After reading some of the critical reviews of the TA cruise, I was skeptical that my family and I would be Wowed as we hoped we would. We were so wowed that we can't wait to do it again. We arrived at the Port at 12:20PM and we were boarded, had lunch, and unpacked by 2PM. Our cabin attendant was marvelous. If you ever get Nadine as your attendant you will be Wowed. We had dinner the first night at the Windjammer Café as we had reservations to see Cats at 8:30PM. It was a wonderful performance. This was our third time seeing Cats and this performance was on par with other shows we had seen. Sunday night we had our first formal night and our first seating in the main dining room. The quality of food and service exceeded all of our expectations. As stated by other cruisers, the ship is a marvel and well worth seeing. We never had long lines and major waits for anything we wanted to do. The ports of call were so, so but our family enjoyed them all. Grandma and I did our shopping but we spent more time on ship than off. Our son, daughter-in-law, and adult granddaughters were zip lining, exploring caves and driving ATVs, All in all we had a great family cruise.

The only two negatives I can tell you about are, 1. Pictures. My God have they gotten expensive and I didn't care how they used all six of our sea passes so that we had to buy three sets of pictures in order to get them all; 2. Understaffed Customs agents during disembarkation. Getting off the ship was long and tedious but not the fault of Royal Caribbean.

So, if you want a great family cruise, choose the Oasis or the Allure. You will love it!
