Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The Buffett was excellent. As a vegetarian, I sometimes struggle however, there is a vegetarian section which was fab. There is more vegetarian food dotted around but you need to ask to be sure it’s vegetarian. The main dining room was good, again..plenty choice and our waitress was very helpful with the vegetarian options. All in all, they were very accommodating.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The choice of activities and facilities is amazing! The pools, the hot tubs & water slides are all fab. The flow rider is absolutely brilliant too! The abyss slide runs 10 floors and is great fun as was the crazy golf and zip line. There really is something for everyone!

Entertainment

Epic! The ice show is amazing and the show at the aqua theatre is a must see, it really is breathtaking. I’d go back on board just to see it again!

My 15 year old son was happy to spend his time with us. We didn’t use any kids/teen programmes.

Service and Staff

All of the staff we encountered were excellent. Friendly, helpful and all with a smile! They really do go that extra mile.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Spotlessly clean and really well maintained. The layout flows well, I am usually the one to get lost on board but I found it really easy to navigate and find my way around. It’s been designed really well and is also stunning to look at.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a balcony cabin overlooking Central Park within h was beautiful. The cabin was spacious with plenty hanging space and storage. As for the beds and pillows….the comfiest ever! Royal Caribbean really do have the best beds, pillows & bedding.

La Spezia, Italy

5 out of 5
Stayed on the ship to enjoy! But been before and it’s lovely

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
Rome is fantastic. We got a transfer into the city and walked around at our own pace which I’d highly recommend as there’s lots to see.

Naples, Italy

3 out of 5
Don’t think I’d rush back. We did a big red bus tour and a lot of Naples is very run down. However, if you head to the coast, it’s worthwhile.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy and quick
