Anyone cruised on the Fantasy

[odysseyw5]

Just looking to get anyone's impression of the Fantasy. It will be the first time our children will be on a cruise and we are all excited. So, how was your experience?

We were on Fantasy a few years back and had a fun time. It is an old ship but the layout is easy to remember as you go from one part of the ship to another.

 

Have a fun time.

It's a great ship to get you hooked on cruising. It's got all the WOW factor you need in a 3/4 day cruise. Food is above average, entertainment is typical of any cruise and it's really a pretty ship overall. Doing the Fantasy first can only mean it will get better and you may find that hard to believe.

The problem with 3/4 day cruises is you will have many first time cruisers with you vs. experieced long time cruisers. These tend to be more negative and generally a little more roudy than those on a 7 day or longer. The are on it for the party fun factor vs. the art of cruising, still it's a great ship to get your feet wet on. There are two types of people in the world: cruisers and non-cruisers. After a Fantasy cruise you will know which one you fit into.

I have been on this ship four times and she is one of my favorites. She was totally refurbished less than two years ago and is pratically a new ship. I have photos of the ship in my first link.

The Fantasy was our first cruise in 1999, and we are now going on our 6th cruise, the Glory in 8 days. I guess that says it all about the Fantasy..............We loved it so much we haven't been able to stop. I've been on her twice and my kids have been three times.

 

I will admit I liked her decor better before being redone, Just my tastes I guess..........Trisha
