Review summary

This was our first Royal Caribbean Cruise. We enjoyed ourselves. Our stateroom attendant, Jeremy, was fantastic. The food was great and there was plenty of it. Although, the ship was older, it was very clean. We will go on another Royal Caribbean Cruise.

Embarkation

Easy access to port in Baltimore.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food choices in Windjammer were excellent. We didn’t try any of the specialty restaurants.The meals at the Great Gatsby were very good but we preferred the Windjammer’s relaxed atmosphere. Also, we could eat within an hour at the Windjammer whereas, at The Great Gatsby, it took between 2-3 hours.W

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The shows were okay. We’ve been on Disney cruises and the shows were excellent. The musical show with the band Rookie was excellent but other than that we weren’t impressed with the entertainment.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The ship’s personnel were excellent. We were very pleased with the service.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
For an older ship, it was very clean. Some rust in areas but we felt the ship was well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a stateroom with a balcony. The room was dated but very clean. The shower was a bit small.

Ship tip

If you want to see any special event presented in the Centrum, get there early. Our cruise had many individuals with walkers and canes. They would get to events early and not leave for hours. They were basically parked there.

Ports of call

Charleston, South Carolina

5 out of 5
Beautiful. We just walked around the city. We are going to take a trip there when we can spend a few days.

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
We took the Pontoon Lagoon excursion. It was very relaxing. We had the opportunity to see some manatee and different birds that frequented the area.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the warm weather and did some shopping.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
People were friendly but a bit pushy. We went to the Straw Market and got some good deals on some items.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Fairly easy to disembark. The employees of the Grandeur were very helpful and kept us abreast of when it was time to leave. We felt the Custom officials were a bit rude.
