Smooth, quick, and worry free

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food on the ship in general was excellent! We didn't use any of the specialty restaurants. Main dining room and buffet were both excellent, with good variety, excellent quality.

Shows were ok. I've seen better on other RCCL ships.

Service and Staff

The crew on this ship were professional, courteous, and very positive! Great experience!. Our room steward, Nasiry was especially good, and should be singled out.

Ship Quality

Layout of the ship was good. The crew endeavored, successfully, to keep it in tip top shape throughout the week. Well done!

Nasiry kept our room as clean and neat as a pin!
