We had a great trip and will look for similar boat amenities on our next cruise.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We were there early, but we only waited in the port area for an hour or so before being let into the ship. The lines at our time moved very fast and seemed efficient.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
There were no bad experiences here with food. It was all good. We did the main dining for dinner and the buffet for breakfast and lunch. They keep trying to get you to go to the alternate dining, but we didn't feel like it was necessary. The food was good.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
With us being at sea for 4 days, we never felt bored or without anything to do. Our only regret is not doing the rockwall and surfing more. We waited until the last day to do those...
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The water show was phenomenal. The comedy shows were funny! We went to all family friendly entertainment. We enjoyed all the shows.
Children's Programs
Our child was alone and decided to stick with us the entire time. We didn't utilize this feature.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff and service received in both dining and room were excellent. They were very friendly and helped with any request we needed.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship seemed clean. We never encountered any issues. The stairs were available on both sides of the ship and the number of elevators were acceptable. The features/amenities of the ship were one of the main reasons we chose this vacation.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The cabin was acceptable. It would have been nicer to have a little more room when the two beds were prepared. Also a little more sink room or removing the glass shelf above the sink might have been better. We were very glad we chose a balcony though.
Ship tip
Don't wait until the last day to use the surf rider and rock wall. They are too much fun to only experience for one day!
The water was warm and clear at the beach. The aqua park excursion was really fun with the kids. The roller coaster was fun but the wait was too long. The local market was the only negative experience on the whole trip. I am very glad there was a tram option to truck you from one side to the other, as this allowed you to skip all the locals trying to sell you their stuff. TAKE THE TRAM!
If I remember right, we got there around 10AM in the terminal. They let us on the boat around 11AM. The room was available at like 1PM. If you get there early, you can wait in the terminal area. You will just be jostling around the people leaving and looking for a ride.
What time did you arrive at the port? I'm trying to figure out how early we can get there this Sunday. I think they told me on the phone that customs can take 3 hours to certify the ship since it's so big, so I'm assuming 9am at the very earliest.
Thank you!
Great review, awesome ship! We were on the ship the same week, which was our second consecutive week on it. We could have stayed 2 more weeks! Highly recommend Royal Caribbean and Oasis class ships!
