I chose the Celebrity Summit out of Bayonne because of the itinerary(Rhode Island, Martha's Vineyard, Charleston, and 2 days in Bermuda). I live in New York and I love sailing out of Bayonne. This was my second sailing with a celebrity(the first was on Beyond), I knew this was an older ship so my expectations were limited. I couldn't book my usual balcony so I was a little concerned about being in ...
We chose cruise because son and family had week off, requested us to join him and it was no fly for us, We made our reservations a couple of months before sailing date and were unable to secure early dining so relegated to anytime dining. And they would not take reservations so scheduling dinner each night with a 3 year old was a major annoyance. But we never had to wait more than 15 minutes. ...
Our 9 day cruise was much better then expected. We chose Summit because of the ports and we can drive to the terminal.
Embarkation- We arrived at the terminal around 11:30 for our noon boarding time, scanned boarding pass then walked onto the ship. The process took under 10 minutes.
Dining- We ate in the MDR 7 nights and the experience was very good. The food was well ...
Went on the 9 day Eastern Caribean cruise to Bermuda, Labadee, La Romana and Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. While the cruise was nice and we had good weather, there lacks the specialness of pre-pandemic cruising. Still had a good time but things could be better.
Pluses:
We had a balcony which is always the best way to go if you can afford it
Crew was always friendly with a ...
DH and I are in our mid 50s. We live in Pennsylvania. We have sailed on Voyager class before but this was our first time on Adventure, and this was our second cruise as Diamond Plus members. Royal Caribbean is the only line we have sailed on. We have been to Bermuda several times before.
This was a casino comped cruise which we booked in June. We combined two interior offers for an ocean ...
September 24th, 2022 we boarded Adventure of the seas from Bayonne NJ. Embarkation was a breeze, easiest boarding I've ever had. Debarkation was great also. They have really streamlined the whole process.
I had cabin on deck 12. Spacious oceanview cabin. It was spectacular! Great size overall, plenty of storage, bathroom was standard. Room attended was fantastic. The bed was flat and ...
We had a wonderful vacation on Adventure of the Seas to Bermuda in balcony cabin 7644 that was perfect for our needs. The ship was very clean and tastefully decorated. We enjoyed deck five with its Main Street feel of shops, bars, etc. The cabin was nicely decorated, immaculate and we had wonderful service every day. There was more than enough storage, the beds were comfortable, the shower was ...
we bought the dinning package you could not make reservations until you got on the ship and connected to internet that took an hour, by the time we were able to do that there were no spots available we literally had to beg for a time and it was late we went to guest services and they pretty much said o well not happy at all. We did eat in main dinning room one time for lunch the crew was ...
My cruise in one word ... Disappointing.
Royal Caribbean is our "go-to" cruise line. But, this cruise may change that mindset
Our cabin was in need of up-dating. There were stains on the furniture. The carpet was worn, and stained. The refrigerator was dirty and sticky inside. There was a large crack in the shower door.
The Windjammer was bland, and seemed to be concentrated on ...
I have been on RCCL at least 10 times and have observed that over the last 5-6 years the quality of service in the MDR has declined. I was on Adventure in June and the service and quality of food in the MDR was better than this time just 3 months later. Their roasted potatoes are tiny taters now!
The ship is showing it age. It was scheduled for refurbish and AMP Up 2 years ago during COVID ...
