Review summary

Overall great Cruise. I went with low expectations and was very surprised with the experience! Enjoying your vacation is your choice and I always enjoy my time at sea. This was my 35th cruise and I'm booked on the Symphony of the Seas for April 20. Wishing you all happy cruising!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very quick and easy. Although receiving luggage to the second floor took to 7:30 pm.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I ate in dining room for dinner and food/service was good. Windjammer food was also good, but repetitive which I didn't mind but others may.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
I mostly hung out at the pool, but there were activities going on around the ship.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows were mostly good. Although the juggler/comedian wasn't to my taste.

Children's Programs

Didn't bring children.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was outstanding on this ship from my cabin steward to all the wait staff and guest services.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
For being over 20 years old, she is in great shape. Layout was very functional except for the Lyric Theater which is at the end of the 3rd floor (dead end) with no access to rest of ship other than stairs or elevators.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
It was very small but functional. It was a studio cabin for single occupancy. The bed was so close to the floor, I couldn't fit my luggage under the bed. I could only fit them in the corner of the room. They no longer change bedding during you cruise. They make the bed daily and provide fresh towels.

Ship tip

Go with the flow and enjoy your vacation!

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
Didn't do excursion, but debarkation was very good!

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
No excursion. Hung out at beach - beautiful!

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
Nice flea market village by port.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
No excursion. Docked at Crown Bay. Not as good as Havensight where other cruise lines dock.

Frederiksted, St. Croix, U.S.V.I.

3 out of 5
No excursion. Not much by port other than local flea market.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
As stated before, very quick and easy. I was in a scooter so that did help. But people were finding their luggage pretty easily. Took Uber from Port and that worked out very well.

You’ll see a big difference between Adventure and Symphony. Also have done 35 cruises ourselves, Royal is our favorite line.

I noticed our Dec cruise on Radiance the luggage was late. Never had that happen better. Hope it's not a trend. I need to unpack before I can relax😉
