The whole experience was fantastic. From getting on board the ship to disembarking at the end was made so easy for us. No hassle at the port. No hassle getting on the ship. No hassle with heavy luggage. No hassle finding the stateroom. (cabin) No hassle finding wonderful food. No hassle with excursions. You just meet up at a specified time and follow your guide to the coach waiting just off the ship. The ships staff are brilliant at their jobs, and are so helpful. It is so easy from the moment you get on the ship, to the moment you leave. The entertainment was superb, ranging from X Factor finalists to pub rock bands to jugglers and comedians. There was live premiership football on giant poolside screens. Bands playing up on deck. Numerous Quizzes, covering all subjects. Casino's. A putting green. Gaming machines areas, Cinema, Jacuzzi. The list is endless. We were so impressed with royal caribbean, we have booked another one with them this june.
