Review summary

Great ship for you if you don't need/want the extra bells and whistles like rock climbing, flow riders, etc. If you like to have personal attention and meet both fellow cruisers and staff, this is your ship. I'm sorry to see it leaving the Royal Fleet.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
A bit slow, but not bad

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We do MDR mostly and they were very good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We mostly use the track for exercise and it was pleasant meeting fellow cruisers who were out for a walk at the same time.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Smaller ship so no Broadway shows, but you can't beat the non-stop live music. The Grandeur of the Seas Orchestra is fantastic.

Children's Programs

No kids with us

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We always find service to be excellent. This crew was over the top great. Especially in the dining room; they seem to anticipate your every need.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was well maintained. It's not a new ship, but very well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very well kept and maintained by room steward.

Ports of call

Baltimore, Maryland

4 out of 5
No excursion.

Port Canaveral, Florida

4 out of 5
No excursion. We planned to walk to the point park beach but ship did not dock in the same berth as previous cruise so walking was not an option.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We don't use the waterpark, but the pool and beach there are great. There's lots of food and beverage options all over the public areas.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
No excursion. This is an easy port to just get off and walk around the city.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Not bad, but it's still the old type of border processing so it takes longer than other ports.
