Royal Caribbean Alaska Cruise Reviews

So I wanted to write this review because I hate to pay good money for a vacation and get treated so poorly. We sailed (Group of 10) on the ovation to Alaska. There were a large number of issues that I have never had to deal with. - Toilet paper was provided on day 3. - Bars were low on liquor (there were multiple bars that just didn't have certain drinks.) -The SPA was not ready to ...

We booked a Royal Caribbean Cruise Ovation of the Seas, under the condition to be granted a medical exemption to sail to one out of ten guests in our group. We do know the possibilities of a negative response, we do not expect from Royal to keep us waiting until 3 days before sailing to let us know, under the presumption that their are reviewing the documentation presented to them and will let us ...

We love traveling with Royal Caribbean but this was my mother and my worst cruise ever! Embarkation was a joke. Staff and customs started panicking because there were still 2 hours of people trying to get on the ship causing 2 hours behind leaving We were later told by a senior officer ship was only at 80% capacity meaning they were so short staffed. Those who were on the ship were young, ...

Food Windjammer buffet food inedible. All meat dishes w/ the exception of the roast were TOO SALTY. Buffet drove me to become a vegetarian. East Indian food is a favorite of my daughter. She left it on her plate. inedible. Pizza dry and had few toppings. The moment the MDR opened for breakfast and lunch we ate there. Still disappointed. Eggs Benidict fine, but cook not flexible. I ...

Booked this cruise as a last minute replacement for a Holland America cruise that kept getting changed... Looked like a great deal. Little did we know that the "great deal" meant poor food service and lack of many amenities. I have been on nearly a dozen cruises on various cruise lines, and if it weren't for the ports and scenery of Alaska, I would have asked for my money ...

I live in Vancouver. I wanted a cruise that I wouldn’t have to fly for and a nice ship with great amenities and cool things to do so I picked Ovation. I also loved that it was an 8 day sailing so I would get an extra day, little did I know I’d regret that! Embarkation was smooth, but from the people I met thru a group, half were asked for their Covid tests and half were not? Right off the ...

I chose this cruise because of price and cruise itinerary. When I booked I was told that the ship would not be sailing at full capacity. This was not true. The ship sailed at full capacity and you could tell as there was not enough crew. With the exception of Izumi and Jamie’s Italian, specialty restaurants, the food was horrible at best! Entertainment was the best thing that Ovation of ...

This was the WORST vacation experience of my life, by far. Let me preface that all the service providers on the ship were exemplary but honestly had their hands tied by the lack of management support. Any negative statement presented here is not aimed at the service staff. To set the stage. This was a bucket list trip for my father, turning 82 on the ship. MONTHS of planning went into this with ...

This is the first time I travelled on cruise booking into the Loft suite, departing from Singapore 13th Sept 2021 for 4D3N cruise to nowhere. Compared to my previous cruise experiences booked into balcony rooms, I was pretty disappointed with my Loft Suite experience. Other than the exclusive Coastal restaurant and lounge use, almost all other activities require queuing with no preferential ...

Wanted trip to Alaska, friends were going. Didn't realize how enormous ship was (meaning huge lines for the inadequate number of elevators, time-consuming just to travel to and from cabin to everything). On other cruises, I knew I was being squeezed for extra money--on this cruise, it felt like I was constantly being held up by my ankles and shaken for every last penny. The extra-cost Jamie ...
