Review summary

Disappointed with this cruise line ( Royal Caribbean ) only out to make the most money from there guests, there charges are all in US $ so you add 30% to get the AU$. One bottle beer and a gin and tonic $US22 that is $AU28.80. It goes on and on. The food was mediocre at best in both the buffet and main restaurant sent back three times. The wi-fi is a robbing joke they call it Voom snail comes to mind. Tries three of the specialist restaurants two were very good. Chops and Giovanni

A rubbish dump literally where they disembark the place is littered with tin cans, they charge you $US25 for a fifteen min bus ride to a crap beach.
