I will start by saying this was my 6th cruise overall but my first with Royal Caribbean. I have cruised 3 times with Carnival and twice on Disney. My cruise on Royal Caribbean was gifted to me by a wonderful organization.
Let’s start with the refreshment package. They charge $29.89 a day (after gratuity) for use of 3 soda dispensing machines, bottled water at the bar or specialty coffee. That is right 3 lousy machines for an entire ship and 2 of them get locked up behind doors between meals and after 9pm leaving 1 machine for the entire ship. If you do not buy a soda or a refreshment package (alcohol not included in either) do not order a soda at a meal without expecting to hand over your sea pass card for a close to $5.00 charge for each..no free refills here. There is no place that offers food 24 hours except for room service. There is no 24 hr pizza or burgers.
Room service- They charge $9.38 to deliver a very limited selection of foods to your room. Isn’t room service supposed to be one of the perks of cruising?
We did not see anything but a handful of fish
Tubing through caves was neat but they connect all of the tubes together
Only 4 zip lines and the equipment wreaked
Tiny port under major construction. Only a handful of shops.
