Review summary

The 4 day cruise was short but enjoyable there was plenty of drinking but it was not obnoxious. Overall a great short cruise on a nice clean ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
hardly had to slow down at all

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the MDR even though I do believe since the specialty restaurants have become a thing the food selection has decreased.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
we really people watched for the most part and enjoyed the Halloween parade. Enjoyed finding and spending so time on the heli pad (great views)

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The entertainment was good the ice show was better than good and the comedian during his adult show was funny(he was held back too much during PG show) The juggler was a juggler.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I believe RCCL has the best trained and most friendly staff at sea.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
We thought the ship was well laid out, except we wish there were a bar at the aft near the flow rider there is no better view to have an early evening cocktail than watching the water churned up by props.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
the location was good I Komang Darmanta kept it clean and entertained us with towel animals each night the cabin was slightly smaller than other inside cabins we've had.

Ship tip

locate the Heli pad forward deck 4 and get some king of the world photos

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

We live in Fl. and drove to terminal that morning

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
we didn't do the thrill park side however, Chill beach had plenty of umbrellas and we shade trees we walked to the pool and other beaches and they all were clean and people having fun

Nassau, Bahamas

2 out of 5
I would avoid Nassau if I had my druthers but it seems to be a stop on most Caribbean cruises. We took the Pearl Island excursion and were very disappointed, the island needs lots of TLC and it's not just recent hurricanes.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
with facial recognition you barely have to stop, great job.

Sometime I think about a short cruise but if we have to fly to get to port for where we want to go I feel like I want to make it worth it. Glad you enjoyed, might try out of Long Beach as we can drive to port in a couple hours.
