Beautiful ship and itinerary - we recommend it highly. The staff and food and ports were lovely.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Smoothest ever, pre-registered and uploaded photos -- just ran the credit card and basically walked on board -- never stopped for more than a minute after arriving at the port
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The food was really good. The breakfasts in the Windjammer were outstanding. Maybe because they were catering to British tastes, but the breakfasts were very well done.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Really enjoyed flowrider, trampolines, gym, and Bingo!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Oh the skating shows and Grease were great! Murder Mystery Dinner was outstanding!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service on the ship was great, but I would say I found the spa staff a little too aggressive with sales pushes and whilst I was having a service I witnessed poor unprofessional arguing amongst the staff. I know the spa staff is a contracted organization but they need to be counseled.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Always like this ship's type layout.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
This was our first experience with a panoramic view cabin on deck 12. It was awesome -- great unobstructed views and since the cabin was newish, the furnishings were still in good condition.
Ship tip
Consider a panoramic cabin in lieu of a balcony to save dollars!
Loved this port. Wish that RCCL would make a deal with the Italian train authorities to allow cruisers to pre-purchase train tickets -- the line for the Cinque Terre tickets was over a 1/2 hour wait. Same for Rome (arrange for tickets to be bought from shore excursion desk).
Easy enough place to catch a train into Rome. The port itself was a nice city. RCCL might consider extending stay to 15 or ever overnight. 12 hours was still not enough.
Took an independent tour to Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii -- absolutely unbelievably beautiful -- but we didn't have enough time in port. RCCL should schedule at least 12 hours versus 8 at this port.
Really enjoyed RCCL tour to a Sherry Celler and then independent walk about the town and lunch. Nice city. was really surprised at the beauty and cleanliness.
