Good trip, needs less days at sea though by donnaginn11

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Independence of the Seas

The staff is wonderful. The size of the rooms are reasonable. I do not recommend 2 back to back days at sea. It got boring. I like a day at sea to relax, but 2 back to back is just too much.

Decent Overall Experience by BillyDSoul

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Independence of the Seas

Royal Caribbean continues to up its quality with its newer class of ships. The older classes need to be either refurbished or phased out. This ship and experience felt very "carnival/msc" ish. It was the "motel" experience instead of the 5 star hotel/resort quality I prefer. I chose it for the price and quick getaway. You get what you paid for. I definitely did. Was not a bad cruise, but it was different than my usual fare.

Amazing Royal Treatment by shawnye0216

Ship: Independence of the Seas

Royal Caribbean - Independence, is a wonderful experience for anyone wanting to feel like they are a valued passenger. The time, attention and personal efforts given to the passengers by the staff was exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend this cruise.

Great cruise. Great entertainment made up for lack of ports. by abntopo1953

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas

Independence of the Seas is a great ship which makes up for the slower pace at visiting port. It was a beautiful experience to be with a diversity of people together enjoying the entertainment and activities on the ship. RC crew was delightful, witty, and very friendly. We are ready for our next cruise would most like be with RC since we have tried other lines and up to know this is the one most fit to our likings.

Washy - Washy, we even sing it to our son now lol. The cruise provided us with peaceful rest at night and filled our bellies with happiness. It was a much-needed vacation from our everyday lives, and we are truly thankful! Warm regards, K & D

Great time but there are changes by sglaskey

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Independence of the Seas

A very nice, albeit always too short, getaway to get my fix of the ocean and sun! Some things have changed over the years with RC that make me long for cruises of the past, but it is still a great value with a mostly consistent quality that we can count on.

Fun for the family! by okiedokie811

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Independence of the Seas

Great first cruise! Our rooms were really nice and we enjoyed everything the ship had to offer. It is literally a resort on the ocean so you can stay busy all day and night!

Wonderful Cruise by pcdoctor44

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas

Overall a wonderful cruise. Not happy about the drink package offering and the ship should have offered bottled water to its cruisers. The excursions are too expensive and too cumbersome. Still, an awesome experience. Coco Cay was our favorite but we loved Mexico too. A free tour would have been nice though. Cruise ships need to improve the rooms, especially the interior staterooms, which are too small for people.

What I liked and what I didn't by phundey

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas

We love Royal Carribean as a rule. Handling 4000 people can't be easy. We are booked on an Alaskan cruise next August. We have learned a lot about traveling as a senior with issues. We will adjust our activity accordingly.

Fun adventure by prnena1120

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Independence of the Seas

It was a lovely cruise, I wish it would last longer. I wish they had a free sauna like carnival. I wish they had kids characters walking around.
