Review summary

Our 39th year anniversary celebration trip and it was terrible!! We upgraded to a junior suite to celebrate the occasion the room smelled like sewage the whole trip and we couldn't go on the balcony without gagging. Spoke to the staff several time and was told they are working on it. Definitely not a good way to celebrate out 39th anniversary. BIG LET DOWN!! One day after returning we both had COVID, may from the raw sewage coming in our room.

Just got off and glad we didn’t smell sewage. Activities seemed to be for all ages to me but I guess it depends on what you’re looking for.

We were on the cruise over New Years. I will agree there was an odor. As for activities we had a great time and we are in our early 60's. I will say RCL does target the younger cruisers. We normally use Celebrity or NCL. Happy Anniversary.

Are you saying you think you got Covid from sewage/the smell of sewage?

There is a big difference between smelling sewage and actually having raw sewage in your room.
