Review summary

This was my first cruise since the pandemic began. Cruising is different but we were so ecstatic to be out and about and to be back on a ship. Our family had a fantastic time, loved the excursions and destinations. Thankfully we made it through without any disruptions or cases that we were aware of. Thanks to the service team again... Except for the masking, everything felt normal and we had a blast!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

This process was fairly smooth including obtaining an antigen test to board. Try to obtain the appointment code before to accelerate the process.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Royal Caribbean makes the best drinks. Food was good. The servers tried very hard to ensure we were happy with our dishes.

On the small ships this is usually good but not great.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The service was really excellent. Charles - room steward, Charleen - waitress, Ralp and Joanalene - our servers.. Deckster and Alona - restaurant managers went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time! Thank you for the wonderful service!!
