Royal Caribbean Senior Cruises Reviews

Very disappointing cruise in so many ways. After 40+ cruises we have some idea of the norm one should expect and this was a huge letdown and should be an embarrassment for Royal Caribbean (RC). We put the blame on RC for the poor experience. It seems that they have cut back on staff and there were often no workers to help with things that were needed. Phone calls for assistance were not ...

My partner and I needed a break from the weather and the 10 day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean seemed like a great solution. We drove to Ft. Lauderdale and parked in the port garage. It did not seem worth the savings to use one of the off-site parking places. We had heard of problems at some of them with shuttle waits and other issues. I am a Diamond level RCCL cruiser and my partner was on ...

This was a 50th anniversary cruise for one set of grandparents. Stops included Nassau and Coco Cay. Three generations of extended family on board. The ship was beautiful and the crew very friendly and helpful. The balcony rooms were very clean and comfortable. Doni, our stateroom attendant was wonderful. Yes, they only service the rooms once a day now, but the room for our kids and grandchildren ...

Our family of 5 cruised on Anthem of The Seas because the ship had so much to offer and we were not disappointed. Our family includes two 55 y.o. and a 25, 23 and 21 year old. We all had a great time. The entertainment was the best, we were never lacking in things to do. On the last 2 days we hit some rough seas but the entertainment never stopped and we kept busy attending all the offerings! ...

We arrived at the new Galveston Port and there were no porters to help us. We were in a seriously long line and it was hot. We were in the sun and in line for over an hour. We had to drag our luggage to the luggage intake area and I along with a lot of people did not tip. No service, no tip. Being a Diamond Plus member means nothing anymore. All RCCL cares about is the suite guests. A ...

I chose this cruise because of the timing. My daughter had her college spring break this week and it fit into our schedule nicely for a mother-daughter SB cruise. The itinerary was pretty light (only two stops in Key West and Labadee and two days at sea) but it ended up being great. The ship was older and shows its age in the rooms and some common areas but is well maintained and clean. We had a ...

I go a long way back with this cruise ship, and I still sail annually on this one. From a troubling experience during their second sailing, to a consistent very good one for all my sailings going forward. Checked in at 10AM and didn't board until 10:20AM. Muster station check-in was flawless. When I inquired about getting a personal table, that got resolved without issue since I was a Diamond ...

This was our 2nd time on the Anthem. First time we really enjoyed ourselves. This time we notice some changes in so far as the cleanliness of the ship. In the past, crew members were constantly cleaning all areas of the ship. This time, we notice things like in the windjammer, we had sat at the same table for lunch as we did for breakfast. How did we know, the same food scraps were still on the ...

We recently were on Rhapsody of the Seas out of Barbados. Since there have not been many reviews of the cruises out of Barbados, and especially the Island Hop itinerary where you visit 7 islands in 7 days, I wanted to post this review. I am not an expert review poster, so this might be a little all over the place. This is mostly going to be about our experience on each island, including what ...

We chose this cruise ship because we cruised same ship in mid December. Then ship went into dry dock. It certainly did not make any improvements. If anything maintenance was lacking. Service in the Main dining room was very slow. Food brought luke warm. And they cut the menu in half. Asked for a paper cup to bring 2 coffees to our room and was told that I had to get them from bar on deck ...
