Review summary

It has been 2 years since we were on Royal Caribbean. We had taken a couple of cruises on other lines. It was wonderful to be back on RC. It is still our most favorite cruiseline and will definitely return.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The Windjammer always had wonderful selections for each meal. The dinners that we had in the main dining room were very good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Spent alot of time at the pool. Our grandsons loved the waterslides. We enjoyed many of the evening games in the OnAir. One suggestion- some of the games were marked as 18+. The content really didn't need to be and there were kids in there, which is fine. But if the game is noted as 18+ then only adults should be able to participate in the game.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Overall entertainment was great. We went to the adult comedy show one night- it was mediocre. The Hiro water show was amazing. The talent in that show was unbelievably good

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
Our grandsons enjoyed the kids club a couple of nights. They seemed to have a good time

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff throughout the ship was wonderful. Very helpful and friendly. Always greeted the passengers with a smile and a hello. Our cabin steward, Adi, went above and beyond. He always greeted us by name and with a big smile.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was very clean, everywhere we went.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
As stated earlier, our cabin steward was wonderful. The size of the cabin was a good size for the 2 of us

Ship tip

We had My Time dining and didn't have dining reservations. We didn't understand how the My Time worked. It should be explained a little more clearly.
