Review summary

room stewart and MDR wait staff excellent, ship very large and clean. Other staff rude (stores), food was not up to RC standards, Labadee extremely dirty waters with garbage ad personal hygiene items washing up on the beach ( left side ). Voom quick for first 5 days then went down number of times after they started selling the voom for the 2 day package. I believe with the food etc. was not worth the money that we paid compared to our other RC cruise.

Columbus cove is to the right at the back of the island. Plenty of signs directing you. Stay on the walking path to the right if you don’t want to go through the shopping area. They are aggressive. It is a nice beach with a lot of chairs, shade, and water activities. Nellies beach is also nice. The beach to the left (adrenaline beach?) was very dirty. Used condoms and other trash floating in the water and washing on shore. There was no swimming at that beach last week.

Sorry to hear that your cruise was not up to your expectations I don’t know of anyone that eats that well at home as for Labadee I don’t think it was their fault that the dirty water was there and some garbage it may have been from a storm that blown it in anyways she should’ve went to Columbus Cove better beach keep on cruising don’t give up I love to cruise

Btw... obviously the food meets RC standards, otherwise they wouldnt be serving it. Lol. It may not have met YOUR expectations or standards.. but I guess we cant know that from your vague statements and lack of any real details.

Maybe you should add details of where you ate and specifics as to what you didnt like. Vague statements of "food not up to RC standards" doesnt help anyone... lol
