Review summary

We love the new larger ships. Many choices to be made everyday. We were sailing during Halloween. There was a costume parade along with lots of music and other activities, to include trick or treat for kids. The dining was great as usual. The photographers do a great job also. The buffet was a little busy at peek times but we always managed to find a seat. Having 6000+ guests must be a huge challenge. I commend Royal Caribbean for the great effort they put into making sure everyone has a great time. 5 stars from us!!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We were very satisfied with all the dining we had on the cruise. A lot of effort is put into pleasing so many people. It is a shame to hear some complain that their lemonade is not that good, watered down. The way I see it, is that the meals are more and better than most of us have at home.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Plenty of chairs to sit in, pools always clean. Miniature golf and the zip line were fun. The walking/running track was in good shape.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We attended 4 shows, all were outstanding. A large variety of music in many locations.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The staff are the most dedicated hard working people around. My hat off to all of them, especially those behind the scenes.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Always ship shape.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We had a nice room with a verandah. Plenty of room for us. I love that there is room under the bed for the suitcase. Always kept clean by housekeeping.
