This is our 8th cruise with RCCL, and wouldn't go anyplace else. Royal Caribbean has beautiful ships. We usually travel twice a year. One 7 day, and one 3 day per year. My partner and I like the Voyager class of ships because of their size, and all the activities onboard. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure you're some place in the center of the ship. If you're all the way in the front or back of the ship, there's an awful lot of walking involved. Mid ship is really perfect.

The spa, and gym are the best! Shops onboard are very nice, and the art auction is well worth visiting. We purchased two Salvador Dali's. We don't use the casino, but it's like something you would see in a casino on land. What we really enjoyed was the pool deck, because you really had a pool for everyone. There's a baby pool all the way in the back, two pools for families with younger children in the center, and then an adult only pool in the front. This was very refreshing. An 18+ pool.

There's plenty of food onboard, if that's what you're going for. I do enjoy eating, but I don't want to eat my fare's worth of it either. We both enjoyed eating in the main dining area for most meals. Usually we had fresh coffee and fruit delivered to our suite, before we headed off to the gym and spa. After our morning workout we usually ate in the main dining area for breakfast. Shore excursions in the afternoon, or site-seeing. Lunch in the main dining area. Off to the gym before dinner. Again, in the main dining area except for two evenings.
