Review summary

Was very dissapointed with Royal Carribean and ship. Have taken 3 previous cruises with them. Took 7 members of family and felt bad so much wrong. Will try another cruise line next time!

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Not a lot. WAY to crowded. No room in pools and hot tubs filled with children. A hot tub I was in had to get out because 12 children in it and they were in for over an hour, they think it’s their personal pool swimming and parents weren’t even in it with them. Saw one grandfather wipe his grandaughters snotty nose and dip his fingers in and wash them off. No more hot tubs for me after that.

I’ve sailed her 5 times including one family cruise with 15 of us. Always had an amazing experience.
