Sail Date: Aug 2015
Cabin: Grand Suite with Balcony

Have cruised many times before. This was the first time with RCI

Boarding was simplicity after having done most of the admin previously on line

Accom - Our suite was centrally situated - it was essentially just a larger version of a normal cabin - thus it did not feel special. In our experience Costa, P&O and Cunard suites are sufficiently different from regular cabins to make the cost of upgrade worth it

Cabin Review

Grand Suite with Balcony

Cabin GS

Modern fixtures and fittings. Great widescreen TV. Lots of storage. Stocked mini bar. Nice bathroom with shower and quite small in length bath. Separate WC/washroom. Whoever designed the WC door to have a left hand hinge, had never used it. Totally the wrong way round. Good size balcony.

The down side is the cabin is just an upsized regular cabin - it doesn't feel special

Perfect location mid ships on deck 6 - immediately open hand for lifts - one deck up from the Royal Promenade

Port Reviews

Gibraltar

Just walk off. In 2 minutes you're in the centre of town

Cartagena (Colombia)

The ship docs on the edge of the Marina. Walk off and you're in town

Marseille

Walk off not possible. Shuttle bus or taxi needed. EURO 25 to get to the popular old port area

Seville

Walk off the ship and you're in town. Lovely old city - could have stayed a week

Lisbon

Walk off the ship - the old town is right in front. Walk along the promenade. Square close by with restaurants and shops

Vigo

Pretty tatty town with lots of Spain's 25% unemployment evident by empty shops and run down buildings Decent shopping street 1/2 mile away
