We have never cruised with RC before and we loved the experience. The ship was tastefully appointed throughout. Our cabin was perfect size for 2 people and for the first time ever, we had a balcony cabin. Only one criticism was a very hard bed so my back didn't enjoy it.

This was my 20th cruise and the families 11th cruise.

We enjoyed the food in Windjammer as well as the 3 level dining room. We attended a Chefs Table which was pretty awful. It was held in a sectioned off part of the Windjammer and the food was pretty bad, not sure of anyone who calls "heart of palms" a dinner course. However wine was plentiful do we did try to get our money's worth there. We do Chefs Table on every cruise we do so could compare it to numerous P&O ships and one Carnival ship.
