Review summary

I love cruising and was very excited to add Royal Caribbean to my experiences. Definitely geared toward children of all ages.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Priority boarding was fantastic!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Main dining dinner was scrumptious and the wait staff was superb. Buffets were super crowded and could use a bit more direction and organization. Drinks on the ship were great, although I would have liked to see more frozen drink selections.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

My children loved the ping pong table and they only problem I had is that most deck activities closed at 9pm, but minor curfew was 1AM.

Entertainment

Didn't attend any

Children's Programs

4 out of 5

Children liked the Fuel area where they had late night dancing. I don't like the late night activities for teens, 1am is too late.

I see lots of comments about hard beds. Personally I’ve never found them to be hard but just so you know for future cruise. If you tell your room attendant they will get you a softer topper.

I think that I would agree with you about the late night activities. 1 a.m. is later than necessary. Glad that you enjoyed your cruise.
