First time with RCL and it was great but mostly due to suite amenities. If I'd stayed in regular room would not have been any different than Carnival.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
MDR difficult time cooking some food as requested. Steaks and lobster were overcooked and chewy. Didnt eat at Specialty Restaurants. Buffett was buffet... Omelet/egg station was horrible. It was very slow and always crowded which affected flow of buffett lines/space.
Onboard Activities

Loved the Solarium. Absolutely loved the Suite Lounge. Free drinks and snacks every day plus 24 hr access so we always had a meeting point for our group to take great pics without crowds. Also had it's own deck space to watch slides and rock climbing.
Entertainment

Service and Staff

Free Room Service for Suite Lounge was EVERYTHING! We used it alot bc seemed like buffet was always closed and pizzas run out everytime we wanted a snack. Little upset that room steward only made one towel animal even though we were using three beds. Other than that he was friendly and fantastic.

First time in suite and loved it. Fit four very comfortably. Sofa bed just as comfortable as regular bed. Loved steward had it ready every nite. Loved 2 bathrooms and 2 vanities with 4 women! Balcony was incredible. I can never have a regular room again.
Sat on beach and did nothing! Loved the food was complimentary. Loved the quiet and no crowds! Other half of group went to pool which was fun and dancing and they loved it. Really has a space for all personalities/needs.
We went on winery tour. Def recommend but didnt book thru RCL bc too early. Who wants to drink wine at 9am?? We booked thru Graycliff and went at 11:15 and had plenty of time to shop in straw market still. Came home with 2 bottles of wine. Well worth the $$
