Embarkation was very quick, the staff was very friendly and there were many agents available to process our credentials. We had ship card in hand within 15 minutes of our arrival at the terminal. Our cabin was Junior Suite 8172. Overall it was clean and well maintained. Our cabin steward Roy provided fast and very friendly service.
We ate breakfast and dinner in the dining room every day except once when we dined at Chops. The food in the Windjammer and the dining room was very good and the staff was quite courteous and friendly. I highly recommend Chops as an alternative. As I mentioned before, food and service in the main dining room is excellent, However, Chops takes the dining experience to another level with its unique menu, food presentation and one on one service. As frequent cruisers, we have gone to most of the specialty restaurants and Chops is our favorite. I love the filet mignon and since my husband and I have small appetites we take advantage of the shareable sides.
The headliner shows were quite good. The Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers put on a great production.
