Sail Date: Aug 2015
Cabin: Junior Suite with Balcony
Traveled with children

After eight cruises & three previous RCI cruises, we though we'd try the really big ship!

Overall the facilities, cabins, pool areas, restaurants, boardwalk, promenade etc have a similar feel & style to Independence & Liberty of the seas.

This was a port intensive cruise with only one sea day (I was slightly dreading this, because of passenger numbers) but it was windy & cloudy so pretty empty around the pools. What we didn't realise was that there were two ports where embarkation & disembarkation occurred during the cruise, this meant, for the children, friendship groups changed half way through the holiday, which was a bit of a disappointment for them.

Cabin Review

Junior Suite with Balcony

Cabin JS

With two teenagers in tow, this was well worth the extra money for the walk in wardrobe & extra sq footage. Large balcony with table & chairs, plus 2 loungers…& a proper bath!

Port Reviews

Palma de Mallorca (Majorca)

Shuttle bus to town centre. Easy to walk around town & see the cathedral on foot.
