We booked this cruise to spend time with family and friends. The sale price was great and we were excited for the cruise. I like to have a few drinks while cruising and usually spend a few hundred dollars per cruise buying drinks for myself and friends/family. However, after being told a single Pina Colada was $12, I decided to not purchase a single beverage while onboard. The only charges on my account were for laundry and gratuities. I can only imagine this will impact Royal Caribbean's bottom line and the tips received by servers.

We had a terrible experience with Adventure Ocean on our prior Royal Caribbean cruise, but this boat had a wonderful staff and our girls had a wonderful experience.

The food in the Windjammer was just ok on this cruise, it has always been exceptional in the past. The dining room experience and food were great.

Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin E2

Standard balcony cabin. We had four cabins in a row. It was disappointing the balcony dividers could not be folded back.
