We have done many cruises but this was our first with Royal Caribbean. Covid kind of put a damper on my husbands birthday for the last 3 years so we decided to take a cruise on his actual Birthday with our friends. Royal had just started sailing out of LA and it was great to be able to hop on the ship 40 minutes from home.
Our group consisted of 21 people - 7 of them close friends. Everyone got a balcony state room but hubby insisted on a Suite so I booked the Grand Suite. It was awesome.
We did not get the alcohol package - Royal's pricing is to very high for the alcohol package - but we did get free alcohol in the Suite Lounge every evening - so it was fine for us.
This was an amazing cabin with a large balcony - wish we had more time to enjoy it. It was large enough for us to have our 7 friends over for a get together prior to dinner. The bathroom had a nice bathtub in it and the water flow in the shower was strong.
We would book this cabin again
Not much to see in this port.
