We chose this cruise for the price and for the ports of call. We felt it was helpful to plan and pay for tours ahead of time. It was alittle disconcerting to be asked for a tip right as we stood in line to hand over our luggage. We felt it gavea bad impression of Royal Caribbean always paying for something more. Soon forgotten as the embarkation went very smoothly. It was a very enjoyable trip. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was top notched. The food was enjoyed and enjoyed again.
The only complaint (minor if that) was it was hard to hear the soundtrack of the movie that played on deck in the evening. The separate pool and hot tub area for adults was enjoyed. The evening shows were entertaining. We were pampered in the Dinning room. We didn't have a bad meal. The cabin was always neat and tidy. The pillows and bed were very comfortable. Enough time was spent in the ports and the excursions were the highlight of the ports. We really enjoyed our cruise.
The cabin was always clean, alittle on the smallish side but big enough for our needs. The hallways were quiet.
Took a taxi a beach and snorkelled.
