Review summary

This was one of my favorite, top cruises I've been on (out of 10). Really enjoyed having the day at sea before and after Ensenada - it broke up the hustle & bustle of short cruises. I would specifically book this cruise again as the port is close to home, excellent food and drinks, and wonderful staff and entertainment.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

It was a little bumpy because the ship embarked out of a different SF Port than the main cruise terminal but everyone was professional and helpful.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The food was far superior than many Royal cruises I've been on. The Main Dining Room selections were all hits.

Entertainment

I enjoyed the evening shows very much. Wasn't expecting pyrotechnics and fire! All of the live music in the bars/clubs was very good as well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Ferry - our room steward was extremely attentive and helpful. Our room's cooling wasn't working well and we reported it to him before dinner. When we got back to our room after dinner and drinks, the room was nice and cool. The rapid response was amazing.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I like ships where there are nooks and crannies to relax and explore. The only odd place was Gatsby's Garden - an interesting walkway/sitting area under the theater. It was empty and went unused.
