Overall the cruise lived up to our expectations, whoever is in charge of purchasing of wine is too enamored with California wines and needs to have more French and Italian wines. The staff on board is incredibly friendly and I don't think I've ever been on a cruise where I saw the captain as often as I did on the Anthem. He was in every specialty restaurant that we were in checking on tables and making everyone feel special.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Best Windjammer of any Royal Caribbean ship we have been on. Never ate in the dining room, had an unlimited dining package. The Italian roast coffee is so much better than the Seattle's best that we had on the Allure, hope all of your ships are now using it. Went to the diamond club room one day for breakfast, it was terrible, old looking dried up meats and cheeses, if it was supposed to make us feel special about being a diamond member it failed horribly. Never went back to that room.
Vintages

Marina was fantastic, the two guys she was working with never seemed to do anything but polish a few glasses while she waited on everyone.

Introduce yourself to Reluca at Jamies Italian, she is fantastic.
