Review summary

This was our first RCL cruise. We have sailed with princess before. There is only a few small things that I wish RCL would change. Our seapass cards were left on our door to our cabin. I would rather get them when we check in. The mattress was hard and worn and needed to be changed. Other than these 2 things, we were very impressed with RCL. The ship is so big you don't even think you are at sea!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We purchased the key because this was our first cruise with RCL and we wanted to see all of the shows and use the internet while on board. The key made this process seemless!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We didn't experience any of the specialty dining restaurants, the main dining room was awesome. The windjammer was great also. The food was very good!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We love the solarium! No kids under 16 allowed in the pools and hot tubs! The shows were great, so glad we booked all of the show.

Entertainment

The shows are amazing, don't miss any of them

Service and Staff

Our room steward was amazing. Our waiters in the main dining room were out of this world.

Ship Quality

The ship was very clean, we love central park! what an experience that is!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin was clean. I thought for a balcony it was a little small. The mattress could use replacing but that is our only complaint while on board.

No need to spend money on the key.

They are doing the seapass cards at the cabin door now to speed up the checkin process.

I believe all cruise lines are doing the seapass cards at the door now.
