Review summary

Overall we had a great time! However, this was my 4th cruise with Royal Caribbean and by far the worst. Food was not as good as years past. And the kids club was terrible.

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The food in the Windjammer was excellent! Unfortunately the food in the main dining room was not up to par.

Children's Programs

2 out of 5

My children (11 and 13) did NOT care for the children's program. Unfortunately children ages 6-12 are all grouped together. So my 11 year old didn't want to be with the little kids. My daughter said ages 13-17 in the teen club was too intimidating. I think Royal Caribbean needs to break up their kids clubs into more appropriate age groupings.

Appreciate your feedback. Sounds like your children were just out of sync with the youth programs, sorry that happened to them. Glad you managed to enjoy your cruise anyway.
