Review summary
Our overall impression was excellent. It was our second cruise with Royal Carribean and we were even more impressed. The ship was grand from the royal promenade, to the boardwalk and the lushness of the central park. The shops were in great variety to suit all tastes. Our my time dining experience was top notch with great food choices and attentive service. We ate at two specialty restaurants, Chops Grille and Giovanni's table, fabulous beef cuts and italian dishes respectively. Our ocean balcony room was very clean and was attended to with great care and respect. Extremely friendly staff all through out the ship from Boleros to the casino staff, and the dining room. There were a lot of shows offered but were reserved very quickly after arrival on ship, we only saw Chicago. Other shows were available but times were either super early or too late. The interactive TV was very useful and the morning show by the cruise director was informative and entertaining. Our cruise to Labadee and experience there was good although it felt somewhat "staged." Falmouth Jamaica was nice with good shopping options. We were diverted to Nassau due to a storm, so we missed Cozumel unfortunately. Nassau is ok but have been there twice and it hasnt improved much. The ship itself is a destination. Awesome vacation and have already recommended this ship to others. Fabulous!!!Ship experiences
