Chose this cruise for the ship and destinations. There were a great many things that we loved, and some that we didn't. I am Platinum cruiser, and this definitely up to standards.

First and foremost, there are many other reviews from this cruise about it being a frat party. Yes, it was. But who cruises on your particular voyage has little fault of the ship and crew. You just make the best of it, which we did. I will say, I saw very few issues with security, extreme public intoxication, or lewd/offensive behavior as others have stated.

We were a group of 15-30 year old friends just on a vacation. We had rooms spread out all over the ship due to different booking times, but were together for Dinner each night. Ship was in great condition, and was happy that it hasn't yet gone through the enhancements that Freedom and Liberty have, which kept the nightclub and full sundeck in working order. Cabin was fairly standard for Royal Caribbean.

Took the Trolly Tour from the company right at the pier. Very enjoyable.
