Creator's Key Takeaways

I was invited out on this trip. However, they are not paying me for my review and I was able to give you just my honest feedback about this ship.

I would say the ship is for anybody that wants a classic cruise experience. Good food, entertainment, smaller size ship, very solid, original type cruise experience.

I don't highly recommend Grandeur of the Seas for families with small children.

I honestly didn't know what to think when I came on board how much wear and tear I was going to see, how much love she did or didn't get... But they did a really good job on the ship's refurbishment.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Bring a swimsuit to enjoy the pool and hammocks at ports.
✓Consider booking an excursion in Bise, as the port itself is small and not worth a full day.
✓If sensitive to ship movement, consider a larger ship for more stability.
✓Leave the shower curtain open for a more comfortable experience in the small bathroom.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Ship movement due to smaller size — Consider a larger ship for more stability if sensitive to motion sickness.
Limited activities for small children — Not recommended for families with small children; consider ships with more kid-friendly amenities.
