Review summary

My favorite part of the cruise was the buffet and pizza place. The bars were a hit and miss with drinks. Sometimes they were made right and sometimes not. The waiting staff were friendly but the upper management not so much. We had issues with our my time dinning. We had to wait for a table first two night while other families were being served right away. The second night we waited over 45 minutes and it was my wife's birthday and formal night. We ended up going to buffet in formal attire! From the looks of it we were not the only ones. But the front desk made it right by sending us a $3.50 bottle of wine with some dirty glasses! what a joke, we did talk with head waiter and had the table and times figured out but had to switch our original time that we booked months in advance. The pools were always packed and room services was great but seemed to have an issue with finding hair on our sheets a lot. We had the kids in a separate room and it was the same issue on their sheets as well. It was definitely not our hair either! Excursions overly priced but worth it if you didn't want to be ripped off by locals. Overall we had a good time and made the best out of our trip but I don't see myself booking another royal Caribbean cruise anytime soon

Ship tip

Don't tag your bags at the end of trip. Self carry was much faster and easy to do. Unless you don't mind waiting for hours

@cowgirlcory, do your research thru trip advisor. There are many reliable local companies that offer excursions. We had the best time on our excursions booking local.

Sorry you had the trouble! We've got our first cruise scheduled for May, would you mind elaborating on the excursions and being ripped off by locals?
