New in 2018, the awards also highlight the best cruise lines to visit each region.
Grand Cayman has just been recognized as one of the best cruise destinations in the Top-Rated Western Caribbean & Riviera Maya Cruise Destination Awards!
“The port was great and very pretty… The sea was stunning and seeing the Stingrays and feeding them was amazing.” – Cruise Critic Member EssG
Destinations awarded in this year’s awards received the highest ratings among cruisers who cruised to the destination in the past year and shared their experiences on Cruise Critic.
“Our data regularly shows that whether you’re a first-time cruiser or you’ve sailed dozens of times, destination is a top consideration when shopping for a cruise,” explains Colleen McDaniel, Senior Executive Editor of Cruise Critic. “While tropical destinations will always be popular among cruisers, what’s really exciting to see is the rise in esteem of destinations more known for their immersive and experiential offerings.”
“By awarding top destinations and now the best lines that visit them, we’re even better able to connect travelers with standout experiences available in the incredible places they’re looking to explore.”
