5 out of 5
I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Good was pretty good. Our waiter, Jimmy and his assistant, Viera, were wonderful! We loved them.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were crowded! Too many kids! No pool for adults only!! Cruise DIRECTOR did not seem to be very enthusiastic.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows in theatre were good. One was excellent (88 keys). Macio was hilarious. He was a comedian and we saw him twice!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Jimmy and Viera were AWESOME in the MDR. Our steward was ok. Didn’t go above and beyond. Other bar waiters didn’t seem to care or try too terribly much.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
It was okay. I did like the adult only deck area. Need a pool for adults only.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was good and comfortable. Convenient location.

Ship tip

Pay extra and go Royal Caribbean.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
If we had been on an excursion in town with the other two cruise ships, it would have been way too crowded. Luckily, we did an excursion that didn’t have to fight with crowds.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

4 out of 5
Enjoyed our excursion here very much and not crowded.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
On the ship, it was terrible. There were probably 1000 people all waiting on deck 4 to disembark with self carry luggage all at the same time. Couldn’t use elevators because the only place to get off ship was forward and it was way to busy. Had to carry everything through all those people when muster station was called. Should have had all muster station people report to a location together to disembark. Ie: sapphire dining room, theatre, and other areas, not congregated all on deck 4 forward for a deck 3 gangway!

Were you in the sailing after Thanksgiving? If so, I was too. I’m also thinking about going back next on RC. Do you know if they have a comedy club? We loved Macio as well
