Review summary

Great experience with RCI. I will definitely cruise with them again - the staff took such good care of us and by the end of our cruise, we felt like family!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Good; easy to get to the right place, easy to park. We had trouble due to covid protocols, but they shouldn't be an issue any longer.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The buffet was terrific - when it was open. Everyone in our large group (7) could find things they wanted. The buffet and room were well cared for and lots of staff to help. They also had a nice variety of food, in addition to some staples. We ate at the main dining room nightly and tremendously enjoyed the white linen service, the variety and the exceptional wait staff.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We enjoyed the shows - Saturday Night Live, the comedian and more. My adult kids loved the ice skating show - tickets are hard to get.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
We enjoyed the stage shows. We didn't do much in the bars so I can't really speak to the djs.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone was so happy and happy to help us. Even when we were in the elevators with staff, they went out of their way to be friendly and chatty. We loved the staff! Our dinner staff were exceptional - very attentive. The staff working in the buffet were also exceptional/

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was a nice cabin We had a bed for 2 and then the bunk beds for our two kiddos. The bed was very comfy. We loved the size of the window.

Ship tip

Find out when the buffet is open and where you will eat based on the needs of your family. When we arrived on board, we found out the buffet was closed from 330 - 6 and it was 430 and we were hungry.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
No excursion as we live in the Houston area. For us, easy to get to and easy to park, knowing our car was going to be safe.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We went on a jeep tour and had a GREAT experience.

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Not our favorite - nothing really impressed us, including the excursion we went on that was intended to give a tour of George Town.

Falmouth, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Our group agreed that out of all the ports, this is the place we would like to come back and visit the most. Our excursion was not great, although it did give us a good enough sense of Jamaica to know we want to return.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Much smoother than other cruises I've been on.
