Review summary

We let the ship know that we were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and not one person acknowledge it. We told our travel agent, who put it in our paper work, we told our waiter, we let them know the reason we were going to chops grille was to celebrate our 30th. When we booked they said they would make a note of it. We were very disappointed to say the least. When my husband asked what I would like to do to celebrate our anniversary, your cruise line and ship were my first choice.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
My husband and I love to eat in the main dining room every night, however, i found it difficult 3 nights out of the 7 to find something that liked to eat. My husband was very happy with the choices.

Chop's Grille

5 out of 5

AMAZING!!! The food, the service, the FOOD oh my.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The on board activities were OK. There was not a lot to do later in the evening after the shows,if you didn't drink or want to hang out in the bars or smoky, VERY SMOKY casino.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
CATS was a big bust for us. Major malfunctions, not a great show in general. Comedy shows, hysterical! The dive show fantastic, the ice show grand and the Quest game show...so funny.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Our room steward was outstanding. Our main dining room waiter, not so much. We waited a really long time to be waited on almost every night. We spent a good 2 hours for dinner. Just waiting.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
It was very fast. However, my suitcase was damaged in the process of coming off the ship and i was unaware that i had to file a report at the pier. So my brand new luggage was ruined.

Sorry to hear that. We just came back from celebrating our 20th. I did the anniversary package for our room and our room attendant asked us everyday how our anniversary was going. At dinner the Maitre’d came over the first night asked if we were celebrating anything. There was actually 3 couples at our table with anniversaries and he brought out dessert for each couple and they sung to us. Then each night after he would also ask us how our anniversary was going. Very sorry to hear you didn’t have the same experience. I can imagine your disappointment.

Mtcruisers, your agent probably arranged that for you. How nice! Ours had given us wine/champagne in the past.

So sorry to hear that. Happy Anniversary! Sounds like someone or a few dropped the ball. Hopefully you still enjoyed your cruise.

The same thing happened to me when we sailed both the Indy and the Oasis. Then we sailed the NCL Getaway on my birthday, and not only did the room steward leave me a cup cake that said Happy Birthday in cabin, but they brought us a WHOLE CAKE at desert and sang Happy Birthday!

That is disappointing. We booked on phone through RC, booked Oasis for the first time. The agent said he would have a surprise for us when we got to our room. Boy did we they had a sign on door Bon Voyage with decorations inside the room, was pretty awesome.

It must have been good otherwise to earn 4⭐️ despite not being mollycoddled.

Usually they’ll at least sing happy anniversary with some cake like they do for your birthday

Wow that sucks! How disappointing! We are taking carnival freedom in August we take a cruise every year and we took liberty of the seas which i didn’t enjoy as much as carnival ships.

They don’t give you anything for free, although they should have acknowledged it with a little cake in Chops if you had told Royal Caribbean
