Mariner of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

My girlfriend and I were on this cruise. It was out first cruise ever and we both enjoyed it. I highly suggest the balcony room. One of the best parts was getting room service in the morning and then setting on the balcony drinking our morning tea or coffee. There was really only three things that were bad. 1 The drink selection is pretty small. Coffee, hot tea, soda, maybe ice tea and that about it.

the nice things are comp. teas and coffee all the time.

The ship offered a lot of entertainment options. Whether rock climbing, swimming, fitness center, spa, lounges, enrichment lectures, cuisine, or shows, there was something that would appeal to anyone, regardless of ethnicity or nationality. The boat was easy to navigate, and everything felt close. The staff was friendly, and my fellow traveling companions were fantastic.

The ship was very nice. You would never know there were over 3,000 passengers on board. Main dining was excellent. The Promende rooms were a fun change. The inside window came with a built in sofa for extra seating and room in the cabin.

Our recent honeymoon cruise was made more special by the staff and crew of The Mariner of the Seas as well as the accommodations. The ship was beautiful, with the replica dining room from the Titanic, the nice shops and eateries of the Royal Promenade and the guest support staff. Everyone there made our trip more enjoyable.

Ship was dirty, food was poor, entertainment dismal, excursions crew knew nothing about anything and the excursions were really bad.

ship was great and the shore excursions wonderful

The ship was always clean and the crew was very friendly. We met the captain also. Very happy with this particular cruise.

The cruise was alright. We had a good tim in all the ports of call. We knew from reading other reviews the dining would not be stellar, but knew that the ports would be excellent. We experienced issues with the Internet service offered by the ship since it was difficult to access, spotty reception and unreliable. The ship size was good for the number of people onboard and we loved our stateroom. The tv accessible billing was confusing but was correct when we received our final bill. We opted for My Time dining which was a good option for us since we generally eat dinner between 8:00 and 9:00. Being presented with bills needing a signature mid-way through dinner for a bottle of wine or a cocktail seemed odd. The sattelite service for the TV was out for the entire cruise and we were told it had been out since January. The staff for the most part was very friendly but it only takes one bad experience to ruin your entire opinion.

We have been on the Mariner before in the Caribbean, and since we did have so many days at sea, it was nice to have a larger ship with lots of things to do. But even with that 30 days is a long time especially when half of them are at sea. But the size of the ship mitigated this to some extent

As always, Royal Caribbean ships are beautifully built and furnished. The crew was extremely helpful and friendly. Facilities clean and well-maintained.

This was my second Royal Caribbean cruise and I would rate them both as excellent. Everything was well organized from the check in procedure to the off loading. I take a cruise to relax - to be treated like a princess and to sit in the sun and read. I was able to do all three on this cruise. The staff is amazing -right down to the maintenance staff - everyone was friendly, professional and helped make my cruise experience a joy.

it was nice, big and had lots of things to do.

We enjoyed our vacation on the Mariner of the Sea! Our plan was to be able to relax and we were definitely able to do that. The dining experiences were wonderful with great cordial staff members. Our evening dining was awesome with My Time Dining! Our waiters were kind, caring and met our needs! We met several couples during the My Time Dining and enjoyed their company frequently throughout our cruise. We had a Balcony room which was awesome to enjoy both day and night. The 7 days of cruising were just what we needed.

Good service, good people Most crew understandable

Had confirmed dinner seating for 6:00. Ship changed it to 8:30. They stated it was because we booked with agent. Afforded no help to chsnge.

The ship was beautiful, very clean and our cabin, a balcony was extra nice

The ship itself is very clean and well maintained. Public areas were immaculate and well kept.

This was a great trip for cruise virgins. The ship is big enough to have many options but not so huge that we got lost trying to fiind it all. Royal Caribbean really knows how to cater to their customers.

This is the first cruise with Royal Carribean. I was very disappointed. The food in the formal dining room was also available at the buffet and for room service. If you wanted to order a filet mignon there was an additional charge of $15. A steak and lobster meal was never offered at the formal dining room. I also noticed the employees on their cellular phones while cleaning rooms or just walking around. On other cruises the stateroom cleaners would call you by your name, on this cruise they never did.
