Review summary

Great cruise....if the damn Hurricane wasn't coming I think it would of been more calming. The Captain and crew where amazing. They were always posting news about the hurricane and staying one step ahead of it. Not going to St.Kitts was a little disappointing but the captain knows what's best for his passengers and crew. Kudos to all of them... One thing I did not like was smoking in the casino. The smoke is unbearable, and we like to play poker and slots and went only once because it was so smokey. Was on 4th floor and it was reaping up to the 5th floor. The ship is non smoking so just make it all non smoking? You would be helping the environment and 2nd hand smoke.

Awesome !!!! Everything was great. One instance I ordered steak med and received one bloody...(yuk). Our server immediately took care of the problem. Our anniversary was Sept 6th and on Sept 5th they brought us a dessert with written message saying "Happy Anniversary".... Very thoughtfully on their part.Buffets were awesome. I liked the hand washing stations...Good Idea!! We didn't try specialty restaurants....definitely next time !!!

Went snorkeling to see tugboat sunken in the water. Was very nice. I'm not a big fan of water and one of the men didn't leave my side.. was very nice, good pics, and they gave us cold watermelon and drinks on our way back

Oranjestad, Aruba

4 out of 5
Second time in Aruba. Love it. We went on a excursion that took you around the island to sight see , take pics, shop, and eat.... Went to Ruth Chris to celebrate our 42nd Anniversary. Should of stayed on ship and saved the 200.00 bill!!!

Basseterre, St. Kitts Did not visit port

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very easy...especially if you pay the $ to get a Porter to carry your luggage ,go through customs, and hail a taxi. If you don't the line is huge. Need more people to work in customs. Not many open. I think there was 3.

Where did you get on the ship? Puerto Rico? I thought it was not operational yet?

When was your Cruise and where were you leaving from? I am on the October 14th Adventurer of the Seas from PR. I haven't heard anything yet. Driving me crazy.

Welcomehome97 so sorry to hear that. I hope you can reschedule soon. It really stinks!!!

I understand as a non-smoker. BUT smokers do need areas, and the Casino happens to be one smoking area on most ships.Glad you had a good cruise outside of the Casino (cough, cough) smoke.

welcomehome97, which cruise line and when were you set to sail, if you don't mind me asking. We are supposed to go on RCL Nov 18th out of San Juan. RCL is only updating through the beginning of Oct. Not sure if they will redirect us or cancel.

I am a non smoker and think that smokers get a poor deal, if you go to the smoking area you will find these are the most sociable group and talk to each other we go on Royal Caribbean ships all the time
