Overall for my first cruise I was very pleased. The experience was like no other vacation and I would absolutely plan another cruise. Royal Caribbean is top notch and would absolutely love to cruise with them again.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
The lines were long, but moved fairly quickly. The staff was amazing in making sure that everyone had the proper papers to make for a smooth transistion.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
I was so very pleased with the Main Dining Room. The service alone was beyond exceptional. The food was always amazing. My biggest upset was that we purchased the Unlimited Dining Package, then we couldn't make reservations at the specialty dining places because they were always booked.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
The pools were always very nice. The whirlpools were amazing- with the exception of the fact that even with signs posted about no one under 16 in them- they were dominated by children. No one seemed to enforce the rules- therefore the adults couldn't enjoy them as much.
Entertainment
We didn't attend any shows.
Children's Programs
Don't have children under the age of 15.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff. What can I say? The most caring and compassionate people on that ship! The room attendant was so kind and sweet. Our waitstaff on the smoking deck was my favorite! Maria & Julie were so sweet, funny and super on task with drinks and whatever else we needed.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
It was very easy to find your way around the ship for as large as it was. The staff was always wiping things down and making sure everything was sparkly clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The size was perfect. The cleanliness was impeccable. The bed was hard! Unfortunately we were a little surprised at how hard the mattress was on the bed. Almost felt like I was sleeping on a board or the floor.
Ship tip
Get the drink package! Skip the Unlimited Dining package. The Main Dining room and the other included dining venues are all that you really need. The food was always fantastic and the service was always spectacular!
20/10 !I highly recommend making your way to this island. The beaches are beautiful. We stayed on the Chill Island side and rented snorkel equipment. The water was clean and clear and amazing. Lunch on the island is included and was fantastic!
Cool island. Little overwhelming if you take the water taxi to the other side and are bombarded by the locals upon entrance to the island. Be prepared to have 100 people ask if you need a ride or want to sell you something. The shopping on the island is great and the local food is quite wonderful.
