This is our 6th cruise and the best one out of all 6 cruises. We will probably never go back to Carnival or Norwegian. Royal Caribbean outdid you all. The Norwegian Jewel comes in 2nd though.

We did not go due to hurricane Dorian but the beach in Haiti was amazing.

We did not go here either due to Hurricane Dorian but Falmouth Jamaica was a great substitute.

We left our room and walked right off the boat. The quickest and easiest ever.

Central Park was my absolute favorite deck. Amazing and beautiful and the birds and crickets added to the attraction

It's a ship..cruisers like us know this. I've cruised with Norwegian many times and Carnival once. We had a very good time. You make the vacation. Not all cruises will be the same. We've sailed with Royal three times..great cruises.

I also agree with everyone I’ve only sailed with RC 10 times and never been disappointed as I say why fix it if it isn’t broke I’m sure the other cruise lines have some nice things to offer but Royalcaribbean has everything I need keep on cruising I love to cruise

I’m glad you had a great time! We have only sailed RC, so I have nothing to compare it to. We have always been very happy with them, so we decided it wasn’t worth risking an ok time on another cruise line when we know for sure we will have a great time on a RC ship.

We have always had so much left over cupboard space in our cabins for 2 people even on 19 day cruises, so it all depends on how much you take. We still pack too much & bring many items home again unworn 😉
