Review summary

We had a good time on the cruise and may try Royal Caribbean again. Things I was disappointed in were the show that I mentioned above and the fact that the ice cream machines basically closed after 6 pm.

Embarkation

Great embarkation, everything went smoothly

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was good for evening meals but other meals during the day were just ok. Nothing special

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Worked out in the fitness center and felt they had a great selection of equipment.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
I was very disappointed in one particular show. The newlywed show. The couples did an audition at the beginning of the show and at one point you had at least two couples that were very lewd in their behavior. One couple was undressing themselves and humping each other on the side of the stage, the other couple jumped on the stage sat in a chair and were acting as if they were having sex. This was very disturbing to me and my wife. There were also young children in the show. I understand this should have been an adult show but even at that it was very disturbing. The least thing that should have happened is the couples should have been asked to leave the show for their actions.

Children's Programs

No children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I felt the service from the waiters and the room attendants were great.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Room was very clean at all times, one suggestion would be to take out the center table as it was basically in the way all the time. We had to keep moving it around and never really used the table, could have used the space more than the table.

Ship tip

A lot to do, just explore around.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida Did not visit port

just loaded there and unloaded, did not visit anything

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Took a private tour from one of the locals, good tour but felt a little uncomfortable with surroundings.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
very good place to visit, took tour around the island with a friend that lived on the island.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5
Nice beach but everywhere we went there were people trying to sell something. Could not get rest for having to deal with someone coming around trying to sell something.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very smooth.
