Review summary

Short cruise to get away & talk about last year’s business, while making plans for this year.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Had my Set Sail Pass saved on my Apple Wallet. They scanned it, looked at my passport card & sent me on my way. It took less than a minute.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The new Bamboo Lounge is where it’s at! Our bartender, Svetlana, put up with all our bad jokes, needy drink orders & just hung out with us at the bar while introducing us to new drinks. I took home some interesting drink cups that came with some of the drinks. Souvenirs for the kids.

Café Promenade

4 out of 5

Great for getting a quick slice for snack between meals. Not just pepperoni & cheese. Randomly had Hawaiian Barbecue pizza, Buffalo Chicken pizza, etc.

Schooner Bar

One of my favorite places to hang out on any RC ship. Good drinks & great piano tunes.

Onboard Activities

Decided to get all my long hair cut off. I just got tired of it. This is the 2nd time I’ve gotten the Men’s Haircut & Style on a RC ship. Both times, I’ve looked awesome at the end. I had hair down to my shoulders when I went in. Got it cut down to maybe an inch on top & shorter on the sides. Girl in the day spa did an amazing job. I felt bad for all the hair on the floor. Even offered to help sweep up. 😆

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Plenty to do on this short cruise. The ice show was amazing. The boat was rocking pretty hard because of the wing, and the skater from Germany was STILL doing backflips. I still wish they would’ve had Star Wars trivia.

Amazing show!

Service and Staff

I’ve never had bad service aboard RCCL & the same went for this one. Friendly crew, quick service & a clean ship.
