Sail Date: Jun 2016

The ship is huge so be prepared to walk. The Solarium is fabulous but they need to have more attendants to get the selfish peoples towels up when they are left all day. The entertainment is top notch too bad the theater isn't. Be warned there are bars between the rows all down the width of the theater. Very difficult to get in and out and the sides are impossible to get a good view. Get there half an hour early to really enjoy the shows. The other theater H270 is incredible and a good lounging area. Loved our cabin very roomy and the veranda was the biggest we have had. All the personnel are excellent and knowledgeable. Always courteous. The dynamic dining is fun but avoid the American Icon it needs work very disorganized. The islands are all easy access and the whole ship is handicapped friendly. Too much selling of junk jewelry but that is to be expected on all ships I think now. The main concourse is nice but a lot of time taken over by these sales. The internet is good but the Royal IQ is terrible I kept being bounced off. Lots of things to do for families and really active people on board. All and all we enjoyed the cruise a lot. Hope they fix these annoyances to make it perfect. Oh got the drink packages the alcohol one is worth it not the soda as you can help yourself to all kinds of different nonalcoholic drinks on board all day.

Port Reviews

St. Maarten

Been to St. Maarten so just went to the wharf. Lovely island.

San Juan

San Juan is safe see the Cathedral where Ponce de Leon is buried and one of the forts they are amazing.

Labadee

Really hot if you are disabled there are wheelchairs and sand wheelchairs at the wharf to take you to the beach. Lots to do for the active. We got tshirts and saw the beach.

King's Wharf

nice port we have been to Bermuda several times if you want to see Horseshoe Bay or Hamilton etc you need to take the boat at the wharf. Shopping and fun dining at the wharf plus a museum. Excursion not really needed

Bayonne (Cape Liberty)

It is a shipping port nothing there but a really beautiful 911 memorial
