We love the ship in general. Love the options for entertainment and all the different spaces, including the significant sized solarium. Getting through registration and on the ship was a breeze. I think we were on board by 11:30.
We enjoyed the main dining room the most, for consistent excellent services. We wnt to Izumi and had a horrible experience. We were rushed to the point where we were truly uncomfortable. Also, the chef was so over the top corny, it was like watching a clown at a kids party. No one at our table (12 people) liked him. The sushi and hibachi food was really sub-par for a RCI dining experience. The tenderloin and shrimp were excellent, but the rest (rice, scallops, lobster, Tuna Sashimi, Spider roll) were really sub-par. We had a much better experience at Izumi back in February on this ship.
Cruise director staff, 70's party, diving show & comedy were all fantastic. Rising tide had the best bartenders for us.
This cabin was the first one with a balcony on the starboard side of the 10th floor. For those who like to keep the door open for long periods of time, this is a great option, as no one is smoking upwind of you.
Friendly staff, short ride, small island kind of all to yourself. The wait staff waded right out into the water. nice place.
We stayed at the Marriott harborside and the port terminal itself was very efficient, comfortable and well run.
