Serenade of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

We really enjoyed our trip. It was fun, safe, interesting and economical.

1. Very Smokey 2. 3rd floor smelled like sewer did not notice it on upper floors

Beautiful ship. Had all of the amenities and entertainment we wanted. Food was excellent and plentiful. Customer service was impeccable.

the ship was spotless at all times, everyone was fantastic, we had such a great time and as soon as we docked the last day, my husband and I were already planning our next trip.

Excellent. It is a wondership ship. No complaints at all.

After having cruised on the Enchantment in 2009, a ship in unsavory condition complete with roaches on the buffet counter, I was hesitant to book another RC cruise. However, this particular cruise on the Serenade fit my schedule and visited ports that I like. The Serenade was certainly far and above cleaner, friendlier, less cluttered, and in better condition. Why, however, does the ship leave a port at 5:00 pm when its next destination is so close? I believe it's to get people back on board to buy beverages, shop, and utlilize the casino. I'd much rather spend time in port perhaps enjoying an evening excursion rather than hustling back to the ship by 4:30 pm.

The ship was on the smaller side, but there was still plenty to do. The pool and upper decks got very crowded during the at sea day, so make sure to get up early if you want a spot at the pool. The crew was very friendly and helpful. The Cruise Director, Marc Walker, was amazingly funny and made the week fun and entertaining. Sadly, he's moving to the Monarch of the Seas ship in May 2012. The food quality in the dining room was excellent and the wait staff was superb. We got a free voucher for two to go to a specialty restaurant for booking with CheapTickets.com. We chose to go to Chops Grille and the choice was fantastic. The filet was excellent quality and very good. The wait staff was top notch at the restaurant. I would definitely spend the money to go to Chops Grille again. Overall we would cruise on this ship again.

This ship is smaller than the one we went on 2 years ago and it was nice to see familiar faces after going on excursions and to see our room attendant regularly and visit.

The facility was beautiful...hygiene exellent..food great

This was the cruise of a life time. Every port has so much beauty to offer, it was just unbelieveable. We did not purchase any excursions from the cruise line, instead received much cheaper deals at each port and saw the exact same things as those passengers that booked excursions. I HIGHLY recommend this cruise as we were only at sea one day, so every day was a new adventure.

The ship was magnificently kept, with excellent service. The only problem was the television in the room was old, poor quality and needed to be replaced.

very good very very very good

The ship is large and most areas get very crowded during activities. The ship is well appointed and clean. You are charged extra for almost everything. They even offered back stage tours of several areas of the ship for $150.00.

I liked it very much.

We were a family of 10 first-time cruisers and we all loved this ship and the ports. On board, we loved exploring all of the activities, but we know we didn't hit them all. THe cruise director, Mark, was awesome!

Excellent ship service Good ports

This cruise was our 10th anniversary celebration, and we are happy with our choice. This was our 2nd Royal Caribbean cruise, and also our 2nd on a Radiance-class ship. These are beautiful ships! We were extremely pleased with our stateroom (junior suite); it was spacious with lots of storage. The Reflections dining room food was excellent and the wait staff took good care of us. The Windjammer buffet is a bit of a mixed bag, but adequate, fast and convenient when you want to eat quickly and get back to the activities. Entertainment was good, but our main interests were the shore excursions, dining, and the most excellent Champagne Bar!

The ship is extremely clean and in fabulous shape. Not a paint chip or stain to be found! Crew was really friendly - always a greeting, happy to engage in conversation

Lovely ship, excellent dining facilities and food choices every day. I was very happy with the stateroom and the bed was very comfortable.

The ship is beautiful, crew outstanding and itinerary perfect.
