We were a little apprehensive about our cruise on the Anthem after all the negative press she has received lately, but I am happy to say that our 24th cruise was a very successful one!
We love being able to go out of Bayonne to avoid airfare...so happy Royal chose to base Anthem there!
Embarkation was okay but reminded me of boarding an airline...there were no specific areas to sit, so when they started boarding by C&A status, everyone was standing where you had to walk & trying to be the first on. In spite of this, we were boarded by 10:45. Biggest surprise was seeing all our bags awaiting us when we got to our cabin...first time that has ever happened...especially on such a massive ship!

Port Reviews
Labadee
Always love Labadee
San Juan
Getting there at 3pm was disappointing...if you wanted to do an excursion than you might have to skip dinner.
St. Maarten
Great shopping & beaches
Barbados
Very good...beach was gorgeous. Only issue was trying to get on pontoon boat while the surf was pushing it (no ladder & did not beach it)
St. Kitts (Port Zante)
Took a taxi to the beach...loved it.
