BEST NEW CRUISE SHIPS

BEST CRUISE FOOD
In 2022, we sailed on 9 of the world's newest mega ships. These included Royal Caribbean Wonder of the Seas, Holland America Line Rotterdam, Carnival Celebration, and Celebrity Beyond. Also, we sailed on Princess Cruises Discovery Princess, MSC Seascape, Norwegian Prima, Virgin Voyages Valiant Lady, and Disney Wish.

On every ship, we spent at least 6 nights onboard. Plus, we stayed in the line's standard balcony cabin. So, based on these cruises, we are back to rate how these ships compare on several important cruise categories.

For quick service, our pick of best cruise ship went to the diverse offerings on Carnival Celebration. Carnival Celebration also took the nod for best hamburger at sea with Guy's Burger Joint. Although, Discovery Princess and Valiant Lady to home the best pizza at sea. Valiant Lady also took our top prize for best main dining room. Although, Celebrity Beyond was a close second place.

BEST CRUISE SHIP ENTERTAINMENT , MUSIC, AND MORE

When it came to entertainment, no ship could beat Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas. The various entertainment venues and spectacular productions were certainly the best at sea.

Likewise, Wonder of the Seas shined with its wide selection of bars and lounges, most offering signature drink menus. Not to mention, the pool deck is an impressive outdoor space that has been enhanced when compared to its sister ships.

Although, when it came to the best music, Holland America Rotterdam's Music Walk was the clear winner. But, for those who like to stay up late, Valiant Lady and MSC Seascape offered the best nightlife with parties and clubs open until the wee hours of the morning.

For the sports deck, our pick for best cruise ship went to Norwegian Prima. With a great mix of complimentary and upcharge experiences. For those looking for more traditional, Carnival Celebrations sports deck is a great option.

When it came to the best cruise director, Lee Mason on Carnival Celebration and Duvual Gamble on Discovery Princess tied for top spot.

BEST CRUISE SHIP DESIGN

For us, you couldn't beat the staterooms and overall décor of Celebrity Beyond. The ship is certainly stunning, with upscale and sophisticated stylings.

Similarly, we are also fans of Norwegian Prima's chic and modern layout and furnishings. The ship's oversized balcony staterooms was also a nice departure from the line's typical accommodations.

For our first Disney Cruise Line sailing, we really loved the theming and décor of Disney Wish. The ship's Festival of Friends dining was some of the best quick service at sea. Not to mention the intricately themed public areas, such as the Bayou bar on deck 2.
