Review summary

The cruise was great and a perfect weekend getaway without using a lot of time off from work.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The embarkation was good. We had one unvaccinated granddaughter so there was the additional port antigen test when we got there. Other than that, it was a very smooth process.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was excellent, waiter and assistant waiter were on top of everything in the main dining room. Chops for breakfast was excellent. The Windjammer was great and the service perfect.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The pools were perfect, and our granddaughters really enjoyed the slides and splash pad. Plenty of lounge chairs and a special area for suites and Pinnacle were very helpful.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Grease was a great show! Rick Novell was a terrific entertainer and the ice show is always excellent!

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
Our 9 and 11 year old granddaughters loved the staff and the programs.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward and dining room staff were always on top of things. Never needed to ask for much. Everything was perfect!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Love the Royal Caribbean ships!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great size. Has a sleeper sofa for one extra so a great room for 3 people. Always clean and in order.

Ship tip

Get to the shows early. The ships are getting to capacity and folks are going to shows again so they're filling up.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
Easy port to negotiate and on-site parking is close.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We did the water park for the day and had a blast. The food was awesome and everything was open except the helium balloon due to wind.

Nassau, Bahamas Did not visit port

We did not get off the ship

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy off for us due to the suite concierge.
