Customer reviews
Mia Nguyen was incredibly helpful, changing the date of our booking when I made a mistake, organising transport to and from our cruise, and checking in throughout to ensure we were satisfied and enjoying our stay. Thank you, Mia!
The cruise was great. However, we also had a massage today, and honestly, it was one of the worst massages I’ve ever had. At this level and price point, that’s just not acceptable.
So yes, please feel free to pass this feedback on. I truly don’t mind. At this point, I just feel this is very, very, very far from a VIP experience.
We really enjoyed the cruise. The scenery was breathtaking, and everyone on the boat was very friendly.
We really enjoyed it!
The room was amazing, great space, clean.
The food was also good!
If we knew that level before, we should take one more day.
Perhaps a dancing party could be added at night.
Janet has been so helpful in helping me choose the best trip for me and make my experience great from the helicopter to the pick up, everything is just amazing. Recommended!
