Review summary

Being Disney Cruisers we wanted to try other cruiseines to compare. This beat our expectations for service and value. Would definitely do again!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very quick, got there early and was able to get through security very quickly. Bags were taken care of and boarding was smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All three specialty restaurants were great but Giovanni’s was our favorite. Main dining was very good and service was outstanding. Wasn’t a big fan of the buffet. Seemed lesser quality and main purpose was for families with kids to get a quick meal.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I sucked at the flowrider but it was awesome, had some sore feet though with scrapes and bruises for some reason, but worth it. Did try the rock climbing but couldn’t make it to the top, next time.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The cruise director was very good, nightly performances were good but the Quest adult scavenger hunt is a must if you are not easily offended!

Children's Programs

Didn’t bring kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Been on Disney cruise ships where service is spectacular, but this cruise beat my expectations with service. Our main dining staff was exceptional and housekeeping was good, still got towel animals which I wasn’t expecting:)

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Loved the Promenade, reminded me of a small Vegas strip(kinda). Ship was well laid out and clean. Hated the smoking areas though. Deck 11 close to the pool with all the kids, smoke would drift over to a good portion of the pool and loungers. Bars were plentiful and people would constantly come around asking if you needed more to drink :), definitely easy to meet you drink package break even point.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Bed was horrible, slept on rocks softer than that bed. But the size was good and room was clean.

Ship tip

Try the specialty restaurants!

Did the Jeep excursion. Beautiful county and the people were extremely nice to us!

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Did the Fury catamaran beach/snorkel excursion. Great reef to snorkel in and the beach was quiet and clean. Shops close to the port were nice also.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quicker than expected no issues.

Great review; we too started as Disney cruisers (excellent product) but just found it harder and harder to justify the cost. Been 20 plus cruises now with Royal and have never looked back.

I went on Disney cruise and felt overpriced and now I’m a devoted royal Caribbean cruiser
