Review summary

Traveled with friends, we enjoyed the cruise however we all agreed that we have had better dinners on RCL, food quality was just so so. Onboard activities seem to be geared to younger sports minded crowd.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Did the pre boarding on RCL app, was able to walk right on, room keys waiting at room.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
If you like broccoli this would be the trip for you, every night was broccoli night, steamed, grilled and raw, Food was average, however prime rib was excellent. The windjammer buffet was always a challenge to find a table and the are squeezecd tightly together.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Weather was too cool to use pools, was cool and. Windy to walk or sit on deck.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows were standard RCL show for mid to smaller ship, had two really good guest proformers

No children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Waiters and room Stewart were great, could not have asked for better service.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship was clean but is starting to show its age. Some glass panels are discolored, rust is noticable in areas, carpet needs good cleaning and the casino recks of cigarette smoke and it is over whelming for a non smoker

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Average size balcony room, was clean and served it's purpose for two people, would be cramped for three or more

Ship tip

The grill on deck 5 is a great spot to get a quick snack or fresh pizza

Ports of call

Quebec City, Quebec

5 out of 5
Excellent City to visit, came in early stayed at nice hotel and walked the city, visited the Cidedal and went out to Montgomery Falls Would visit again.

Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island
