Adventure of the Seas

6 Night Western Caribbean (Ft. Lauderdale Roundtrip)

Sail date: November 17, 2019

Ship: Adventure of the Seas

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 5 years ago

Review summary

Very disappointed with port of call choice. The new thing for cruise lines are made up ports far away from the cities in order to gauge travelers on the tours.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Layout is better than modern ships. Ship was very clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Pillows and mattress very hard and uncomfortable. As the ship is almost 20 years old the shower stall was made too small compare to today's

Ship tip

Dont sail on Adventure of the Seas unless you are a smoker. Smoking is permitted on the 11th floor pool side and on the 4th floor Casino but the smoke filters to the 3rd floor and the fifth floor Promenade choking non smokers like me and ;my wife.

Pick your trip on the ports, not the ship.

Those are some of the best and most popular ports in the Caribbean. There are lots of things to do with a little research ahead of time. The immediate port area should never be the only place someone goes.
