Review summary

Truly enjoyed this cruise; the small size of the ship; the friendly staff; the easy atmosphere; and the smoking area on the 5th floor! Suggest Royal offer courtesy transport from the ship to the end of the dock in such ports where the walk is long.

Best Raneil Thompson in the Schooner Bar, also the Tango Show was excellent and the Centrum Activities were all very good. The entertainers really got people up and dancing and being joyful.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Lambert Santos our room steward was superb, excellent service and friendly attitude all the time. Ron the waiter at the Schooner Bar was great all the time; serviceable, smiling always, willing to accommodate all requests. Also Aida(?) waiter from the Chops Grill we experienced the last night; a very charming young fellow who will go very far.

Ship Quality

Loved the size of the ship! So much easier to maneuver from one end to the other. Although old, it is very well kept by the staff daily taking care of her at the different areas of the ship. I compliment hugely the 5th floor smoking area. I have never sailed on a ship that offered such comfortable environment, with lots of lounge chairs and ashtrays kept clean and orderly daily.

The best port! Really loved this very beautiful island. We did not do an excursion but took a local driver who drove us all around the main parts. Excellent!
