Review summary

I enjoyed the cruise and two days in Bermuda was interesting. There are always new places to see there.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Perfect. Dropped off luggage, parked the car, walked to terminal. No lines at security. They did take away my open water bottle.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Service in the main dining room is always good. I ate there every night. Izumi was a perfect lunch. Taste of Royal was fun and delicious. I only went to Windjammer once in search of chocolate chip cookies and a banana. I found a banana. I had refreshment package so I had coffee drinks made for me every day. The only cocktails I had were a lavender daiquiri and a bloody mary -- both delicious. Room service breakfast was below par this sailing.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I went to the spa twice. The staff is very friendly and I had a great massage and new haircut. Art auctions were fun but I attended knowing that I would not allow myself to make a purchase. (I still have three works at home that need framing).

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The ship's musicians are fabulous. I only attended a few of the shows and they were good. I did not go to the ice show as I've seen the same show on previous sailings on Adventure.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room attendant, Iwayan Tapawana, was wonderful. He anticipated my needs and made the best towel animals. Waiters were good. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. A few staff still do not know what The Key is.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I always have trouble on this ship as some decks will not allow you to navigate unless you go up or down a flight. This is a flaw that causes backup at elevators. There were several pathways that are dangerous. I tripped once and saw other people do the same.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Size was perfect for me -- a solo traveler. It was nice to have a closet. The cabin was 100% better than the solo cabins on the ship.

Ship tip

Ask your room attendant for a printed copy of the Compass daily news. Download the app and use the calendar. Unfortunately you cannot add things like appointment at the spa or art gallery or lunch. Bring magnets to hang things on the walls -- hat, sea pass, jacket, shower cap, backpack, etc. Bring a jacket to wear as a layer.

Ports of call

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

5 out of 5
The port is wonderful. The area continues to grow so much that my gps has a hard time getting me there. I live 35 minutes away so I did not do any sightseeing.

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Clean, friendly people, lots of shops, and a museum. They let me observe dolphin swimming and that was fun. I did not get to the rum cake area this trip. I ate lunch at Frog and Onion.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Perfect. Luggage went out the night before. I had my key breakfast and left the ship. There were no lines so it was easy. There were porters near my luggage and I asked one for assistance. He put my bags in my car. I paid for parking and drove out.
