Ship is old and dirty, somethimes my plate from the windjammer was not clean. Food is left out to long resulting in bad food experience with burger ...
I would recommend this ship for primarily adults. Not enough activities for children. However the service was excellent. This ship isn't that big, but it is comfortable. The fitness room had updated equipment for those who like to work out, while on vacation. They didn't have updated weights, but they did have cable machines. They had most of the common used machines you would find in the gym. ...
We took this cruise to celebrate my 39th birthday. This was my first cruise since my diagnosis so i was prepared to only have a few things available to eat but boy was i wrong!!! This cruise turned out to be the best one we have ever been on, and it wouldn't have been possible without the staff kicking butts and taking names (and food and drink orders) the entire time!
Ship: 3/5
The ship is ...
Overall, the cruise was great with interesting and scenic ports. The ship offered several communal spaces with lots of activities. Great food and service! Biggest complaint was timing and/or lack of evening shows.
Pros: Good Windjammer buffet but would like more variety at lunches. Service in MDR was outstanding. Initial cabin requests were handled quickly and our room steward was efficient and ...
I never thought I would be disappointed on a cruise BUT our cruise on Serenade of the Seas earned that title. The ship needs an update and in an overhaul approach. We booked an interior stateroom on the 7th floor and decided to bid on an upgraded room. For 380 dollars we were “upgraded” to the 2nd floor (the bottom of the ship”) with a porthole the size of a pie. We could only access our floor ...
Wanted an accessible getaway with no flight required...and this worked. Pleasantly surprised and loved the smaller ship. The food could have been hotter but that's about the only real thing that was noteable. Some meals outshined others...but we had no complaints....the buffet was a buffet -with a ton of options and the other venues were quite good.. Chefs dinner was phenomenal. We did use room ...
Service nearly everywhere was very good to outstanding. The waiters we had in the MDR worked very well to get our table of 4 were very well taken care of and consistently out in about an hour and 15 minutes. The head waiter visited our table usually 2-3 times every night. This has NEVER happened before on any ship on any cruise line. We were lucky to see a head waiter 2-3 times the entire ...
We have been on 23 cruises, most with Royal Caribbean. This ship was not clean, food was terrible, up charge for lobster and filet mignon in the main dining room is ridiculous, nobody was at pasta station to serve in Windjammer, muster crew unaware how to direct passengers to proper location, price of drinks being $14 is too high, casino had mostly all progressive slots, bite size desserts are ...
It was around hurricane Idalia and we were supposed to leave out of Tampa.
The city closed down and the coast guard couldn't clear the ship to dock on time to pick us up on the day of.
Boarding was delayed a day and the cruise was shortened by a day which means that we didn't have time to make it to our destination to Cozumel Mexico. I was one of the few disappointed people because I am not ...
I’ve been on 9 cruises and this was by FAR, and I mean by far the worst. I don’t even know where to begin. The ship is extremely out dated and small. Crowds everywhere since there was nothing to do. The itinerary and daily schedule was literally all fluff. Nothing standing out, no real shows, no comedy’s, no adult activities. Casino was half broken and so small you couldn’t walk around. Just ...
