So for everyone who says the ship is to big and it's to crowd do not believe the hype, it was perfect from beginning to end. RCI thought of every little detail and brought it into this amazing ship. From the shows to the entertainment to the food venues all where really good.

Our room was a boardwalk balcony 11725, three from the end on the starboard side and it was great. We had a nice view of the aquatheather and boardwalk, plus the secret balcony aft. It was never really noisy and pretty neat to try this type of room, but if I had to do it again I'd stick to an ocean view balcony just for the privacy, it was a little hard to be able to sit out there whenever you wanted because you had to be decent to be out there. The bed was by the closet which worked for us and there was just enough storage space for us. The bathroom was good shower will be a little tight for bigger people. Me an DW are both 31 and in fairly good shape so it wasn't that big of a deal. The water pressure was great in the shower. Our room steward was Gilbert who was amazing and one night I forgot to take the do not disturb sign out of the door and he left a long note for me wanting to make sure everything was OK. The room was impeccable and always timely made up, he even thought of things to do before we could ask, just an amazing asset to the ship and so friendly.

We thought the entertainment and venues where great from the ice show to the 3d movies, karaoke, blaze, viking crown lounge rising tides, ocean aria, Chicago and boleros the music at the pool all where really great. The only show neither of us got was blue planet it was a total mess, anyone who says is it's like a Broadway show must have been drunk, we live in NY and go to shows all the time and it was nothing like anything I've ever seen, some parts where cool but it had no plot and was just all over the place. The drinks where all great DW fell in love the berry acai martini, I thought the beer selection was great.

Cabin B1

Closet has small, safe was in a bad spot (DW banged her head twice) and really small, it barley fit and i pad and a mini. The view was nice of the aqua theater and wake.
