Independence of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Loved every minute of this cruise. Also my sister got engaged!! Already looking at our next cruise :)

This was my first cruise. There was so much of EVERYTHING, it was overwhelming. Now that I have processed, I am hoping for another longer cruise in the future!

Over all It was very memorable experience. best vacation for us..

The cruise was memorable, everyone had so much fun. We will be planning another one very soon. One recommendation is to have more over the counter options for medication. Benadryl was something my family needed for my daughter that was not available. Overall the trip was fantastic we would recommend Royal and this ship to all our family and friends.

Very disappointing cruise and shore excursion. Will probably book independent excursions in April when we cruise next.

Good cruise with a couple of ideas how to improve it.

We had a great time. I would recommend to actually get an excursion from the ship.. we went outside and literally went on a taxi ride for 3 hours and brought back.. waste of money

Independence of the Seas is one of my favorite ships for small kids. There's still lots to do, but I don't feel like I'm paying for a bunch of extra features that I don't get to enjoy because I have small kids like I do on the larger ships.

A wonderful cruise. No complaints really. All the crew I met were so friendly and so were the passengers!

It was a great first time cruise. Not sure if I’d do it again anytime soon. But glad we went and got to see Jamaica and the Bahamas. Also, I don’t recommend going into Miami. I had very important items stolen out of our locked rental car and apparently that happens often. Very unfortunate.

It was my first cruise. Enjoyed it a lot. Would love to repeat.

Overall we had a pleasant experience. I'm not sure if we'd cruise with Royal again for reasons such as lack of entertainment for teens, having an Arcade Room that you must pay for each game, lack of seafood during dining.

excellent. did not expect such fun, was worried about overcrowded ship with lots of infection but it changed my view on crusing

Overall I give it a 4/5. Unfortunately our tour guide for both destinations weren’t what we expected. Would have been nice to do some excursions but they are just too pricey.

First time cruising. Pleasant new experience. Cabin steward was awesome! Food was ok. Really not sure if we are going to do this again

I am looking forward to our next cruise. We met a couple who were first time Royal Carribean cruisers but have sailed with other companies and stated Royal Carribean was the way to go. I have never cruised another company and honestly probably never will since I am so happy with all that Royal Carribean has to offer. Christmas Cruise 2023 was completed with great memories for my family and myself. Thank you!!

Overall it was nice. It was unsettling to be placed on different floors than my family although I requested connecting rooms at the time I booked and paid.

Our dinning room staff were AMAZING. We were so impressed with Joel and Sudana (table 205), they were incredible!!!

Overall we had an enjoyable time! This cruise was a first cruise for my daughter and I. There was a great deal of movement in the ship due to the high winds and weather, however, we enjoyed our time and look forward to booking our next cruise! We met quite a few people and enjoyed the activities - as well as our balcony room. Love making new memories!

Excellent ship with wonderful service. Traffic at miami port was awful on embarkation day. Arrive early! There was so much to do we never got bored and so thankful for the child care on board!
