Review summary

Ports of call were not the greatest, have been to all of them before but We Were On A Cruise. We enjoy the ships and their crew. The WOW in Royal is from their crew.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very fast smart check in. Takes longer to get thru security than to check in.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Didn't do the main dining rooms but Windjammer food and service were great. Chops, we went 2 times. good food and service but the ribeye steak was not the best. Had better ribeye on Allure last October. Tried Jamie Olivers, my wife enjoyed it but I'm not a fan. Tried the solarium café, food was good but liked it better when the served healthy food (divinely decadent).

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Did Ifly, my 3rd time and getting better. Love it

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Have seen all the main shows before so only watched Spectras cabaret this time and headliner shows. As always Royal has top quality entertainment

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Joseph Ten Pow in the upstairs music bar and Rohan in the pub are both outstanding employees and made our cruise much more enjoyable

Ship Quality
