Traveled with children

Have enjoyed our trip with the exception of the fact that 80% was booked by college students on Spring break and many times they were acting inappropriately. We were there as a family with 2 young kids and so had to explain a lot of their behaviour. Otherwise, cruise and staff were great.

Food was great, staff were always doing their best to provide excellent service. I also loved that staff were from all over the world. Our room was also decent - smaller than on other larger ships, but adequate and clean.

In terms of activities, there wasn't as much for kids to do on this ship as on other royal Caribbean ships. The Rock Climbing wall which was one of the few activities was not operational during this cruise. The pool was quite small and most of the time was taken up by the college students, Same story with the few hot tubs. During our previous cruise, kids had a lot more choices.
