Royal Princess

10 Night Eastern Caribbean Voyager (Ft. Lauderdale Roundtrip)

Sail date: October 27, 2016

Ship: Royal Princess

Cabin type: Balcony

Cabin number: E733

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Review summary

The food on the Royal Princess was exceptional--Any dining venue was above expectation.   The drinks are fairly priced ( most under $10 ) and well prepared

However DO NOT book and aft suite--The soot from the smokestack was all over our balcony twice. Really prevented us from totally enjoy it

Also be aware of the noise from the Vista lounge below.

Overall I would recommend this cruise

Ship tip

On this ship if you are aft you need to take elevators to Deck 7, walk to front or midship then go back down again! Annoying. Great organization on getting on/off ship at ports.

Bummer about the aft suite.  Some people swear by them, but also understand that this can happen sometimes.
