Review summary

We have sailed RCCL 4 times and this time was pretty disappointing. The meals and service were fantastic, but the cruise compass was constantly wrong and not very well organized. Both theaters had parts go bad that caused cancellations of shows and there was much about the ship that was subpar - it almost seemed as if the ship was too large to keep up with.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Went with family ranging from 10 years old to 70 years old. Family activities were scheduled overtop of each other and there were large amounts of time where no family friendly activities were available. Cruise Director was the least present I have ever seen and did not react well to adversity.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The entertainers were fantastic, unfortunately three shows were cancelled due to technical difficulties.

Service and Staff

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The layout and design were great, but the ship needs maintenance in places, especially the sport court (climbing walls, mini golf, and table tennis). The maintenance was taken care of at strange times - i.e. power sanding the railings during peak running time in the tunnel area of the track; also, pulling pieces out of the ceiling outside the dining facility 10 minutes before the main dining room seating!
