We would definitely love to go back on the Horizon again & can’t wait to get back to Aruba & Dominican Republic.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
It took only maybe 10 minutes to go through the whole process & everyone was very friendly & professional.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The food was not the best part of the cruise but the people serving it were fantastic & enthusiastic. We ate main dining room late dinner every night. I wish they had more options like they used to. It was very similar menus with very little variations each night. My steak was raw two times & ribs were very fatty & too greasy to eat. The timing was excellent though as the dining room process moved along faster than ever. This could be because the ship is running only 50% capacity. Guys burger was ok and fries were great as usual. The deserts were pretty great at all venues. The clam sauce at Italian restaurant was very good.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
This boat has lots of great activities to fill an 8 day cruise with. The slides by the pool were lots of fun. The ropes course was great to do one day. The pools are a little small but necessary to make room for other activities. The gym was hot for working out but there’s outside equipment on track deck.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
My favorite was singer Reggi. Do NOT miss the One Night Only performance. We also did a couple other shows & singers/dancers did great. The comedians were good but nothing great like in the past.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our main dining room group were great & Jon was one very hard working fellow. He’d be at breakfast, lunch, & dinner until 9:30 at night. The guys who ran family harbor room were excellent too. All bar staff was friendly on this boat. I had no issues with anyone who worked on this boat.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Maybe it’s due to COVID but this is the cleanest ship I have ever sailed on & we do Royal cruises. I loved the hand sanitizing stations they had everywhere on the boat. These are a very clever invention.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
This cabin was great in space but the noises you hear were terrible and went on all day & night when the boat was moving. It was hard to sleep through a full night without the help of alcohol. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Some of the best beds at sea. Our cabin was clean although we found a baby bottle & cards for prior guest. The vibration on the aft of ship helped to soothe the body when boat was moving. This room was blocked view but it really wasn’t blocked at all.
