Our 12th cruise and 3rd with RCCL. Ship was awesome as was the crew. Ship always being cleaned. Oceanview Balcony on deck 12 very quiet and easy access to elevators. Giovanni's was excellent, GO HUNGRY. Chops was just OK as the N.Y. strip I ordered was cooked right but was a bit tough. Windjammer was less than great and just a normal buffet. Guest services VERY attentive to issues.
Labadee was a great beach day but make sure the waiver is signed prior to going to any of the rides like Dragon's Tail Coaster or Zip Line. We loved the ship so much we just booked again for May 28, 2017. First time we are sailing on the same ship twice!! So much to see and do.
Don't miss "Oasis of Dreams" or "Frozen in Time". Both excellent shows. Room service always ontime, hot and they call when the food is on it's way to your cabin. Cabin steward introduced himself to us within 5 minutes of us getting into our cabin. There is wheelchair assistance at every port. Because the elevator banks or at both ends of the ship, and the venues are mostly mid-ship, there was easy access to all. Ship sailed full (over 6000 passengers) but except for after shows, never felt crowded.
Average size for an OV balcony. Counter space in bathroom almost non-existent.
As pier 18 was designed by RCCL, embarkation was smooth. Disembarkation was slow but think it was customs fault for not having enough agents.
Make sure waiver is signed before going to any of the rides. The waivers are done at a different building than the ride.
Stayed in the port area and went to Margaritaville. Free Wi-Fi there.
One of our favorite ports. We go to Paradise Beach every time we go to Cozumel.
