This was our 14th cruise with RCL and we were very happy with most aspects of the cruise. We were a party of 6 consisting of my wife, 20 yr old daughter and her 21 yr old girl friend, my brother-in-law and his wife. We had 3 neighboring balcony cabins on deck 8. Room was ample size for all our stuff. The bed had 12" clearance from the floor which provided a great area to store our empty luggage.

Food: No complaints at all. I am a fitness nut and found great food for diet conscious people in the Windjammer for breakfast & lunch. Egg White Omlets with all kinds of veggies were cooked to order at the omlet station. Fruit was plentiful. The Main Dining Room also had great selections and we never experienced a bad meal. In Portofinos, the food was ok but the emphasis here is in the presentation. Unfortunately, the desserts in Portofinos were way too rich for my taste.

Concerns: My only concern was with the RCL staff who assigns the dining tables for non-MTD guests. Since booking our cruise 11 months in advance, we linked our 3 reservations on RCL's website so we would all be assigned to the same dining table. Well guess what...we were once again assigned to 3 separate tables (this is the second time this has happened to us, both on the Adventure of the Seas). Once we spoke to a head waiter, he was able to reassign all of us to the same table for the duration of the cruise. Read more
