Review summary

I have traveled on several ships. This is the second time in many years that I have been on a RCC line. The Mariner of the Seas was what I expected. The stateroom had ample space for two adults. Loved the shower. On some other cruise lines the bathroom accommodations are very limiting, however, our facilities met our needs. Only concern was the septic smell that lingered in the hallways the last three nights of the cruise. Over all, the cruise was fun and very relaxing.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
We used the dining room mostly; breakfast, most lunches and all dinners. Shrimp was very dissapointing, too water logged. Enjoyed the salad bar during lunch.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Enjoyed most of the shows. The last show, "80's revival" was not very good.

Service and Staff
