It was an absolute waste of money.  We got off the boat at 8:15 which was great! Got the the bungalow and checked in. There were LOADS of free chairs and umbrellas on the beach at that time.  We get our bungalow only to find out the section is neither private nor patrolled!  We had people who did not pay sit on our lounge chairs, smoking cigarettes next to us, and laying out in front of and next to our bungalow!  All you get is a 1 walled building, 4 bottles of Evian, 2 floating mats and 4 loaner beach towels.  You get no privacy, and 2nd hand smoke.  I asked those who were using our chairs to move, and they did, but they simply brought chairs down from the beach area.  It's not patrolled so I had to tell the people at the check in area that they were like on top of us. When I told them they moved the chairs but the guests didn't leave, they set up their towels and lit their smokes!  Anyone is allowed - it's not roped off or patrolled - you don't even get bar service and it's a decent walk to the buffet.  I STRONGLY discourage this particular excursion.

Cons:

*Lack of entertainment - there was basically a comedian and 1 ice show that was shown twice

*Navigator and Royal App out of sync so you could miss one of the VERY FEW events on board

*Waterslides are cool in concept, but there were absurd wait times (+1 hour) for the Blaster slide and only a few mats for the the Riptide so only the same 15 people can ride it and you have to basically wait for someone to not want to ride it anymore , including port days!There are about 15-20 mats on board, so if you don’t get a mat, you have to wait until someone doesn’t want to ride anymore as they don’t collect the mat at the bottom of the slide; if you have one you can keep it and ride the slide over and over.
