Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Cabin was great and well maintained. Designed for 4. There were 3 women and we were easily able to organize things.

Ship tip

Take Bonine for motion sickness even if you think you won't need it. I was very glad I had some. I am not prone to motion sickness but no one can predict how you will respond to rough seas during bad weather. Saved me from missing out on things.

It's great being retired and living just outside of Baltimore. I'll be sailing on Grandeur May 2 and again Aug. 22. Love the Grandeur.

Wonderful 12 night cruise. Little rough seas 2 days but no one has control over that. The Captain kept people informed of daily weather, etc. The crew in every area kind and very friendly. Eager to make our trip special. I will travel Royal Caribbean again most certainly.
