This was my first time going on a cruise. I must admit, I had done so much research, I thought I knew exactly what I had in store for me. Boy, was I wrong! First of all, I was not prepared by the size of the ship. Pulling up to the pier was so exciting. The embarkation process was very easy and quick. We got on the ship in around 15 minutes or so, and immediately went to The Windjammer for lunch. By the time we had finished eating, our luggage was already in our waiting rooms. My sister and I shared an interior room, and my mom, uncle and other sister shared a room at the back with a balcony. While the balcony was wonderful to visit, I loved my inside room. It was bigger than I expected, and was so nice to sleep in because of the total darkness. I found the beds to be very comfortable and the room to be very clean. I was impressed.

I thought this cruise was a lot of fun. I loved the activities on the ship. Anna, and her activities assistants, did an amazing job. We enjoyed trivia daily, karaoke twice, and each game show. The Quest game was so much fun! I didn't get to every show at night, like I expected to. I did enjoy Milt Abel and David Morgan, the comedians. They were very funny. The Drifters performed one night and they were awesome. Young or old, the audience loved their timeless show. I didn't bother with the production shows featuring the Royal Caribbean singers and dancers. I thought they were sub-par, and found other entertainment on those nights. The 50s, 60s, and 70s themed dance parties in the Centrum were a great time too! There was a lot to do, and I do wish I had taken advantage of more of it.

I am used to vacationing at Disney World, so I am used to good service. I was not disappointed here. Our steward, Sandy, was wonderful. Not only did he do a great job in the room, but he made great towel animals and was so friendly and polite. The other room that my family stayed in also had a steward named Sandy, who they were pleased with.

Cabin N

Very comfortable beds and bedding, small bathroom, convenient and surprising amount of storage...Room got so dark, and quiet, at night, it was like a cave. I loved it!
