Review summary

We have cruised several times before so my expectations were high especially since this was Royal Caribbean. I was a little disappointed as far as pool activities. There were 3 couples in our party and somehow our dinner table was messed up the first night. The second night we talked to the Head Waiter and he seemed very irritated but we did end up getting a table together. All in all we did have a good time and the ports were all good. I do think we will choose another cruise line for our next trip.

All was good. Nothing was over the top amazing as far as food.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

We are very active people so I think Carnival has a better variety of activities. Comparing Carnival to this Royal Caribbean cruise. We saw the cruise director all of the time on Carnival and had no idea who it was on RC until the 5th night.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

This is the first time we had an interior stateroom. It was just fine. We had all we needed.

Ship tip

If you are looking for fun, games, dancing by the pool this is not the ship for you. It is elegant and very pretty. The piano bar was great and Phil was amazing.

We shopped. Purchased a bed from Cariloha. I am very excited about that. We also went on the horseback riding excursion that included riding in both the jungle and the water. It was an awesome day.

I'm happy over all it was a good cruise for you. Sounds like Carnival will be a better cruise line for you. I've cruised on both Royal Caribbean and Carnival, my all time best cruise ever so far has been on Royal Caribbean. There was so much to do, we never did get a chance to do everything also the food to me is better. I do tend to cruise on Carnival more often because I take alot of weekend cruises and living in a port city its really easy and cheap.

Oh I'm glad it wasn't just me. I was honestly surprised. I expected it to be much more fun.

We felt the same way. We thought Royal Caribbean LOS was boring and like Carnival and NCL so much better.
