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.

We chose this cruise to Bermuda for its location and not having to take a flight to the pier. We had one person who was a full time wheelchair user. Embarkment was easy and quick. That was the only thing that was quick for a wheelchair user. The elevators were always full and no one would offer to make room for the person on the wheelchair when they were perfectly able to use the stairs. The food ...
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 ...
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 ...
Our cruise took us to Bermuda leaving from Cape Liberty, NJ. Getting on the ship was a smooth organized process. The Windjammer was so busy, all the time and probably had only a 25% ratio to accommodate the passengers. We opted the first and second days while at sea for lunch at Chops which was very good and the service was great! Once we got to our room I was definitely disappointed in our ...
I chose this cruise line because it was based out of New Jersey, price was reasonable and we sailed to Bermuda. Well for starters, for the food at the WynnJammer was buffet style 4 out of 10. The dinner was ok, and that was only due to the Optimal service from Ruel and Jeanese. Next. The cabin, bed was as hard as an ironing board(cot), towels stained and the carpets in and out of the rooms ...
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 ...
