We had a lot of fun on this cruise despite overall quality being lower than expected. Amenities were under the standards Royal Caribbean boasts but the cruise director's staff and wait staff around the ship made this trip very memorable. Hott Sandz Band was also really wonderful.

Men need to wear slacks & shoes every night to Main Dining Room. Don’t be afraid to ask for something because everyone went above and beyond to make it a memorable cruise!

If u r wanting quiet outaide on the 2 sides to the solarium there are sliding glass doors that lead out to a peaceful deck of maybe 10 lounge chairs. Also quiet top deck by shuffle board. If u want a quiet breakfast with made to order omelets and a small buffet you can go to MDR and eat there without the pushiness from buffet area. And yes u can get eggs benedict there. Line up when they dopen less of a wait time. Quick breakfast at park cafe they have egg sandwiches if u need to eat and head to excursion.

it was ok.... it was smaller than what we were used to, you could feel more movement and a lot of engine noise.

The Viking Crown Lounge is a great quiet place by day - can enjoy the pool view and music without it blasting you and it's smoke free.

Take advantage of booking your next cruise while on the ship. We saved over $1200 on our next cruise by booking it while on the ship and you can choose any of the Royal Caribbean ships and any destination.

Nice, smaller ship that needs more pool space. Teenagers were limited to ping-pong, rock wall had very limited hours.

If you are traveling with kids, travel with friends, otherwise you run the risk of there not being anyone around your kids age to play with. This ship was 75% senior citizens, and I would say 15% couples w/o kids, so my 11 year old was playing in groups with 6 year olds :(

Not a ship to take your teens. But if you want relaxing without a lot of frills or activities, this ship is fine for you.

This is not a huge boat with lots of sporting activities. It’s aboit 2k passengers versus the 5k passengers on mega ships. It’s more about relaxing which was fine for us. Not a lot of kids so great for couples and those trying to get away from the child crowd.

This was an absolute wonderful cruise for relaxing. There is entertainment if you want something to do, but there’s also so many places you can go to get some peace and quiet and relax. The service was outstanding, and the only thing that could have made this trip any better would have been better food overall. If I could do it again, all on the same ship, I would book it in a heartbeat. It was wonderful. I loved that we weren’t bombarded with people trying to sell us alcohol, and we didn’t encounter obnoxious drunk people. There were minimal kids, and just enough to keep it interesting. Royal caribbean is great, and I would reccomend them to all my friends!
