Review summary

Great lower cost cruise due to the age of the ship but still a great experience. I would cruise this ship again for sure. The only criticism I have is Roatan. Not much to see there.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

smooth and organized.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

I don't really like the MDR experience and rarely eat there. Packed in with tables so close. Slow service no matter what ship. Buffet is ordinary but that is what a buffet is supposed to be. Specialty restaurants 150 Central Park and Solarium Bistro were very good and highly recommended.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Lots to do.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Cats was OK but outdated. More magic shows and acrobatic shows needed.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Always excellent on Royal.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Staff can often be seen wiping down rails and dusting.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Basic balcony cabin on a cruise ship.

Ship tip

Portside BBQ is unique on this ship and the food was excellent. Royal should add this to other ships.
