Review summary

Will not take short Cruise unless there is a place for adults over 21 can relax and unwind without being overwhelmed by unsupervised teens.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Slower than previous Royal Caribbean cruises

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Dining room slow service for dinner. Not as attentive as previous waiters probably due to inexperience of head waiter and assistant both being new to their positions. Seamed better final day.

Bionic Bar

1 out of 5

Waste of space

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Bumper cars, I Fly, North Star, enjoyable. Adult areas opened to 16 and over overrun by unsupervised teens. No place for adults to unwind hot tubes overrun by unsupervised teens. No more summer 5 day cruise for us.

Photo Gallery

2 out of 5

Facial recognition not up to par. Don't understand why you pay the same for digital or print. We used to be able to combine pictures from people in our group to put on one disc. But not anymore

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Too many technical problems. Karaoke to early other cruises do adult karaoke at 11pm not 8PM.

Solarium

2 out of 5

Overrun by unsupervised teens.

Library

3 out of 5

Not policed enough printed papers all over paper in printer out when needed

Children's Programs

Did not need

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Waiters new to positions not up to par yet.Room stewards great like always. Bar tenders great as always. Other ship personnel to dependent on Royal IQ which has its problems too. No way to stay in touch with group unless you pay for expensive Wi Fi. Library printer out of paper when trying to print our flight tickets to go home took 20 min to get someone to get more

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Clean well maintained rooms. Ship seemed smaller than past balcony. Ship seemed chopped up with too many angles.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Ship tip

Not if too many unsupervised teens stay away from 5day Cruise

Ports of call

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

4 out of 5
Canceled due to holiday

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Canceled due to weather If we go back to Bermuda it will be all inclusive resort. Bermuda is beautiful.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Well organized. Just missed using valet service from Florida

The Solarium is usually a good place to get away.

NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!!.,., cruise until the second week in May and never after the third week in June. Spring break is going great n April and first week in May,and school starts letting out for summer the last week of June and it’s just kid crazy on the ships at these times. We love going early May and first week of June before school is out . It’s quiet and just a few families.
