Review summary

I know it's no fault of Royal Caribbean. But was disappointed we couldn't get to the ports that we booked. And as far as Dominican Republic which replaced one of our ports that has a lot of work to be done. Not a huge fan of the Dominican Republic

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Terrible place to get on a cruise ship. The staff there at port Everglades very rude disrespectful untrained and slow as all get-out. Went out of port Canaveral in October that Port has their stuff together. Going out of Tampa in March hopefully it's nothing like Port Everglades.

Playmakers℠ Sports Bar & Arcade

Was not impressed. Don't think they understand the concept of a sports bar. They have TVs to watch the games and all but they also have too many kids sitting in the chairs and at the bar so you can't get a seat.

Wish I had a picture to share plenty of room it was at the front of the ship oversized window to see out the front it was a great room would definitely get that room again

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Face recognition is the way to go least I can say disembarkment was a little better than the embarkment process
