Review summary

We tried every activity from FloRider (a blast to do), ziplining, rock climbing and ice skating, they were all not terribly crowded at all and a lot of in to do. The first day I was a bit taken aback because we had filled out all the release forms online and still had to wait in line to get a wristband behind people who had to fill out the form and show ID etc.. RCI should have had a second line for those who follow directions. Embarking and disembarking were fast and easy. We booked a balcony room overlooking the boardwalk and despite the bell clanging every time the carousel started, it was a great room, just know that when you book
