This was our first cruise. Everything on board surpassed my expectations. The food was great and always available. We joked about having first breakfast and second breakfast nearly every day. The production shows were very entertaining. I could have easily sat through a second performance of any one of them. My wife and I especially loved the stand up comedy shows. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. I enjoyed the activities as well with highlights being several morning Zumba classes and evening rock climbing almost every day. Our teenage kids hung out with the teen activities until late each night and met several new friends. The staff were always very friendly and attentive and the ship was always extremely clean and well maintained. Our times on shore were not as impressive as it took some work to get to the beaches and they were very crowded. But we did do a Discover Scuba package on St Thomas which was an excellent experience. I will definitely cruise with RCI again.
