Independence of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Veterans Day sailing was full as to be expected, but the ship is well-designed, and the deck 4 outdoor promenade was always a quiet spot to relax with a book. The musicians and ice skaters were top-notch.

This was my first cruise with Royal Caribbean and overall I loved it. It will definitely not be my last but probably the shortest. Already thinking about an eight night cruise

Had a great time, eat in the dining room as often as possible, service is amazing

I would recommend this cruise for everyone. Labadee was beautiful and you should try the zipline. It was amazing. The staff of the ship were all very friendly and helpful as well as those on the island.

Labadee is a great example of what a private island should be. Now they simply have to offer Haitian food to complete the entire experience.

The cruise was relaxing and overall we had a good time.

This was our 2nd cruise with Royal Caribbean and although this ship was older, it was still a great experience.

This is a great cruise ship and recommend it highly! 6 out 10 cruises have been on the class.

The cruise was very relaxing and enjoyable. The staff, from the bar to the room attendant and all other areas in between, were very polite and efficient.

Not many activities, the anytime dining took a while and noisy. Room cleanliness was not the best.

Loved our Mom's getaway. Kate was very helpful and made sure all our questions were answered! Can't wait to cruise again!

This was a cheap get away for 5 days that got extended another day due to the hurricane. The crew was great on the ship. We usually use Celebrity or Princess for our cruising (which is a little more money). The difference in price shows with the class of entertainment.

Miami's terminal old and dirty windows and paint peeling off the columns. Food was good but not great. Captain knew we were going to have bad weather arriving Cozumel and the next day at sea and didn't change the route. Many people with sea sickness.

Rained most of the time. Cruise shortened due to weather. Cruise too short and not enough activities for bad weather.

I think royal caribbean tried their best to make up for the lost day of the cruise, but you can't fight mother nature and the rain was just too much.

Kids had a good time. The service was outstanding.

This was the first time we went on a cruise and we will definitely go again. The ship was spectacular and the staff... there are no words to describe how kind, helpful, and skilled they are. I kept thinking there was a catch, lol. LOVED the main dining staff and our cabin steward. We also had a great couple's massage and I got my toes painted. Honestly the best pedicure I ever got. The food and venues and all of the activities were wonderful, although the virtual reality activity was gone and we were bummed about that. We talked to 3 other couples who said it was their third time booking this ship because they love it so much. We can see why!

Overall a wonderful experience. We had so much fun and made new memories

Our favorite short trip cruise ship is Independence. It does the work for us to relax, enjoy food and company, have a laugh, do our exercises and dance a little.

My Royal Caribbean cruise was excellent. My family and friends had a great time.
