Enjoyed the holiday, however I would certainly book direct with Royal Caribbean next time as the literature from the travel agent was almost nil. Thoroughly enjoyed the visits to all locations on the cruise and I must say the food was absolutely unbelievable. 95% of the staff were superb and could not do enough to assist you. The cabin was adequate but being an inside cabin there was no ventilation apart from the air conditioning and I would advise customers to spend that bit extra to have an outside cabin. It was kept spotlessly clean by our attendant who was really polite and helpful throughout our stay. This was the first cruise I have been on and having spoken to several people on the cruise a lot stated that the ship was a little outdated and needed refurbishing compared to other cruise ships of the same size that they had experienced on several cruises. However for a first time experience I am glad I booked the cruise as it was a learning experience and I now have more idea as to what to look for when thinking of cruising in the future. Regarding tips, I did not pay the money stated when booking the holiday and paid tips to the staff that I thought deserved them to them personally at the end of the holiday.
