“Review of Thomson Cruises, Thomson Destiny”

Written on: 06/08/2011 by Bexley5 (4 reviews written)

This was our first cruise, and overall the holiday was excellent we all had a fanastic time, after hearing reviews of cruising we went with an open mind and found the destiny to be an overall sucess, the entertainment, the service, food and staff were all very brilliant and made the holiday even better. The inside cabin was very tiny and not a lot of space, in future references from my expereince i will upgrade next time but to their advantage they were always very clean and the house...

We didn't like the Destiny at all! We had a cruise last year on the Thomson Spirit which we really enjoyed. The dining areas were lovely, the food was excellent and the entertainment was first class. That is why we decided to do another Thomson cruise but it will be the last one we take. The enterainment was not good at all - we've had better at Pontins at much cheaper price! The self service 'restuarant' was cold and not very welcoming. The drinks were ridiculously priced, £7 for a... (read more)

We were first time cruisers and we had a fantastic holiday. We went on holiday on the Destiny with an open mind (after reading some of the reviews). Yes the Destiny is an old ship, but is kept immaculately clean. Staff, food, entertainment, all excellent. We found the passengers on board very friendly and all up for a good time. The destinations were all excellent, we took some trips which were very well organised, and we felt were worth the money. We really enjoyed Captains night, most... (read more)

The Thomson destiny disaster cruise. We decided to book one of the deluxe balcony suites, on the island escape after booking 10 months in advance we were looking very much forward to the cruise for 8 and a half months. 1st thing that went wrong was a thomson agent phoned saying our ship had been recalled for refubishment and we had the choice to change to the destiny (sailing the same time we had booked off work) or our money back, hobsons choice really.

We also will be avoiding Thomson like the plague!!! First cruise (Caribbean 26 Dec - 9 Jan 11). Never again, the Destiny needs to be scrapped! I have written reviews on other sites - I hope they help other people make the right decision to stay well away from Thomsons. We, along with several other people we met onboard, were sold our 2 week cruise as being Child Free - it wasn't!!! It was child free for week 1 but not week 2. I booked directly with Thomson Rep on the phone and she kept saying how lovely it would be as there would be no kids. Not once did she say this would only be for the FIRST WEEK!!!! We had a great holiday due to the destinations and the people we me on board. Our cabin stewards Katya & Freddy were fantastic, and often made us laugh with their little jokes they played on us.

We had a great holiday aboard the Destiny cruise ship. This is our third cruise and cannot fault Thomson ships at all. Every member of staff were very friendly and helpful. The entertainment was fabulous and special thanks for a great time to Paul and Dave who entertained us every day. Food was great. Only fault was cabins a bit small but adequate as only sleeping in them. Would recommend this ship for a couples holiday as well as families. Noticed that kids were all so well looked... (read more)

As a first time cruiser with my family, as i was a little apprehensive about taking 3 children (7,4 & 1) on board a ship, where their entertainment would be limited.
Though having just returned from sailing aboard the thompson destiny, my apprehension was unfounded. The cabin was extremely comfortable, and cleaned twice daily. The food was excellent and plenty of variety for fussy children, in all restaurants.

Written on: 03/08/2010

I found this review not helpful because on these old fantastic ships you learn with age and paying more is the best.
<br/>I have been on six ships owned by Thompsons over the years and our family of 4 did sleep low down on deck 3 but we didn't complain it was fun and it's what you make it.
<br/>You don't sleep below deck 3 unless you have paid a cheaper price or young and not bothered.
<br/>These ships are old and you should have asked about noise when booking and if you only pay low cost thats what you get and you shouldn't complain. Looking forward to another cruise in August on The Destiny with good food and great company and dancing and not sat in our room complainig.M

Thomson Destiny May 2010 - Jewels of the Med
This was our first cruise and won't be our last! We are a family of 4 with 2 children aged 6 and 7 years. We have thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The ship was extremely well kept and clean plus a crew of helpful, friendly people. We had an inside cabin but managed fine with the space and layout, shower time was the most hectic but this only lasted an hour each evening.

I have been reading some of the reviews from people who must have been on the same cruise as my husband and I and I am mistified to know where all their complaints came from, my conclusion is that some folk just love a good moan, I say to them, get a life.

The DESTINY Is perfect in everything exept for one thing.
The dinning area at LIDO was abserlutly freezing (no covers on the front of the ship) Even the staff were complaining, I filled the survay in.
I complained at Thomsons at home.(they gave me a phone no to complain and what did the girl say "was it cold weather or you should have asked the crew to close the tarpaulin.

We were on the same cruise and we agree that the ship is past its sell by date but to say that the entertainment was poor is ridiculous. If the person that wrote the comments had been on any other cruises they would realise that Thomsons ships have the best entertainment. The entertainment staff on this cruise were the most talented that we have ever seen and they worked tirelessly to get invloved with the passengers, after the show the dancers and singers were in the Oklahoma Bar and the Clipper Bar talking and dancing with people up to 1.00am.

This was our first cruise, as others have mentioned the ship is a little dated, however we had a fantastic time. The staff are helpful and freindly, the food was excellent.
I am not a fan of shows but my wife went to see many of them and said they were very good, the entertainment on deck was good considering they have to appeal to a wide age range and there are enough places on the deck away from the entertainment if you wish.
Overall exelent holiday and would go again. (read more)

Do not buy one as it will still cost you a fortune with all the supplements, even tea, coffee, soft drinks as well as most alcoholic drinks. The... (read more)

The Thomson Destiny was our first cruise and to be honest, we expected more.
We spent two weeks travelling around the Caribbean which was amazing, and something we will never forget, however the ship was not amazing.
To start, the cabins were VERY VERY small, almost clostraphobic.
The entertainment was limited, and repeated.

Having read some of the reviews we can confirm most of the negative points are true. Heavy vibration over 11Knots which is quite often. Toilet did not always flush. The the amount of spirit in the cocktails is small.
They are very understaffed in the resturant. The food on some nights was awful the waiter saying what not to order.
Entertainment was very good but Can Can lounge is not big enough for the number of passengers as is the ship.
Caribbean however was great. (read more)

Took the Carribean Gems cruise from Dec08/Jan09. The ship came from England and the buffet menu seemed geared towards the English. The quality of the food on the buffet was poor. A lot of greasy/fatty meats and overly sweet deserts. We stuck to the fresh fruits and veggies whenever they were available.

Dec 2008: It was my first cruise and my experience was positive on the whole. Some hardy cruisers compared the experience with Butlins and I can see what they meant: always a tedious quiz threatened when there was a lull, and a general downmarket feel about the clientele. It's horses for courses.
The passengers were mainly quite elderly, evidenced by the number of walking sticks. As a consequence, the dinner conversation would veer from "I can't be doing with spicy food" to "What on earth... (read more)

Disappointed with ships tradition of dressing for dinner, some people not wearing correct clothing should not be allowed in dinning room. People wearing jeans and trainers allowed on formal night. This is not fair for the people who dress up and make the effort. If they don't want to make the effort why don't they book on the informal cruises.

Just returned from the Transatlantic + Caribbean Tour. I'm also converted to cruising for its convivial atmosphere. Ok, the cabins are small, but the ever-available food and drinks and quality entertainment outshine those available on land, in Antigua, for example.<br/>Others have recommended Royal Caribbean and P&O, but with the comment that you will pay for the difference!
