I can best describe my cruise in one word...mediocre. My husband and I have been on two other cruises, both with Royal Caribbean. Trying to compare the POA cruise to those is like comparing apples to zebras. Since it is an American run ship the staff acted like they were doing you a favor. We were treated like royalty on Royal Caribbean, but not on this ship. The only time we were able to get a lounge by the pool was on the day we didn't leave the ship and we were out there by 10:00 AM. Too many people, not enough room.

The last day of the cruise they had a barbeque where the line snaked around the pool area just to get a hamburger and then you had to go inside because there were no seats.

Specialty dining was just ok (Moderno and La Cucina).

Cabin Review

Nice room. We were aft and we had a large balcony with two lounge chairs. Typical cruise room. Quite a trek to the swimming pool and restaurants. Four channels on the tv, ESPN, MSNBC, FOX. new movie releases, the rest are ship channels, cruise director babbling on in the morning, longitude latitude, what restaurants have availability, etc.
