Decided on Royal Caribbean for the first time since it was our 20th wedding anniversary. The embarkation was is easy and not really time consuming taking about 45 minutes in all to actually get on the ship. Dining was mediocre since I felt there was not enough servers to handle the amount of people on the boat. The fine dining we experienced was more like eating at a normal restaurant rather then being pampered. Certain foods tasted great but others were ok. The fine dining at Giovannis was top notch. Spend the money to eat there at least one night. Food and service there was impeccable. Watching movies either in the grand theatre or at the pool deck was treat. The Saturday night fever show is a must see. The Love and Marriage show as also a enjoyable show. Don't for get Parade that happens on the royal deck, very entertaining and great for the young kids. One big drawback was the pool area. There was not a lot of pool space for the amount of people on board. I felt the were trying to accommodate to many age groups. Spend the money on the excursions whether you buy them on the boat or at port. Our interior cabin was a little small but really didn't spend a lot of time there. The debarkation went real easy no longer than 30 min.
