Review summary

Like I said earlier this was a great cruise. I had no intention of saying it would be in my top 3 of cruises as it was during spring break ( a first for me) and it's a brand new ship (another first for me) but I still thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. If you've been on Symphony of the Seas then things will seem very familiar but also different enough to seem new. I enjoyed the variety of food on the ship as well and Labadee has become my favorite port of all time out of 7 cruises. If you want to see more youtube my full honest review I recently uploaded just search MrBucketlist Wonder of the seas Honest review, as its too much to type on here. Enjoy your cruise!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

It was good. The capacity was a lot higher than my symphony of the seas cruise in October 2021, so we did have to sit in the terminal for about 15 minutes. But other than that is was smooth as can be.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

This was my first time trying specialty dining. It was all great. I really enjoyed the experience at wonderland even though the food was strange, and the brunch at the Mason Jar was good as well. It was so night to have the buffet open at night, and the different theme's they had made for a good variety.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Great activities, nothing different from symphony. With that said I still enjoyed them all, and the lines were bad for the size of the crowds and kids on board.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Some of my favorites on any cruise ship. I really enjoyed Intense. Voices was ok, but the tap factory was really impressive.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The staff was great, they remember me even when I didn't remember them.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The ship is new and it looked like it, no issues.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

This was my only issue with the cruise, this cabin. Not only was it on this floor (9th floor) where we all heard this loud banging noise every morning at 5am, but everything inside the room slammed. I told one of my friends and they told me I had to call the service staff to get it fixed, that doesn't make sense on a new ship.

May I ask what room you had? I'm praying it's not the one we booked for our October trip...
