We chose this cruise because it was close to home, not getting on a plane is the way to go if possible. We also chose it because it was our anniversary.

Overall this was disappointing. The Grandeur is probably 20 years old, and although it has been refurbished you could definitely tell it's age. The only outstanding features about this cruise was embarkation and disembarkation, and the Diamond lounge. Being a Diamond member, mainly because of our loyalty to Celebrity because both lines are owned by the same company, did come with perks. Three free drinks were loaded onto our sea pass every day. In addition they offered a "happy hour" if you will, with hors deurves. The ports of call were also excellent. Food, entertainment, on board activities, and cabins were below what we have experienced on other cruise lines. Granted that many of these short comings might been attributed to the fact that the ship was older and smaller, and could not offer a wide range of amenities.

We would not consider Royal Caribbean again unless it was a newer ship
