Independence of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

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.

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!

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

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!

Great ship. Nice size. Doesn’t feel old . It was definitely a nice 4 day cruise

Excellent, don’t have any complaints. I would do it again

Great time. Even though it was for just one port, Labedee was the best port for all 3 to 5 days Caribbean/Nassa cruises.

Unfortunately I can't review the trip, because your food in dining was horrible.

Overall this cruise was fantastic the ship has everything you would need or want for a short cruise. The crowd was fun and we had a nice time relaxing with friends and getting away

Quick check in. The ship was in excellent condition and the layout made it EZ to get from one end to the other. We ate in the dining room for all dinners and the food was OK...nothing great...OK. Menu was varied and portions were small. If you are looking for quiet and relaxing...you won't find it...unless you went to the serenity (adults only) pool area. I booked this cruise thinking that all schools are in session and that there wouldn't be that many kids...WRONG! It's amazing that some parents take their kids out of school for a week.

Lots of things to do for all ages. Perfect for large groups & large families.

I really love the fact that the only stop is Labadee with a sea day before and after. Its my favorite port and we get a chance to really enjoy the ship before and after.

My first cruise even and I will definitely take another Royal Caribbean cruise. Totally an awesome experience.

Cruise was over all okay, Enjoyed the staff at the bars and restaurants but the food was lackluster in the main dining room. Bed was not as comfortable as my last cruise and room needed updated, as it looked old and outdated. Enjoyed the ability to relax and unwind though.

Cruise was good, but day at sea was a waste. If doing a cruise, pick one that goes to a port each day. Too many people to enjoy the onboard amenities if all guests on ship.
