We are first-time cruisers and we had an amazing time. The staff were above par, all of them! The shopping on the ship was excellent and hard to resist. My husband loved the casino! We loved the shows every night, something new. -  lorettasotile

Third time on the Ruby and it continues to have the best services and entertainment. Food was excellent. Had a great time! - RPolicastro

5 Stars does not make justice to the kind services, from the staff and servers in all the departments of the ship. Everyone was so respectful, caring and friendly it was unbelievable. The views, excursions, and ports were all nice. It was a perfect vacation to disconnect and really enjoy. - alexcybul

This cruise was excellent. My oldest daughter is vegan and although the ship didn't offer vegan options, the chef was very accommodating. The chef made her special dinners and special desserts. - otwellvaca2018
