hulachrisinga01 Posted June 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2010 My mother and I are cruising on the Fascination in December. I have cruised on the Freedom and the Inspiration before and loved it. My question is, does the fascination live up? I had a friend of a friend tell me that she went on her first cruise on the Fascination and hated everything. She said the boat was rocky and the staff was rude. Is this true or just maybe a one time bad experience? Help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anjanu Posted June 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I've sailed on the Fascination 3 times and one was in December and haven't found anything bad yet. And of course the ship is going to rock. It's on water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first trip was March 2009 and loved it. Really like the smaller ships - lido deck lay out, overhangs outside lido buffet etc. And I don't know when your friend went, but it has been through Evolutions of Fun so it has the slides and serenity area. Rocky can be anywhere - just depends on the seas. Really looking forward to sailing her again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubreysmom Posted June 24, 2010 #11 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Our family went on the Fascination in March of 2009. We loved it. Even though the weather was not good - rainy and cold - we had a blast. It was one of our best cruises ever. The staff was wonderful!. I will be back on her in a few days and can't wait! Have a good time on your cruise.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodogkisses Posted June 24, 2010 #12 Share Posted June 24, 2010 We just cruised on the Fascination for the 3rd time last month and loved loved loved it. The ship and the crew are just great--and Trevor the CD, too. Have a great time. And Jaxport is so easy and quick to embark/debark, as it's the only ship in port.

new2boating Posted June 25, 2010 #13 Share Posted June 25, 2010 We went on the Fascination in May 2010. Like someone else said the ship is smaller and the rooms are smaller but we would jump on it again in a heartbeat. Here are the videos from our trip if you are interested: Good sailing.
