I hate to say it, but Royal Caribbean should be ashamed. Disappointing cruise.

Warning! This will be a long review!

To start, I have been on 10 cruises prior to this one (Carnival x5, RC x 3, Disney x2). Almost all have been similar duration and price point so I feel like I have a pretty good frame of reference. Also, I am NOT a picky person. I love cruising and have rarely been disappointed because I enjoy almost everything about it and love to vacation. I will break down my comments by categories:

Cruise check in/embarkation: Great. Had kind of a scatterbrained lady but still went very quickly, Possibly the fastest check-in I've ever had.

Port Reviews

Key West

We booked our own trolley tour and really enjoyed it. If you can afford it rent a golf cart or bicycle, there is a lot of walking to see all the interesting things on Key West.

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

No excursion. we did Locked Inn, and escape game and it was very good. Otherwise, we just explored.

Miami

good experience getting on and off ship
