Fabulous cruise on Independence with RCI after a break of over 2 years - same ship and no disappointments whatsoever.
Would give excellent to all aspects but this is just our view and experience.
Our experience was fantastic and cannot praise RCI or the ship or crew highly enough - some feedback that may benefit others:
Cabin was great for the two of us with sofa and balcony. Nice shower and everything spotlessly clean. We were towards rear of ship close to midships stairs and lifts so handy to get to restaurants/dining but a pleasant walk thru promenade deck to theatre etc....
Quiet and no noise and even in rough seas was ok
Have previously had cabin at front on this ship and in rough weather even on deck 8 the spray and waves broke on balcony - exciting stuff!!!
Some passengers up front felt it was too far to walk to get their meals.... ie should have been warned perhaps or go on a smaller ship in future
