Review summary

It was a great getaway with the family, even though we had moments we weren't to happy with we made the best of it and enjoyed ourselves. Not sure if we're cruise Royal again or any time soon but we will definitely be on another cruise sooner than later.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
quick & easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
There were some issues but all in all ok experience

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
could have had more times for popular activities, IFly was great, bumper cars, north star great!

Entertainment

3 out of 5
shows were good, sucks that you had to preregister. just because you may feel different when the day actually comes, there was a day we would have preferred a different time due to wanting to relax or conflict with kids activities. The DJ could have been better, better music choices and engaging with the crowd.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
kids enjoyed their entertainment

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Room attendant was very friendly, wait staff was extremely slow to the point where we left breakfast in the dinner room after 2 hours and not having all our food. Cruise director could have been more present, I didn't even know who the director was until day 3

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
beautiful ship, clean in some party, so parts needed some extra TLC, in the windjammer someone threw up and when the cleaning staff came they didn't do a great job there was still an area that still had residue from the vomit. The sink in the windjammer still had sand in it on day 8 when we hadn't ported anywhere the day prior so the sand had to be from 2 days prior

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
cabin was good, size ok virtual balcony and TV constantly was glitching and not working. TV channels weren't the best of options

Ports of call

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

4 out of 5
great easy on easy off boat

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
went on a tour to horse shoe bay

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5
it was ok, we stayed in the little plaza and shopped

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
good we toured and shopped

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

4 out of 5
good relaxed on the beach, the market place was a little over whelming with the locals being so pushy to by their items

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
good experience

I agree about the preregistering, it's a vacation, I don't want to be tied down to a schedule.
