Review summary

Very disappointed in this cruise. The casino was closed for more than half of it due to having to stay overnight in Cozumel and the storm encountered on the way back. The bars were also closed on the way back due to the storm. We don't really feel there was much value for our money. Not sure if we will sail with Royal Caribbean again or not.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Luggage was handled promptly and we were able to get right on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
We only ate in the main dining room the first night. It was not good so we did not bother going back. Very disappointed in both the food and our waiter. Much better on the last cruise we took on Royal so maybe we had unrealistic expectations but I don't think so. Windjammer was good and that's where we ate most of our meals.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Enjoyed the cornhole boards.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Comedian and magician were both excellent. Enjoyed watching a movie in the theater much more than on the pool deck.

Children's Programs

Did not have our grandchildren with us.

Ship tip

Nice ship. Great layout.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

4 out of 5
Great parking. Friendly staff.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico Did not visit port

We could not dock in Costa Maya due to the weather. Instead we spent 2 days in Cozumel. Very disappointed by this as it not only took away one night in the Casino but also I don't care much for the touristy feel of Cozumel

Cozumel, Mexico

2 out of 5
Too touristy.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
A little unorganized but we were able to disembark about 30 minutes after our scheduled time.
