Disappointing First Cruise with RC

I will say upfront we have been on five cruises with Disney Cruise line through our vacation club membership. We decided to do an week on Royal due to the recommendations of others and the overall excellent ratings. It was sadly a disappointment. Getting on and off the boat was fine (we did bring our own luggage so no waiting) We had no major issues with the ship. Overall it was clean and in good ...

Went on this ship to celebrate a birthday and Halloween. It was an amazing experience on Halloween. Many of the passengers had their costumes and participated on the promenade parade. We had an incredible time worth of the money spent for this cruise. My complaints about this particular cruise are as follows: 1. RCCL has become to stingy with the food and it tends to repeat the menu too ...

With more than 30 cruises behind us, this was one of the top five overall. Simply put we had great overall service from our room steward to our waiter and asst. waiter. Our head waiter went above and beyond what she had to to make our cruise a very nice memory. We met lots of friendly people on this cruise, including the cruise critic get together and the cabin crawl. There was lots of sun to be ...

We had a wonderful cruise. The staff is so friendly and helpful. There are events for everyone. The ports of call were beautiful. The Love and Marriage game show is a must see. The Backstreet Boys were hilarious. The staff in the dining room was so wonderful. They left nothing out. The food was superb. We didn't eat in any of the specialty restaurants because the dining room was special ...

We hadn't been on an RCI ship in 15 years, and our expectations were high, yet tempered after a recent Carnival cruise. Overall the cruise was excellent and we highly recommend RCI and Freedom. She's become our favorite ship. The ship is just gorgeous, clean and well decorated, very easy to get around, and as big as Freedom is, she didn't feel that way. Plenty of areas all around to ...

We were trying to reach our diamond plus so we booked a junior suite. Wow what a great surprise when we entered our cabin. It was spacious. We had a Queen size bed, sofa and lounge with ottoman. Plus a walk in closet. Enough space to spread out and relax. Then when we opened the door to the balcony, wow, 2 chaise lounges plus 2 chairs & table. We've had Jr. Suites before but this one was really ...

Overall, the cruise was very enjoyable and definitely geared towards families with young children although there were areas reserved for adults only. Throughout the cruise there were scheduled picture opportunities with the DreamWorks characters. However, they were short - probably about 15 minutes each - sometimes a single character and sometimes multiple which some kids were not able to be ...

Very Poor Introduction to Royal Caribbean

My wife and I took a last minute cruise earlier this year. At $79. pp for an inside room, it was just too good to pass up. After boarding, we quickly discovered this was a "leftover" cruise as the ship was about to go into dry dock. A couple of the clubs were already closed and renovation had begun. Most bars were very low on stock. One bar we went to (inside) only had Bud Light. Several ...

First and foremost, our family are Disney Cruise line loyalists! Still kicking myself for going on this cruise but it was only for 2 days and was cheap.Getting onboard took 3 hrs...this is just unheard of....Asked multiple staff what the problem was and each person stated something totally different (got to port late, problems with the ships computer systems, escalator broke down in port, ship ...

I booked this with my family, parents and mother-in-law for a 2 day out of Port Canaveral. Apparently the propeller on FOS had been out for a month yet I received no email letting me know this (with the opportunity to reschedule/cancel) and boarding turned out to be a disaster. We waited in line at port in the heat for 2+ hours. We got to the 'front' of the building where they had locked the door ...
