10 Nights Mediterranean from Lisbon Cruise

Loved the cruise, will cruise again on MSC

cruised on Princess 3 months ago and cruised MSC now. What a difference, MSC was really a great experience for me and kids. There is a waterpark inside the ship as well. The food is much improved and great variety every day at the buffet The white party was icing on the cake and we just loved the "different kind " of party at the MSC. The DJ was awesome. We also attended a few shows at the theater and you have to make reservations ahead of time. The live music was outstanding. The Rooms are of decent size and we had a sofa bed instead of a pull down. The Airconditioner inside the room was outstanding, really kept it chilled cold. The only downside i saw was that they dont allow a bottle of wine per person and you cant get soda. The internet package - once you register a device you cannot switch it.

Another great Celebrity cruise

This was our second time on Celebrity and it definitely won't be our last. Our first sailing was Silhouette, so this ship is very similar, and, in fact, we booked basically the same room, Sunset Concierge. While a bit of a walk to the elevator, the view is worth it to us! We didn't eat in the MDR, as we were a bit tired after being off the ship at port days, but we enjoyed both the buffet and the Mast Grill. We spent a good bit of time at the Sunset bar, it was so relaxing. We did some trivia and saw the comedian, who was pretty funny and worth seeing. We did our own thing in Key West and enjoyed a little bar hopping and lunch at Sloppy Joe's. Being a holiday weekend, it was pretty busy, but had a great time. We did a private tour in Bimini, which was nice, as it was our first time, but if we ever go back, we would just do a beach day at Radio Beach (Resort World seems overpriced) or stay on ship. There were more teenagers on this cruise, which ended up not being a big deal, but one reason we like Celebrity is to not see so many kids and teens. But, it was all fine. Overall, we had a nice, relaxing cruise. This ship doesn't have tons of entertainment as some larger ships we've sailed like Utopia or Allure on RCL, but the trade off is worth it to have a more laid back atmosphere and less children. We are already looking at options to book again. My only complaint was that 3 days wasn't long enough! :)

Virgin is the WAY to GO!

We had an amazing time and met the most amazing people we can now call friends. Atlantis never disappoints! Excellent entertainment lineup (one of our faves was the Latin Sunset trio!) The food at Virgin is like no other, and compared to Royal and Celebrity, it exceeded my expectations with the food variety and options. The room was spacious and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My only suggestion would be to offer bottled water at the shop. I was told Virgin is plastic free, which I love, but the cruise water always makes me sick from the added chemicals. It is not the healthiest to consume, so having an option to have clean filtered purified water would give me experience 10/10. Overall, I will rate this trip a 8/10, as the pools were also very small compared to other ships, making the space more limited and cramped while trying to enjoy the sun in the pool.
