Review summary

This cruise was to celebrate our 47th anniversary. We were impressed the moment we stepped onboard this beautiful ship.  The staff was smiling and friendly from the moment everyday we were onboard.  This was one of the most relaxing cruises we ever experienced.  

 

There are many choices of things to do onboard.  Sea days were relaxing, and plenty of seating around pools.  The dining room food was excellent with many choices.  The dining staff were all very attentive to our needs.  This was the first cruise we took that the room steward gave us his card with his extension.  Whenever we needed anything, we just had to call him, and he was there with whatever we needed.  He kept our room spotless, and inviting. 

 

 The only negatives I have to say about this cruise, is the big screen TV at the main pool, on Sunday the Compass advertised NFL game to feature Miami Dolphins.  We are fans and watch all the games.  Well, the game was playing, and right in front of the screen a loud band started playing.  it was very distracting.  The other negative was the internet service we paid for.  It was not very good.  dId not meet our needs as it did on other RCCL cruises.

 

The entertainment was fantastic.  Grease was the best production show we ever seen on a cruise ship.  All I can say is if you have an opportunity to cruise on this ship, jump at it.
