First ever cruise so chose a large "Family Friendly" ship. Adventure of the Seas. Quite a few poor reviews read after we'd booked ! so were very worried...but all was ok....read on for more..........

Travelling with 2x kids aged 10yrs & 2yrs. Youngest has a Dairy Allergy. We made this known at time of booking and was advised this would not be a problem. We emailed a doctors letter to our booking company which allowed us to check-in with our luggage a MedicalBag with her own soya margerine/milk/puddings/biscuits etc.

Room: Sea-view balcony. Not large but comfy queen bed, large sofa bed for the kids to share. Was worried about this @ booking as RCI don't provide bed-guards, so we took our own travel one. Didn't use it as the room attendant made the bed up so our youngest slept along the wall one side and our eldest slept on the open side. We put pillows down the middle and they slept fine all week ! Result. Bathroom a bit dated but good sized shower, clean, plenty of fresh towels. Balcony chairs could have done with updating but serviceable.

Cabin Review

Superior Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin D2

6650( Deck 6) Balcony sea-view.Decent size, could do with more shelves in wardrobe for four of us.Bathroom a bit dated, chips around bottom out-side of shower (to be picky) but otherwise clean and tidy with plenty of hot-water and clean towels.Carpet, better vacuuming required otherwise ok.Fridge/mini-bar clean.Clean fresh bedding.Balcony area - furniture a bit dated, again could do with renewing but chairs/table was serviceable.Bins always emptied.Quiet location, apart from late at night kids/guests less consincious of noise running past on ocassion.Didnt hear any music/too much entertainment noise, even though room was over/close to Deck 5 Royal Promenade side of the ship.
