We are a couple in our early 50's cruising for our fifth time and third different cruise line.Let me start by saying this is a beautiful ship and the staff is great.I have read so many of these reviews I had to finally get my 2 cents in.

My wife and I used to like cruising to economically visit several places in one trip,but on this cruise we got off to a bad start by not docking at Coco Cay because of weather.THIS GAVE US 4 DAYS ON THE SHIP AND 2 DAYS AT PORT. 4 days being stuck on a boat just drove us crazy!You can only gamble and eat so much. Royal had the audacity to give us a lousy $18.45 credit for not stopping at Coco Cay!We are not interested in bingo or shopping seminars and the pools are always so crowded you don't even want to go.
