The ship was beautiful, clean, and the layout is pretty easy to learn! Go all the way forward on the outside Promenade deck and go out on the helipad for amazing forward views!!

Love Port Canaveral! Always fast and easy to get on and off the ship!

Nassau, Bahamas

This was before the new port had opened. So we walked around the old port parts of Nassau before they had cleaned the area up.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Loved Royal’s private island! Good vibes, good beaches, and plenty of space for everyone to spread out!!
