Sail Date: Jun 2016
Cabin: Junior Suite

This was our 11th cruise overall and 8th with Royal Caribbean. We chose this cruise because of the itinerary. The ports of call were, Messina and Naples Italy, Mykonos, Santorini and Athens Greece as well as Kusadasi Turkey.

We arrived in Rome a day before the cruise and stayed at the Crown Plaza St. Peter's, which we booked through RCI. The hotel is not too close to the city center. The room was comfortable and the dining at the hotel was above average.

The next day our luggage was picked up in our room and was taken straight to the ship and to our cabin. The ride to the cruise port took about an hour. There were no lines at the cruise terminal and check in was a breeze. We were on the ship within 10-20 minutes.

Cabin Review

Junior Suite

Cabin JS

This was our first time in a Junior Suite and we will not have anything less on future cruises. The cabin was comfortable and spacious with a walk-in closet and full size bath tub. The balcony was a good size with a table, two chairs and a lounger chair.

Mykonos

We strolled the town on our own, ate, shopped and took lots of pictures.
