Independence was great. While not as big and fancy as the Oasis class ships, she is beautiful in her own right. Loved the size, as we never felt crowded. We had a great trip!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation was very easy, and hardly had to wait at all. RCI seems to have this part down pat.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food was overall very good, some hit or miss items at the MDR and Windjammer, but overall very good.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Very impressed with the quality and quantity of activities.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Shows that we saw were all top notch. This is RCI's strong point in my opinion.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Service is second to none. Always very attentive.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Not the newest ship, and it shows signs of it's age. Going in for refurb next month. Still very nice and very clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
First time ever in an interior cabin! No problems at all. Not the biggest of rooms naturally, but big enough for the two of us. Rooms are generally not a major thing for us, we just don't spend enough time in them for it to matter.
Ship tip
Solarium area is pretty small, if you want a seat, go early in the day.
