We recently celebrated my husband's retirement by taking a 7 day cruise on the Harmony of the Seas. Our itinerary included the Eastern Caribbean destinations of Nassau, Bahamas, Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, and Basseterre, St. Kitts. We had two adjacent oceanfront balcony rooms on the 8th deck, and our rooms were toward the front of the ship. The cabin steward did an excellent job of keeping ...
I wanted to try one of the mega boats as my previous experiences have been with mid-large sized boats. I've cruised with Carnival, Celebrity, HAL, NCL, Princess and RCI and have mild expectations but RCI was a terrible disappointment for food (free and specialty dining), easily worse of any cruiseline I've been on.

There were many factors that were not pleasing. As a first time cruse for me and my wife, I think we will try another cruse line for our next trip. Royal Caribbean was recommended to us by friends, and we lack the experience to compare, but it wasn't what we expected. 1). Our room smelled terrible when we first arrived. 2). Since we travelled alone we relied mainly on the photographers to take our ...
We choose this cruise because it was a short trip to Bahama's, convenience including weekends.
-cabin in bad condition, old cabinet with no working hinges of doors.
-the refrigerator doesn't work, when we ask: " why the refrigerator warm, instead be cold?",room service guy answered refrigerator for not for cold, just for "chilled "...come on, for cruise cost over thousand dollars for two ...
The inside of the ship was very clean and the majority of the staff was outstanding. Our cabin was kept very clean with fresh towels and ice delivered every day. The food in the main dining room was very good and the quality of food at the Windjammer was above average. As with other cruise lines, the bar/waiter staff on the pool deck is relentless. Most people want to spend their time by the ...
We chose this cruise for my husband, myself and our 10 year old son. We had heard some great things about Adventure Ocean and were excited for our son to have some fun on his own so that my husband and I could have some time together. This cruise definately had some pros and cons.
We originally booked a stateroom with a balcony but were contaced by Royal Caribbean to upgrade to a Jr. Suite ...
We choose RCCL because of our loyalty for each other.
This cruise was an introduction to our grandchildren. I felt comfortable with the “safe” destinations especially the private island of Coco Cay.
Our grandchildren are 16 yrs and 14 yrs old. They enjoyed the teen program which gave my husband and I time for ourselves also.
Service in the formal dining room was great. Linen tablecloths ...
My husband and I really chose this cruise because due to work we had to choose our dates and THEN our cruise. Luckily it was between Norwegian and Royal Caribbean and we chose Royal due to better reviews. I am very glad we did, as we had a wonderful time. Entertainment was really good, food was delicious, and service was exceptional. I didn’t give 5 stars for a few reasons, none of which were trip ...
I was a little worried when we booked this cruise because I couldn't find any recent reviews and most reviews only talked about how dated the ship looked. I shouldn't have worried. The cruise was wonderful! We had a great time! We chose this cruise so that we could spend a couple of nights at the Universal theme parks before we left and so that we could stop in the Bahamas because we have not ...
We were excited to sail on this ship so soon after the renovation. The ship itself is amazing! The activities would take at least a 7 night cruise to do them all. It is a fantastic choice for families with kids.
- The service was lacking. Another guest had told us that this crew is used to serving the Asian market where the crew doesn’t talk with the guests as much as in the US. I’m not sure if ...
