that it might be a little cold or rough going out of the Golden Gate, which it was, but it only got worse. I had tried to find out what a Pacific crossing would be like, but I couldn't find any information. It was cold and very rough, day after day. The ship ...
16 day Hawaiian cruse. We have cruised with other cruise lines multiple times. Complete disappointment on almost every aspect.. food entertainment, staff, customer service, and the boat itself. Our first time with princess, but others in our group has sailed with Princess 8 times in past and they were also highly disappointed and stated it was completely different then years past. Something has ...
Upon entering the ship, staff was attentive & friendly. After we left Honolulu, it became clear we were a burden to waitstaff in ALL the bars. One evening in more formal dining, it took us 2 hours to get our food- 3 meals were served after they sat on the counter 15 minutes and the other 5 meals were brought out after the first 3 were served-Those 5 meals sat 15 more minutes before served 40 ...
We chose Viking based on cruise ratings and have sailed on over 30 ocean cruises. Our review benchmark used 2019 sailings on HAL and Regent. The Star passenger areas are in good shape for the ship's age. However the ship is small and suffers from excessive pitch and heave in the typical Pacific 6 to 9 foot swells as compared to larger ships such as the HAL Westerdam, which we took on a nearly ...
