Review summary

I have not had a vacation in a very long time- so I enjoyed the opportunity to get away in a tropical setting. However, on the sea days there was not much to do.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The breakfast Ian’s lunch in the MDR was excellent. Dinner not so much- quality was sub standard.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The ice skating show was excellent. Other shows (comics, RCL singers/dancers) were not appealing.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Not very entertaining.

Children's Programs

No children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Cabin steward and wait staff were helpful, polite and accommodating.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Every area of the ship was clean, we often saw the crew dusting, mopping, vacuuming common areas.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The bed was comfortable, the size of room and balcony was big enough-much larger than expected, plenty of storage, the BR’s are always tiny as expected.

Ship tip

Best to relax, not a lot of activities when at sea

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
No excursion

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

2 out of 5
A beautiful beach, but if you do not like water activities- it’s not a great port. Unfortunately, there are many aggressive locals permitted to sale goods.

Oranjestad, Aruba

3 out of 5
Christmas Day- many shops were closed or closed early.

Willemstad, Curacao

3 out of 5
Near the port very touristy, the city seemed a bit unfriendly. Local tour was not informative, some stops cost additional money

Kralendijk, Bonaire

5 out of 5
The best 2 1/2 tour! Toured north and south of island- excellent, friendly tour guide for only $25!

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Issues with customs- 2 hour delay- RCL did the best to inform and accommodate passengers.
