Had a good time but RCCL did not live up to their reputation.
Embarkation
2 out of 5
The Tampa port is very chaotic. Lines crisscross and guests traveling suites constantly have to cut through other lines.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Would have been poor except for the phenomenal Chef's Table. Dining room food was slightly below average and the buffet was not so fresh. Do not miss the roast beef sandwiches hidden away at the Park Cafe.
Chef's Table
5 out of 5
Absolutely worth every penny. Book after departure and price goes from $85 to $45.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Only one pool but they change the water each night so it was very clean. The night life didn't started at midnight leaving a two hour gap.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
DJ at the pool was great. Stage show was amateur at best.
Children's Programs
No children with us.

Asst Waiter--5 stars
Pool Servers--2 stars
Waiter dawned over other couple at our table and ignored us. They spoke his language and we did not. Brought them extra shrimp and lobster but served us the wrong entree.
Pool area full of dirty dishes and glasses. Need more people picking up.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Great cabin and location. Hallway had occasional sewer smell but never in the room.
Took an excursion straight from ship to Rendezvous Cay. Never have we seen anything so beautiful. Felt like we were in a travel magazine. Great snorkeling.
Delayed due to broken escalators and elevators in the port. Security guard screaming a people to get against the wall using threats. It was ridiculous. Port personnel sheepishly apologized for the way Govt personnel were acting.
