Review summary

There were several issues with this boat Brown water a fried hair dryer issue the room attendant had very bad body odor there was not enough room to sit in the Windjammer the chairs were extremely heavy in the Windjammer our stateroom had stains all over the sofa and the beds were very old the only thing that we can say good about this was a table for 15 in the main dining room was absolutely wonderful staff we probably will not go on Royal Caribbean for a long time to come

I was on the same sailing. And I have to agree about the food in Windjammer: It was not very good. Dining room food was so much better. My last cruise before that was in 2015 on RCL Jewel and I'm sure the food on that ship's Windjammer was better at the time.

I was just on this ship. Great cruise. My cabin steward went way beyond what he he needed to. Only time I had trouble getting a seat in the windjammer was at peak dinning times, just like any other busy restaurant. Sorry you had a bad cruise. I had a great one.

I wouldn't expect these conditions especially they just upgraded this ship.

Loved Cococay.

Low buck, spur of the moment trip, BEWARE OF THE FINAL BILLING PRACTICES!

Wonderful cruise
