Review summary

Wonderful experience from beginning to end. Have cruised other lines before and would definately cruise with RC again. The shopping on board was disappointing - and the sales were a little pushy - but overall - you can be as busy or as relaxed as you want.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Most of the shows were great - only didn't like one - stand up comics were ok - DJ's were too loud on deck - but still fun

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Some of the waiters were a bit slow - but to be fair - I do not know how lard of an area they had to service - our room steward was exceptional - bartenders (we all have our favorite) just wish I could have gotten a dirty monkey at the bar :[

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was very clean. Everything was in great shape.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Wish there was a bit more storage space - but I am an over packer - so for the normal person I am sure it must be great. Do not spend much time in the cabin - so the size is pretty good.

Ship tip

Make sure to bring magnets to hang things on in the ship. Do not be afraid to ask for things you need.

Weather prohibbed us from stopping there

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Loved it. Lots of shopping. The beach was great. The mozzarella sticks and the funnel cake were to die for. Easy to navigate the isle. Couldn't have been happier.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Nice shopping at the port. I took a taxi to the beach and had a wonderful quiet day on a peaceful beach.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Great experience from leaving the room, eating breakfast, easy walk off the ship, down the escalator there were porters who were immediate to help. Porter walked us to the curb where we waiting for our ride! Went super quick!
