As 2nd time cruisers we weren't sure if it would meet our expectations. Having been on-board 2 years ago when the ship was fairly new we wondered if it would be as spectacular, well we walked on board and it was just as impressive, clean and new looking .. Well done Royal Caribbean on having such high standards.
My other half had arranged champers and flowers for our arrival and sure enough everything was in place, which was lovely as he had to organise it separately to ensure I wouldn't see it online.
Everything was just as we remembered and with it being our 2nd time we just got right down to enjoying ourselves.
Our stateroom definately met our expectations, we choose a balcony as being able to have fresh air as well as daylight is important to me, not being a morning person I would never have woken up with an inside cabin!
The stateroom attendants were always on hand but never intrusive which is a great combination, the stateroom was always cleaned and the towel animals always a talking point.
