Additional details
Cruise was 10 night South Pacific. My 4th cruise, first with RCI. Previous 3 with P&O
The embarkation process was pretty smooth. We waited in line for nearly half an hour and then went through the formalities of checking in and photos taken and were on board and having lunch in the windjammer and it was about 3 pm. After that we went and found our room and our luggage was waiting stacked at the end of the corridor so we wheeled it ourselves to our cabin. We were travelling with a 6 year old and 1 year old so our cot was not in the room. We asked our cabin attendant about the cot and he brought one back about an hour later. The room overall was small, that is to be expected on an inside cabin. The bathroom was particularly tiny, and the shower would be quite a struggle for anyone other than a normal build.
We had set time dinning of 6pm, as we chose not to pre-pay the gratuities. Our table attendant Anoop was sensational and quite frankly was the best staff member we have encountered on all our cruises. The dinner service was not rushed and we would most nights finish at about 7.40pm. My wife enjoyed the RCI dining food better but I rated my last P&O cruise better but overall was very enjoyable.
Cabin Review
Interior Stateroom
Cabin felt smaller than previous cruises. We had a cot in the room and they positioned it right in the main floor space. We moved the lounge next to the bed and we could then fit the cot under the TV which then allowed us to be able to walk between the beds and cupboards, bathroom. The bathroom was pretty small. The shower cubicle was the tiniest I have ever experienced, but it was always hot and had enough pressure to do its job. If you spend most of your time out of the cabin and use it mainly for a rest or the nightly sleep it wont be to much of a problem. It can get a little congested when everyone is trying to get ready to go out.
