30 Oct 2026
Not a great start when we learned that two stops had been cancelled due to net entanglement caused damage which left us in antigua for three days. Then on the last day when we should have docked at 0730. We docked at 1430 due to weather.
The entertainment was poor and consisted of the same bands daily and the majority of stage shows either singers or musicians.
On offer was chairobics, ballroom dancing, painting classes and three daily quizzes. Option to play quoits, croquet ping png or paddle board. A nightly movie was that available on the films available in the rooms and they were all fairly dated. It was phenomenally boring.
The focus is on the over 70s and nothing for everyone else. Im 57 and my husband is 64 but there was little for us to do.
There were dress up nights. Which weren't for us but I think people who went enjoyed the opportunity to glam up.
The food was pretty good so no complaints there.
The beds and pillows were amazing.
Excursions as with all cruise companies were overpriced and were available locally at a cheaper rate.
On the occasion I used customer services they were unhelpful and I was supported by a member of restaurant staff.
Restaurant staff were not terribly attentive as seen on other cruise companies.
Cunard lives on its rep of being luxurious - it wasn't.
Despite the issues that occurred on our trip there was no recompense.
I would absolutely not travel with cunard again.

Located in Angra do Heroísmo, Forte de São Sebastião was constructed as a demonstration of new coastal defence ideas in 1580 at the suggestion of architect Tomaz Benedito de Pesaro. The first major maritime fortification built in the city, it actually crosses fire with Fortress of São João Baptista, providing effective defence of Porto das Pipas (Pipas Port) – a vital seaport and anchorage for transit ships heading from destinations like India and Brazil to the Kingdom of Portugal.
Cathedral of Angra do Heroísmo
An impressive 16th century cathedral in Angra do Heroísmo, the Cathedral of Angra do Heroísmo is the largest religious institution in the archipelago and a stand-out landmark in the city today. Boasting a simple Portuguese Chã design with twin bell towers, parts of the cathedral were reconstructed following the 1980 earthquake. Interestingly, due to a lack of space when construction began, the church is orientated northwards, and not eastwards as was the tradition for medieval religious buildings.
Praia da Riviera
