Review summary

We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise.  Every port was exciting and offered wonderful excursions.  The ship and everyone that works for Royal Carribbean do their best to make your vacation as memorable as possible.  My only criticism would be that we had prepaid our gratuities which offers a "my time dining"  option which requires you to make dinner reservations between 9:00 - 4:00.  We were so busy in port and never were on board at the appointed time to make reservations resulting in us only utilizing the dining room once.  Overall, this was the most best cruise we have taken so far.  We look forward to many more!

Ship tip

Central Park Cafe was our special place for a healthy breakfast complete with the beautiful ambiance that only central park can offer. It is definitely a more private and quieter dining experience than the Windjammer Cafe. I highly recommend it!
