Review summary

Would sail this ship over and over again! Staff were over the top and so kind. Sea days were surprisingly my favorite. The ports of call would be avoided in the future, specifically Aruba. Nothing to do and very unclean (sewage overflow during a bit of rain). Labadee, Haiti made up for it in every way though.

Service and Staff

I was spoiled being waited on hand and foot by waiters and housekeeping constantly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Easy to navigate after a quick look at the Royal app. Signs everywhere. Staff always sanitizing and cleaning.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Show size was small, but I don't mind. Others might. View was amazing on the 11th deck.

Ship tip

Don't hesitate! This ship is amazing!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

4 out of 5

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Perfect sunshine and beachy activities. Lunch served for free by staff. Watch zip liners fly by while you catch rays and breathe the ocean air. Perfection.

Oranjestad, Aruba

1 out of 5
Terrible sewage systems. It rained a moderate amount and overflowed into the streets. Will avoid this P.O.C. in the future.

Willemstad, Curacao

4 out of 5
Beautiful architecture and buildings. A bit of construction going on which pulled away from the experience but it's understandable.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Constant flow. Bags were ready at the port immediately after getting off ship. Facial identity was handy and needed no paperwork or digging around in my backpack.
