The crew really went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. We had Grace and Karolina for our waiters and we miss them! They were always smiling, running around serving everyone without making it look like a chore. They were engaging and fun to talk to!

Ship tip

The rooms are really small, but there is ample storage. Behind mirrors and everywhere storage can be placed, they placed it. We really liked the size of this ship. Not too big and not too small.

I wore dressy sandals at dining room and specialty restaurant,Chops Grill.

I can't report on this ship, but every RCI ship we have sailed I have worn pool attire at Windjammer, including sandals. The dress code for the table service restaurants don't allow sandals though, but even then they ate very, very relaxed at lunch.

Question for you about Windjammers...the RC website says fully covered shoes are required. Does that mean shoes that cover the entire foot, like tennis shoes or does it simply mean that you have to have some sort of shoe on? Thanks!
