Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was very good, Loved the Coffee shop and Sorrentos Pizza! Buffet was actually pretty darn good. Food was hot and tasty. Dinner in the Main Dining Room was very good, and the Service was EXCELLENT!. Note - My son has a severe peanut Allergy and the Service Team went ABOVE AND BEYOND to take great care of him. They even went to the buffet (up 7 floors) to get something that he wanted, but they were not serving at the time. WOW!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Just right - Good size - pool was only a little crowded on Sea Days - Only had to wait for deck chairs for a few minutes. Hot tub in the Adult area was always full.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great shows - Cruise Director was a hoot!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Always a smile and a hello! Always!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship was in very good shape - Fresh paint and stain on the balcony, too.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Best cabin EVER! Aft cabins, love 'em. On Voyager-class ships, the "pole" cabin on the aft of the ship. Lots of room and a great balcony!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Got a Cabana - loved it! Dragons Breath Zipline was awesome!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
The ship docked in town and stayed late. Got to enjoy the town of San Juan.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Did the Caribbean Paddling excursion (not from RCCL). They were great! Paddled across to Pinel Island for the day. Lots of Sea Turtles, Crystal Blue water and a nice relaxing day on Pinel!

Basseterre, St. Kitts

4 out of 5
No Excursion just walked around the port. It was nice, not great. Same shops as San Juan, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, but prices seemed higher and the cab drivers were very pushy.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Good disembarkation - we were not in a hurry because we were flying out the next day. Had to wait in the main theater. A little disorganized, but it was fine. Luggage was EASY to find and quick to the shuttle and off to the hotel!

We're suppose to be on it July 29th. Probably not going to happen. We were on it 15 years ago and were excited to be on it again. Not sure what cruise ship we'll be on next or when. Probably not this year.

Thanks for the review! Love sailing on Adventure of the Seas! Today would have been our 3rd cruise on her. So sad the cruise was cancelled but very understandable!
