Cruise Line: Fred. Olsen Cruises Times cruised before: 0
Cruise Ship: Braemar Sailed: January, 2012
Destination: Caribbean Age: 56-65
Cabin: Inside
First time cruising and it will not be the last. The food was wonderful the staff excellent especially our waiter Victor in the Grampian restaurant. The ship may be a little tired in places but the high standard of cleanliness made up for that. Staff in the bars a little off hand and the shop was useless as were the girls running that. Didn't bother with the entertainment as it wasn't our scene but after visiting 10 Caribbean Islands in 15 days who needs onboard entertainment. Wish they were doing this cruise next year I would have booked again. Had a inside cabin but didn't mind as we only used it to sleep and dress. Think of the room like a biggish caravan and you will be fine. 5 stars for Fred Olsen

And we were on the same one as well - and enjoyed every single second of it too! Nothing was too much trouble for the staff; the food was of an excellent standard; there were plenty of sunbeds for everyone; entertainment was there if you wanted it and our inside cabin was compact and bijou! Ports of call were all excellent too. I just hope that Fred returns to the Caribbean!

We were probably on the same cruise but we did the Flagship Golf as well.Every was perfect and we also are sorry the Braemar pulling out of Caribbean.We are real Fred Olsen fans and have two more cruises booked the Black Sea and Indian Ocean
