Bayonne (Cape Liberty) to the Eastern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

The staff was phenomenal!! Our room attendant was so nice and caring and even gave us extra care. The food was so so good and the homemade bread at the main dinning room was so good!! I never had a bad meal even in the buffet. The servers were so sweet and always made sure you were well taken care of. I always felt safe on the cruise on the ship and off. All the staff greeted you with a smile even ...

I’m writing this review to correct what I think were some inappropriately negative reviews that left out a lot of good things about this ship. I’ve done over 50 cruises, about half of them with Royal. - This ship had the best gym of any ship I‘ve been on including Oasis and Allure. Just the presence of an Olympic bar adds a lot of value to the gym and the rest is very good too. - The ...

We don't like flying so this ship sails out of the NY area. The ship itself is starting to look a bit worn. Our Balcony cabin was very nice. Every time you called the front desk from our room there was always a few minute wait. This carried on though out the ship as it holds 4,600 guest and 1500 crew. Anywhere you went on the ship you were always bucking big crowds. Especially at dinner, we ...

I would really like to give 1.5 stars, so I bumped it up to 2. I was overall pretty disappointed with this cruise. I just felt it was really lacking, and quite honestly, I felt like I was on Carnival a good majority of the time. And it seems as though that was the crowd that RCCL may have been shooting for. Embarkation/Debarkation: One of not many positives, but easily the best experience ...

Embarkation was very smooth, one of quickest ever had. Cabins were not opened until 1:30 pm we were onboard before noon. Since you do not get your onboard cards until get to room you use your cabin number to charge drinks until then. Menus and most information all on RCL App with they tell you is mandatory to download before cruising. Pays to do it as speeds embarkation too. Yes you can cruise ...

This was my first cruise since 2019, and my 13th overall. While I was used to the newer ships in the fleet, most prominently, Anthem of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas has a good amount of the amenities and activities that Anthem had. Unlike the rest of my cruises, this was the first one I went on without my parents and above the drinking age. I went with a group of my friends from high school as a ...

This 9 night cruise has me very torn…first off, I’m still on the ship. We return tomorrow and I’m kind of cruised out. We had a great time but there are a few things that weren’t as expected. First off, this is my 5th RC cruise. My expectations were high as I’ve had such wonderful experiences on my past cruises. Getting on the ship in Bayonne was perfect. We arrived at the port at 10 am. ...

We were part of a group that selected this ship, and we knew it was an older ship refurbished once years ago. We were on deck 6 and I usually select deck 8 and higher so expecting alot of noise from Promenade on Deck 5. Onboarding in Bayonne very quick and Windjammer crowded but we always got a table for breakfast or lunch. Our room w balcony large, clean and bed comfortable. Sheets looked ...

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 ...

This marked our 50th cruise, many of which have been with Royal Caribbean. We went with a group of 20 people, 12 of whom were country line dancers. We left from Bayonne very excited to be going to the warm Caribbean. Embarkation went pretty smoothly except we had to go looking for our luggage down the hall and found someone else's luggage outside our stateroom. This was a first for us. Our ...
