Review summary

Again Becca was amazing and I am not being paid for this plug as she was great thru this whole process especially since we had to use cruise credits. I would highly recommend to book with.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Royal Caribbean did not give a good address to use when using lyft to get to the correct port. We had to walk back almost 2 miles from port H/G to port A.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food was great and the drink package is expensive, but they did have to take almost 2 years off, but we did drink almost the whole package worth. lol.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Big ship and stuff to do but some things like arcade zip line and the abyss slide not so hot. Pools and flo rider were good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Work in progress here, as most of the shows needed work. A bit out of practice, I guess. Entertainers were not so hot. But the Ice show was amazing.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5

Need more time during the day to do stuff for teens mostly only a night thing starting at 8 pm. but they do get to hang out until 1 am.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff was very good accept if your a key member ( I would probably recommend to not purchase as I don't think it is worth the money) They did not know how to help with embarkation and debark....

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean but also expected as it is a relatively new ship but was in great shape. Especially since they do a turn around the same day to get off the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Very clean, bathroom larger than expected for a ship. Our stateroom attendant was excellent. Don't spend much time in the room so if your not looking for a balcony you can save money for a non balcony.

Ship tip

Great ship just need to work on the activities and they will probably get better with more practice coming out of covid. If you still have to pretest, and you do purchase the tests from Royal Caribbean be prepared for the company you call for testing. The price is good for the test but they are hard to understand and they talk fast to move onto the next person. Not the best experience for that and hopefully you don't have to do it soon.
