Review summary

I love cruising on Royal Caribbean as they are top notch - a class above most ships that sail. Their staff is well trained and very polite and friendly. Food is great. Ship is kept very clean. The entertainment was off the charts - seating in the theater was comfortable and plentiful. I couldn't have asked for a better cruising experience.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room steward was very friendly and kept the room very clean. Size was great for all 3 of us. More storage in the room than was available in the past with cabinets above the bed and an extra closet.

Ship tip

Not necessary for this ship, but for any ship. I strongly recommend a balcony room as you get to see some great sights from it as you enter ports.

Ports of call

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas Did not visit port

This port had to be re-routed to Haiti due to weather conditions.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Smooth. I think they do a great job getting folks off the ship and their luggage as timely as possible with so many leaving the ship at once.

Try Celebrity. We also like Royal Caribbean but Celebrity is our favorite, especially their Edge class ships.
