Review summary

This was very relaxing and in would recommend RCCL cruiselines. In fact we have already booked our next cruise.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
It was very organized but a little rushed and not sure where to park after our luggage was taken.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Drinks were pricey - averaged $11-13 so didn’t drink so much. Food was great!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Pools and hot tubs were nice. Wish they would monitor deck chair use as many would come up at 6:00 a.m. and put stuff on chairs but never arrive until after lunch. Not fair to others. It should not be up to passengers to monitor chair use. Chairs should be tagged by staff and then items removed if not in use.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Loved the hypnotist Tysen. Ice skating show could use better choreography.

Children's Programs

No children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room steward Beautina was great.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Beautiful but hard to get to Studio B and had to figure out we couldn’t get to our cabin unless we got off on a floor 2 flights up.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Beds were awesome, plenty of storage and very clean.

Ship tip

Get up early if you want a deck chair!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida Did not visit port

Just drove there and got on ship

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
Unusual looking town and excursion was fun!

Kralendijk, Bonaire

5 out of 5
Good snorkeling and beautiful waters. Locals were not real friendly.

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
Good local guide and excursion. Pretty city.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth although they did run about 45 minutes behind.

Outstanding review guys

Tag and take, that's how it's supposed to work. It's also why the towel charge was put in place to try to stop people from leaving them for too long. Now if they were to remove all items without a blue towel, those people getting $25 charges will stop being chair hogs.

Super, so glad you enjoyed it

Liked your idea about tagging the chairs. A note could be left on it something along the lines of chair left unoccupied from such and such a time. Items can be retrieved at towel station or wherever. There has to be someway to combat that issue.

So glad you enjoyed, my very first cruise was on this ship back in 2004 and at that time it was one of the largest ships but wow look at now.

Glad you had a good time! We are booked for Adventure end of July. Different itinerary. After the 10" of snow we got overnight we are ready for the cruise!!
