What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

7 nights later, I can honestly say I would absolutely sail Symphony of the Seas again and again and again.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

I loved it so much you guys. Like that island is me in a nutshell.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

Alaska is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful cruise adventure

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

I absolutely loved it.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

If you've never stargazed from a helicopter pad in the middle of the night on the front of a ship, this is definitely something that you must find time to do.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises
The Watch-outs

They just came on and told us that we're not going to be able to go today because they think the weather and the wind and the seas are too much.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

So, they definitely did not clean my room.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

This is the smallest room. This is like this is like solitary confinement cell.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

We're supposed to be in Bimini, Bahamas today at Virgin Voyages private beach club and we literally were right here at the island.

🥉KnowledgeableGrateful Living Cruises

Our excursion experience with the Celebrity Edge was not fantastic. Their communication was terrible.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Grateful Living Cruises.

  1. Take photos and videos while ascending the Sky Explorer at Mystic Mountain, as the views are better than when descending.

  2. Don't forget to wear sunscreen even if it doesn't feel extremely hot.

  3. Arrive at the bingo show more than 30 minutes early to secure tickets and seats.

  4. If you want a mattress topper, you must reserve it when making your booking.

  5. If you don't drink alcohol, inform the staff so they can adjust your experience/orders.

  6. If using an Uber to the port, tell the driver to take the bridge instead of the tunnel to avoid construction/traffic.

  7. Stick to your assigned boarding time slot; arriving too early can lead to chaotic lines and confusion.

  8. Check deck maps to see what is directly above your cabin (e.g., the galley/food hall) to avoid noise.
