We are huge RCCL fans, so we were a little skeptical about going on this cruise.
My family takes turns each year to choose our Spring Break Vacation. This year, it was our (15yr) son's turn to pick the big vacation. Well, you guessed it; he chose The Epic. We tried to discourage him by showing him other RCCL Cruises or anything that we could think of to change his way of thinking, but we failed.
Y'all who have teenagers, can feel our pain; when he stubbornly refused to change his mind.:)
The bed was incredibly comfortable. Elemis products was an added bonus.
The location was great. We never had any traffic outside of our door.
I thought I was being smart by choosing the Starboard side of the ship, but little did I know that our ship backs-in to all of the ports! But having a view of the Atlantis Resort at Nassau made up for any ill feelings.
The square footage was small for a suite. The deck was no bigger than a regular balcony room's deck.
Being in the Haven is the only way to go!
If you are in a suite, or if you purchased a wrist band that allows you to enter the Haven, there is a sundeck up there, that is a must-see. Go up the stairs that are toward the rear of the private gym. It looks like nothing more than a few lounge chairs, but don't give up just yet. Turn and go down that hallway(solid white metal walls) that looks like its for crew members only. Don't worry keep going and it will turn one more time. Then open the door and be prepared to be amazed!!
