We had never been on a cruise before and weren't sure what to expect (in general but also due to the COVID-19 Pandemic). WE WERE AWESTRUCK at how absolutely wonderful this experience was and have decided we are now, "Cruisers" for life! We loved every minute of our cruise and cannot wait to go on another one! Thank you, Royal Caribbean!

When it came to dining, we primarily attended the Sapphire Dinning Room. One of the members of our party has several food allergies, and this was no challenge for the amazing chefs, manager Desti, and his amazing team, who were able to transform items from the menu into safe, allergy friendly meals for the member of our party. Waiters/ waitresses: Hariyanto, Kateryna and Joselyn took great care of our party and were an absolute delight to spend time with. They were incredibly professional and very knowledgeable when it came to making suggestions from the menu. When they found out it was our honeymoon, they celebrated us and made us feel incredibly special with a special desert on formal night, and lots of cherished advice.
When we were in need of adult beverages, we specifically sought out Jelena and Turnip. Jelena was incredibly accommodating, professional and made a mean mojito! Turnip was entertaining from the moment you ordered your drink, until you left the bar-- professional and very talented.
Lastly, when we would make our way to the windjammer for a mid-day snack, Rayan was always the first to assist us, once we were at our tables.
Besides the above mentioned, we were blown away with every single person working on the ship during our stay. They made us feel at home and as if we were with family. They were all very polite, warm, inviting and accommodating-- THANK YOU.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
We were incredibly impressed by the cleanliness of the ship, especially given the COVID-19 Pandemic. We felt incredibly safe the entire time of our trip. Every surface was wiped down and sanitized multiple times an hour. The extra bonus was having only 600 people aboard a ship designed for 3,000 people. Everyone was able to social distance and have an enjoyable experience.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our cabin was moved to 8358. The room was beautiful, comfortable and very cleanly. Our favorite feature was the balcony, which was semi-private. The atmosphere was quiet and we hardly heard any noise from the hallways or other rooms.
Ship tip
Make time to visit something new every day. We were constantly discovering new things to do aboard the ship.
This island is immaculately taken care of. Very cleanly and just beautiful. With COVID-19 Pandemic, we felt the most safe on this island, as everything was cleaned and there were indications everywhere of whether surfaces had just been cleaned or if it needed to be cleaned, allowing you to navigate other guests safely.
Congratulations and glad you are joining our cruising family! We always book our Next cruise before we get off current cruise. We just did Oasis of Seas end of October for 2nd Halloween cruise, so much fun!!
I have only been on one cruise as well. Leaving on Thanksgiving Day for my second. This one solo. I was hooked after the first cruise as well. Congratulations on your wedding
