Review summary
Wonderful! This was a special cruise for mother-in-law started with a 2 bedroom 2 bath cabin. Lucky to Royalup the experience to an Aqua Theater 2 bedroom/2 bath suite. Had a massage while in Port Canaveral, a shaded bed in Cococay and trip to Pearl Island in Nassau. Weather was great, a spot of rain (nice change) and mostly smooth seas. Having a Genie (Allan) was...WOW.... Magical! He scheduled our specialty dining, both on the balcony & in the restaurants. He reserved the best seats in the house for entertainment (it was a if the performers were singing and performing TO us!) Drinks were always in our hands, treats always waiting... a very truly special experience.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Giovanni's Table
Ordered this for room service, very good deserts. Eggplant was excellent, husband tried the octopus which was recommended by others, he fully agreed it was great!
Chop's Grille
Food was very good, husband had the lobster (already shelled and displayed on the open tail halves, he missed the fun of cracking it)They accommodate vegetarians by beginning me the vegi options from 150 Broadway and eggplant from Giovannis.
Windjammer Cafe
I could get my over ready eggs here.
Portside BBQ
Both my mother-in-law & hubby adored this menu!!!
Bionic Bar®by Mark Shakr
Thoroughly entertaining.
El Loco Fresh℠
This needed tofu options
Playmakers℠ Sports Bar & Arcade
Hubby & mom loved the wings, the nachos & onion rings. I ordered the truffle burger with the Impossible Burger twice!... it was that good!
Boardwalk Dog House
The family liked but they need a "Smart Dog" so we vegetarians can enjoy with them.
Coastal Kitchen
Spectacular views. Limited vegetarian options.
Starbucks
They remembered me everyday! Great staff!
Izumi Hibachi & Sushi
Hibachi was our favorite! Vegetarian- loved the tofu & noodles option. Be sure to get them to fry the rice super crunch - awesome!
Rising Tide Bar
Fun experience!
Blaze
Great comedians, they controlled any controversial comments so no one was turned off from the performance.
Candy Beach
Great selection, the cream was nice change.
Onboard Activities
Ultimate Abyss℠
It was good, quick, but not great for adults. Kids would thoroughly enjoy this though. At least we can say we finally did this, don't do if you don't like tight places.
Casino Royale
Very good, slots had more variety than other ships. However, hardly heard about big payouts on this ship compared to others so we stopped trying so hard.
Royal Escape Room – Apollo 18: Lunar Landing
This was wonderful! Finished with 58 secs to go!
Diamond Club
Never had anything to offer when we stopped by. Quiet otherwise.
Day Spa and Fitness Center
Lovely experience, tired of the product hard sell at the end of the massages.
Suite Lounge
Amazing views, wonderful staff!
Carousel
Even grandma loved the nostalgia of this
Center Ice Rink
Spectacular ice show!
Entertainment
Theater
Awesome, spaced safely, great views.
AquaTheater
OMG, amazing performances and diverse skills of these athletes: divers, synchronized swimmers, gymnasts, all!

Ship tip
My husband and i love this ship. However, consider your location of your cabin if you travel with the elderly; it's difficult for the older folks to get around. While we went from the regular 2 bedroom to the aqua 2 bedroom, the added distance for a 79 year old woman with a cane was very difficult. We should have stayed with the regular 2 bedroom by the elevator for her convenience.
