Review summary

Overall it was a good cruise . We were not a fan of the huge crowds and how everything needs to be done on a schedule… doesn’t feel very relaxing. Not sure we will cruise again or not. I’m glad we had the experience but I prefer a more relaxing vacation.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Delayed because they were working on elevators . Had to sit in terminal for about 40 minutes.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was very good. We were first time cruisers and if I had to do it again, I wouldn’t have bought the dining package. It was kind of stressful having time restrictions for reservations at specialty restaurants. On last 2 days we ended up just going to wind Jammer which was very good and we enjoyed just being able to go whenever we wanted.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
My kids loved Bumper cars, Ifly, and SkyPad . Just FYI the info on app for SkyPad is wrong, kids only need to be 5 to jump! We went on bumper cars and SkyPad every day!

Children's Programs

We thought it was beautiful ship!

Cabin / Stateroom

Junior suite was amazing!!! 2 bathrooms was the best

Ship tip

Don’t book the Casitas if you are wanting one on pool deck. They let the Royal Genie guests pre-reserve the good casitas.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Mr. Sanchos was great! The service was amazing and food and drink were so good!

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We had a cabana at Chill island. Our attendant was so amazing! She brought us food and drinks non-stop! The water was crystal clear and the snorkeling was great. The kids were able to see stingrays and other fish with just a short swim

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

4 out of 5

Disembarkation
