Review summary

Absolutely wonderful. The staff was exceptional and the best I’ve had since Covid. The ship was large and busy, but did not feel as crowded as some of the cruises I’ve taken half of its size. Loads of entertainment and lovely cabins.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Super quick. Amazing parking and loading.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Sodas tasted weird in the bars, but always tasted good at the freestyle machines. Food was mostly good, but when it missed, it really missed.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
This ship has a ton of activities going all of the time. Loved the diversity of things to do and see. There is literally something for everyone.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Life skating and aqua theater were my favorites, but bands playing in the Promenade were amazing too.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Honestly, this was the best service I’ve had since Covid. The staff were incredible and kind. Absolutely the best.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Staff were cleaning nonstop, and the ship never felt too crowded despite having thousands of passengers onboard. Royal absolutely did an incredible job with this ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Excellent cabin with extra space due to the slanted window at the front of the ship. You could hear the anchor, but it wasn’t too loud or bothersome. Definitely could feel more motion at the front, but again, it wasn’t too bad. Excellent room overall.

Ship tip

Book your shows through the app early. Arrive to shows 30 minutes early to get the best seats. When an elevator is empty, get on even if it’s going in the opposite direction. It is faster to do this.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
The fastest debarkation I’ve ever had. We lined up to get off at 6:30 and were on our car by 7:20am.
