Review summary
the ship is marvelous, well-appointed and extremely well-staffed; while onboard I booked another cruise on the same ship and I would recommend the 'Anthem' to any potential cruise-taker; since this was my 1st cruise I was slightly apprehensive but from the moment I arrived to embark I was amazed at the friendliness and helpfulness of the Royal Carib members who went out of their way to assist. For example, I arrived to embark without all my luggage (airline misplaced one checked bag) and it did arrive by messenger about 30-40 minutes prior to sailing. The RC staff at the embarkation location went out of their way to ensure that I was reunited with my bag when it arrived.
