Serenade of the Seas Review
Rating by category
Additional details
Frequent RC cruiser - diamond plus Crown and Anchor member. Sailing solo and looking for a relaxing vacation. Have visited many of the islands previously so looking forward to just relaxing, reading, and generally non rushed, type of experience. Have sailed this class of ship previously; however, more recently been sailing on the Allure, Oasis, Independence, Navigators.
Overall, a good cruise. Food was good. Service was excellent. Received an upgrade to a junior suite. Ate primarily in MDR. Staff was very welcoming for breakfast and lunch.
Negatives included congestion and crowding, slow elevators, smoke from casino drifting to other locations.
Cabin Review
Junior Suite
Cabin was a pleasant surprise. Booked a balcony and received upgrade. Some noise from Windjammer carts, but I am not a late sleeper or napper, so didn't bother me.
Excellent steward and cabin was well maintained.
