My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our first cruise. All 9 days. Royal Caribbean was a big part of that. We never wanted for anything and there was so much to enjoy, it was amazing. The ports were fantastic and the sea days were fun filled. The disembarking and reloading at all the ports went without a hitch and were handled professionally. We look forward to sailing wth Royal again soon.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We loved the food in all the restaurants with plenty of variety. Wonderland exceeded the hype in presentation and quality. All of the staff went above and beyond. There was plenty of variety to choose from and always different.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Enjoyed the sunny days outside on the pool decks. Snuck in some laps on the track around the ship. Also hit the north star (wow!!) And the rip cord, exciting. So much to do. Had to come home to rest. The solarium was never over crowded for us. We enjoyed the Casino as well.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
All shows were outstanding. The comedy shows were great. The 3D movie was fun too. Really enjoyed Trivia games in the various venues and bars. Something going on all the time.
Children's Programs
Just my wife and I on our first cruise but ther was s lot of things for kids of all ages. Just a note, all the children we encountered were enjoy able.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our steward, Alfred, was outstanding. He kept our trip enjoyable and always had advice or tips about the days activities. Can't say enough good things about his service and professionalism.
The rest of the crew and wait staff always went out of their way to make our cruise positive and fun. Our waiter, Everest, in the American Icon Dining Room along with Antoio, were awesome. They were on top of every aspect and made our visits enjoyable. They were greatly appreciated.
Peter in the Wonderland Restaurant made the experience super fun. Worth every minute.
We can't say enough about all the Royal staff, we will sail with them again soon.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
We never felt crowded even with 5000 freinds onboard. The ship was super clean and they reminded everyone to washy washy our hands. We did the behind the scenes ship tour (outstanding) and they practice the same cleanliness everywhere. We were very happy and healthy the entire cruise.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Plenty of room even though we over packed. The balcony was awesome to sit and enjoy quiet nights and drink our wine. We had plenty of privacy. Overall, very clean and spacious for the little time we spent there.
Ship tip
Down load Royal IQ and be tuned in to the days activities.
Enjoyable. The island tour was great. We saw both sides of the island. Landscape was alittle dry and they coud use some water to green up. The people were great.
We were purchased the Key program and it was great throughout the cruise. It really payed off on disembarking as we were escorted off the ship quickly. Quite honestly, we did not see any problems on our exit, only tears that our cruise was ending.
