Royal Caribbean's people MADE our trip AMAZING! We WOULDN'T have made it without them!

So, Nice! The staff that does the transport on and off ship for wheelchair assist were so amazing as well, while I didn't get their names for on or off ship sadly, but, they are ALL AMAZING and I hope that Royal Appreciates them!

I have to say that I was so pleased with all the amazing food we tried, it was nice to see such unique options and I got to sample things I have never tried and I loved their buffet and how it was setup to be easy for us! One of my favorite places to go was the Cafe Promenade and Margarita was our savor constantly with fresh coffee anytime we saw her and she would go out of her way to help us carry out our drinks and treats to a table and she was the smiling face that was just ALWAYS there for us! This food was the best for when you wanted just a little bite of something I appreciated them as they were open 24 hours a day and I being a night owl appreciated being able to get a bite anytime. Their coconut cookies were to die for and I have to say in the buffet the desserts were not just visually appealing, but, some of the BEST things I put in my mouth before. I liked so much that you have no sugar added options available as well. WONDERFUL experience!

We enjoyed watching the North Star going up and seeing people's reaction to it, sadly the one issue I have is that their isn't a way for a scooter guest to get to it to enjoy it, hope they will consider making it accessible at some point in the future, my mom was so disappointed, being on oxygen it just wouldn't be possible for her to safely take all those stairs to ride it. Sadly, I exceed the weight limit, it would be nice if they could offer a smaller load of guests to allow for someone who is over the limit to still enjoy the attraction, I would have loved getting those amazing pictures and looking out over the ocean or even Coco Cay from there.

All of the live music we enjoyed on ship was amazing and really made the who experience fun. I especially enjoyed Casey at Captain Jack's on Perfect Day at Coco Cay, so funny and love all the songs it was a moment to sing along with him and it made my day!

This was an all adult event for our trip.

Last week I went on the inaugural sailing of Royal Caribbean's Odyssey of the Seas and it was an AMAZING experience not just for the beauty of the things on the ship but, the AMAZING people that make it a true experience. I am disabled and we have issues pre-booking a room that would fit my mom's scooter and my push walker, so when we were struggling getting in our room Asep and Joanne Cotterman went SO far above and beyond in getting us a new room that was full accessible which enhanced our enjoyment of the room and the balcony as a whole. Not only that Joanne was checking in through the whole trip with us even when we were at Coco Cay we ran into her and she was just amazing and worked towards making our trip outstanding. Mohammad at Guest Services was able to get us the room we needed and it wasn't easy, but, he made it happen and even assisted in getting us wheelchair assist to disembark setup with a smile at every turn. While in Perfect Day at Coco Cay we had another guardian angel Assata (hope I am spelling this right) She was so helpful in letting us know what to do and how to enjoy our day and even got us a bottle of water and found us a comfortable place to sit and plan out our day! So, much love for Royal Caribbean's people and service. We had another recurring person who was always working on making sure that we always had what we need Regan and he was in the El Loco Taco poolside, and waited on us in a few places and came to say his good byes to us when we were in the casino! One of my favorite places to go was the Cafe Promenade and Margarita was our savor constantly with fresh coffee anytime we saw her and she would go out of her way to help us carry out our drinks and treats to a table and she was the smiling face that was just ALWAYS there for us! So many great people, casino wait staff and service people were amazing and looked over me to be sure that I was safe in getting around and that I was well attended to for drinks! I work at World Travel Holding Inc, and this was my FIRST time going on Royal Caribbean before and I promise to make future trips with them just because they are amazing at taking care of you and making your trip NEXT LEVEL! LOVED Perfect Day at Coco Cay, the saltwater lagoon was perfect for us as we are both disabled it was the safest place for us to swim, but, as a critique I would love to see one area on the beach that is lined with planks or a handrail that takes you to the edge, the sand combined with the somewhat steep entrance and exit would be enhanced for everyone but, especially for those of us who aren't really surefooted, but, we did have fun and made it work. Coming out I had a small issue, it started raining, not shocked it is tropical, but, the accessible tram arrived fairly quickly and everyone was so focused on me being safe entering it and then as we went forward unfortunately the vehicle broke, most likely due the weather I imagine, but, it wouldn't move forward, things happen, but, then we backed up to the tram stop again and had to be offloaded, by this time it is REALLY storming and the covered area really doesn't protect you from rain more sun, but, overall the process of getting back off and waiting for another tram was about an hour ordeal and it happens, but, Akeem who was loading guests at the stop, saw how cold I was getting as I was drenched and he offered me his yellow slicker, I told him I couldn't get any more wet, but, I truly appreciated that he would offer that to me knowing how much longer he had to be out there. So, Nice! The staff that does the transport on and off ship for wheelchair assist were so amazing as well, while I didn't get their names for on or off ship sadly, but, they are ALL AMAZING and I hope that Royal Appreciates them! I will say that this isn't on Royal Caribbean, but, they should know about this the taxi handlers, said well we don't' have any accessible taxis and didn't make any effort to see if they could call any for us, we parked at Terminal 19 parking garage and were so confused as I don't remember being told WHERE to park, but, when we arrived we were trying to walk to Terminal 18, but, had no idea how far away that was, we had people stop and offer to find someone to help and then someone that worked at the port, beautiful soul whose name I didn't get she worked at the port for sure, but, she loaded me in her vehicle and took me to the terminal and came back to show my mom where to drive to on her scooter till she knew we were safely where we need to be to check in. Thanks good! But, even on the way out the Port officer was so kind and said I can make sure to get you a taxi that can take you today to the terminal 19 lot when we left and that was so helpful, he took us to the elevators as his taxi wouldn't fit higher, but, he was amazing, so we tipped him Big! In closing, so many names I have missed for sure, but, EVERYONE was amazing and I love Royal Caribbean for how much effort they put into making us comfortable and making our experience not only fun but, easy for us all! If this is a reflection of how all their staff are then we will be back! Asep was the most caring room attendent we ever experienced and it was sad to change rooms because we never even met the new room attendent but, our room was cleaned and cared for when we were out. But, our balcony was BEAUTIFUL and I am smitten with balconies now I have never had one before! I will be doing a video for my Local LOVE YouTube Channel as well and I can't wait to share it. If there could be 10 stars they would have gotten that from me and my MOM, thanks so much!

This ship is new so as you can imagine it was just amazing and the whole thing is floating art really! Every corner of the ship was dramatic and the staff kept it all spic and span and were always cleaning to keep us safe and reminding us to wash our hands and use the sanitizer that was well placed throughout the ship.

This room was massive, we were trying to use cabin 12542 originally and mom is on a scooter and I have a rolling walker and it wasn't working out so Asep along with Joanne Cottorman we were moved to an accessible cabin, we tried before we boarded to get that, but, wasn't given much help with it. But, these two did an amazing job. So, Joanne Cottorman worked with Guest Services Mohammad and they got me upgraded to 9666 accessible cabin and it changed our whole trip to OUTSTANDING, we were able to relax and not fight to get the scooter in each time, the doors are automatic and it was giant and had a place to even be on your scooter on the balcony and we just absolutely enjoyed it. My mom is going to be 72 in March, fingers crossed, but, she really couldn't say enough good things about Asep, Joanne Cottorman and Mohammad

The staff that does the transport on and off ship for wheelchair assist were so amazing as well, while I didn't get their names for on or off ship sadly, but, they are ALL AMAZING and I hope that Royal Appreciates them! When I was boarding the I was planning on walking it with my rolling walker, but, they wouldn't take no for an answer and insisted in talking me by wheelchair and pushing my stroller that was full of all our luggage, they were so nice and got us on ship and too our room amazingly
