Review summary

Let me start off by saying that our family cruises very often, on many different ships with different companies. From the moment we boarded the ship, we knew instantly that this would be different. The ship is BEAUTIFUL. And Massive!! It is definitely worth its Royal Caribbean Class. 

 

As with all cruises, the activities were properly scheduled. If your new to cruising, make sure you make reservations! That is key. Unfortunately for us, one of the "reservation-only" activities sold out within the first hour of boarding the ship. So reservations are important for both activities and shows (download the Royal Caribbean app!)

 

SO many amazing things to do on the ship! Our mission for the 7 day duration of our cruise was to do every activity....and we did! (but I must say, it was tiring...but a good tiring.) Every day was a new adventure! Very very pleased.

 

The shows were also greatly! Some of the you also have to reserve so make sure to do so early! Plus I love the shows that involve audience participation.  I was extremely pleased. 

 

WE ARE GOING BACK SOON!

I'm assuming the North Star is already booked because I couldn't book it online. My bf will be very disappointed if we can't do that

We were on this ship In January and I am taking my children and grandchildren in July. I love this ship! Yes- make all reservations for shows, North Star, and iFly on line as soon as they open!! I am very excited to see my grandchildren's reactions to the SeaPlex- they live sports! So much to do- this is definitely a family ship!'
