Next cruise I will go on a smaller ship and hope that things will be better but I thing that all of RC fleet have done the revamp of the main dining room so maybe it won't be any better.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Didn't like the Main Dining room, most of the food was subpar. Same things were on the menu a few nights. Went to the Windjammer and the same things were served as was served in the main dining room. RC should never have changed their menu. We did not go to any specialty restaurants.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Most of the music venues were tucked away like the Music Hall. Tried to go to Aqua 80 6 times and it was canceled each time due to the ship being unstable. You would think that they would be able to do something to to fix that.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Only tried to go to the Aqua 80. Musicians and DJ's in the Promenada were good if not a little too loud at times. 70's Party was fantastic as was the parade.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff couldn't do enough for you, always smiling and asking if you needed anything or wishing you a great day. When we came back from Coco Cay all staff we encountered asked how our day went. Staff was the best part of the cruise.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The ship is too big to my liking, there was too much walking to suit me but I'm 76 so for a younger person this might not be the case. The ship was very clean and there was always staff walking around cleaning some area, sweeping up anything that got dropped or mopping up spills. I did notice that people were not very aware or just didn't care of messes their children made.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
We had a ocean view balcony and it was small. We went on the Anthum 4 years a go and the cabin was a bit bigger as was the bathroom. The cabin was very clean and the bed was comfortable. I wish it was a little larger.
Ship tip
Make sure you get a cabin in the middle of the ship so you don't have to walk too far to get to where you want to go.
This was the best part of the trip! We had so much fun on the beaches and in the pool. Never any problems finding a chair and the food was great. Just wish the trams would have taken you to the ship instead of dropping you off at the end of the walkway.
Went to Blue Lagoon. The ferry ride over was nice got to see some beautiful homes and boats. Blue Lagoon itself was nothing but a money grab. Paid over $150 for a few hours, hard to find chairs in the shade. Family paid to do the dolphon excursion which was very expensive and when they came out to go eat lunch they found out that is would cost $33 above the price of the excursion for one person so they went back to the ship. We got lunch included in our ticket and it was very disappointing. I had a cheeseburger which consisted of a roll with a slice of cheese slapped on it (not melted) and a burger that was more like a hockey puck, hard and dry also a watered down glass of lemonade. Oh and we paid $4 for a bottle of water!! The DJ on the island had the volume up so loud you couldn't talk to anyone without shouting.
