Our first time cruising. This cruise was suggested and organized by friends. We had no idea what to expect. Online check-in was easy and made embarkation a breeze. The ship was large enough to not feel crowded, except at the pools. There were plenty of activities on board that satisfied a wide variety of interests (bars, shopping, gambling, entertainment, etc.). Our cabin was large (junior suite), comfortable and clean. The staff was always helpful and friendly. We ate in the main dining every evening and were very happy with the quality and variety of the menu and service. The onboard entertainment was top-notch; very professional. Bar service was efficient and the buffet was well stocked and delicious. Service everywhere on the ship was great. The three ports of call were exciting and disembarkation was handled efficiently: Cozumel excursion (ruins and snorkel) was least enjoyable...too many people at the site and the ruins were lame. Grand Cayman was the BOMB (catamaran sail and snorkel). The excursion staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Jamaica stop (BlueWaters Beach Club) was fun and relaxing. Getting on and off the ship was easy and quick. Of course this was a costly cruise... much more that we were expecting but I'm sure there are less costly ways of cruising. We will definitely cruise again and I would be very happy to board a Royal Caribbean International vessel in the future.
Cabin was large and comfortable with a king size bed, sofa, chair and large patio with sliding glass door. Large walk-in closet. Full size bathroom. BUT only two electrical outlets. Suggest bringing a surge protector with additional outlets if you have more that two items that need to be plugged in at a time. There is plenty of storage space for all of your shore and onboard purchases!
