Review summary

Too many disappointing things about this cruise. We will never choose Royal Caribbean again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was seemless with no delays

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Food in thr main dining room was excellent for dinner. Breakfast and lunch selections in the MDR were poor. Food in the buffet was poor. Worst selection of foods I've ever experienced on a ship.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Karaoke which is a favorite, was always scheduled after 10pm. The late schedule caused attendance to be poor with hardly any participants.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Most of the shows were terrible. The Beatles impersonation band was good. The 2 Brothers playing piano also good. The rest of the entertainers were terrible

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was fantastic. There is nothing negative about them. Our room was taken care of every day and she always made sure everything was perfect. The MDR staff, waiters and Matre'd, were excellent. They were quick to attend to every detail

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was kept very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin had a large picture window. The cabin was perfect for us

Booked a handicap friendly tour. It was average

Tenerife, Canary Islands Did not visit port

RCL messed up our handicap tour and couldn't correct it

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida Did not visit port

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Guest services advised me to just show up my scheduled time to get a wheelchair assist off the ship. When I showed up, I was told you don't have an appointment and would have to wait an hour to disembark. Worst experience ever
