Independence of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

This is our 4th cruise on the Indy. Love the ship. Can’t wait to go again. It’s a great get away trip.

It was a good get away at a fair price but royal caribbean customer service was not helpful but our agent through cruiseonly was wonderful!

Our cruise was a graduation and Christmas gift for my granddaughter. We had the KEY which we greatly enjoyed. It was well worth the extra expense. The KEY allowed us a lunch without a crowd, and to have our carry-on luggage delivered to our room. It was nice to do the safety briefing by an app. We had the Taste of Royal which was my granddaughter's favorite thing. We spent a lot of time in the jacuzzi and on our balcony. We had room service bring us our morning beverages as well as pastries. All in all, it was a vacation to remember for both of us.

Wonderful first time experience. The staff was so helpful. The entertainment was first class.

Service was lacking. Food was average. Overall the cruise was below my expectations. Staff seemed to be not very energetic.

It was a holiday weekend birthday cruise for our neighbor. This cruise fit our purpose.

My travel agent is Christina Petty @ Dream Vacations. She is wonderful! I have had to book and rebook cruises because of covid, and she was so helpful thru all of the craziness! We both feel like we bonded over it. I am ready for my next cruise..lol.

Mr Mark (room steward) and Me Merta (dining room waiter) made this such a memorable trip for the boys. They quickly became friends. The shop has lots to do, but it's hard to become aware of all the options, even using the app.

A great weekend cruise to get away and relax, 1st time experiencing Coco Cay and I am very excited to be returning on a different ship mid July. The Main Dining Room experience always comes through spot on, our attendant was on point and personable.

Memorable Bahama Breeze was in fact memorable unfortunately due to the weather. If it had not been for the staff, service, accommodations, food/drink, and performers we would have been disappointed. Long story short we applaud the crew and performers. There are charges on my bill AFTER we received our statement that we will be looking into - not sure yet what these extras were.

Cruise was ok for younger people...especially if they don't care about quality of food and just want quantity...The mega ships is not for us...maybe it comes with age and not into staying up late partying...we did it in our younger years...

Good cruise, some things to work on but very pleasant.

Ship was very nice and didn’t feel crowded. Getting off the boat at Nassau wasn’t worth it to us due to the crowd and locals harassing you right when you get through the gate. Coco Cay was wonderful and can’t wait to return!

This was my first cruise, but it won't be my last. The embarking experience was not good. But, other than that I had a great time.

We loved The Independence! Ship was beautiful ! We loved the Holiday Decorations ! Staff were friendly and welcoming. Coco Cay truly is The Perfect Day . We cannot wait to go back again and again !

The experience was one I will do again. 4 days is a perfect stay time. Plenty of time to enjoy the ship and the excursions.

Service fair, food was terrible, nothing to do for older people on shore at coco cay.

On boarding and off boarding was incredibly simple, as long as you have passports. The free dining buffet area is a zoo. Nice gym, nice pools.

Overall everything went well. Sometimes things happen. They satisfied are problem. I will go on Royal Caribbean again. Drink packages are costly, should have more promotions. We did have a great time !!!

Had to hunt down some of the pre cruise purchases I made but overall experience was good. Felt there were many hidden fees. Wouldn't be a big deal if it was made known up front
