Review summary

This was our honeymoon and we met up with 16 other family members. It was a blast. Although it started out sour when the airline we traveled on (airtransat) loate my husband's luggage. Royal Caribbean provided excellent guest service trying to help us locate his suitcase. They provided him with shirts, followed up with the airline and delivered his suitcase. The bartenders seemed to be in slow motion, especially in the pool area and our first night at dinner but it did not ruin our experience. The entertainment wasn't the best. The crooner was awful and the once upon a time was cheesy. The magician, Hector was ok. The love and marriage show was so bad we left. They let a highly intoxicated gentleman participate and he was annoying. Overall the guest service was above and beyond and we had a great honeymoon.

Needs some updating. Fitted sheet had a hole in it, mirror was dirty, smelled musty. All was rectified.

Ship tip

Good in Windjammer was good and more importantly had great selections. We weren't fans of Giovanni's. The veal tastes like a dry overcooked piece of pork. Johnny Rockets was a great option. The pizza needs some work. It was bland. Isaacs was always good. I like how the menu changes, as it is small
