Review summary
The ship and staff were excellent, unfortunately because of poor planning by Royal, we couldn't enjoy any excursions, arriving late in Florida, Magic Kingdom closing, arriving late (2pm)in the Bahamas, couldn't take advantage of any of the excursions, like the hotel and beaches, Atlantis. The stores on the island closed at 6pm, so couldn't get off the ship to shop after dinner. The show on board was cancelled, because the director quit. The ship was very nice, but the food was below par in the restaurants.

Ship tip
Make sure you check your time of arrival in ports and excursions, or you maybe extremely disappointed. Make sure you make reservations prior to getting on the ship. Food in the restaurants were below average, as was the paid restaurants. Staff was very helpful. Best food was in the Windjammer.
