I was in an ocean view
First the good:
The crew were fabulous. Attentive, friendly, extremely skilled and eager to please. I can't say enough good about all of my interactions with them all.
The "Chef's Table" was superb. I always book this experience whenever I cruise Royal and I was not disappointed. The food was, as always, great, the ambiance was first rate and again, the staff were ...
We have cruised over 23 times in 43 years, often selecting Royal Caribbean because we had been so pleased with our previous experiences. Well, maybe we are just cruised out but our last cruise on the Vision out of Baltimore was at best, mediocre. The food in the Windjammer was less in selection, too many highly spiced dishes, and often cold or Luke warm. The main dining room just seemed to ...
We got a good price of $399.00 per person. I woke up with projectile vomiting the first night after the prime rib. There are no bargains insofar as shopping is concerned; rudest witch ever in FACETS, the jewelry store. I guess she gave a "good interview" to get hired. I will give thanks to Jaime in guest services for finding gingerale for me. Thanks to Marko for helping me as well. Thanks to ...
The best way I can describe it is thinking you were going out for dinner and drinks at an upscale restaurant, and then winding up at applebees. My other frustration was skipping Bermuda because of the hurricane. Obviously weather cannot be controlled and safety always comes first. However, we were supposed to have an overnight stay at a beautiful island....and instead they stopped at port ...
The crew is fantastic as always, especially the concierge Sukriti Rai, Sue. She is super nice and will help you with any concerns. I have always had a good experience with the crew. The itinerary was nice seeing New England. Used the hop on hop off bus in Boston, while good, it was a long trip back to ship of about 2 or more hours, so know that. You can use Uber most everywhere if you don't ...
This was my first cruise since about age 19 and my partner's first cruise ever, we wanted to give cruising a try so we opted for something inexpensive leaving from a port within driving distance. We knew that this was not the fanciest or newest ship, so we had measured expectations. With that considered, we're laid-back people who didn't let the little issues bother us, so we had a good time and ...
This was a five day trip Baltimore to Bermuda and back. I thought I knew exactly what I was getting into as I had taken the same trip twice before, one and five years ago. Sadly, due mainly to the food, the trip was an expensive disappointment.
A) The boat: Vision of the seas seemed to be in good condition. Somewhat worn, but not in bad shape. The boat was clean.
B) Room service: our ...
We have cruised on big and little ships and our favorite was Enchantment out of Baltimore, we just loved it. I had hoped Vision would be similar - it is a sister ship in size. Somehow Vision lacked the elegance of Enchantment, and maybe the changes to the menu - both in the dining room and Windjammer - made it feel less. First, it was the most crowded ship we've ever been on. Maybe because it was ...
I chose this cruise as a way to see how much my new medical problem would affect my having fun. As it turned out, it basically had no negative effect on what I could do, so I'm good for the future!
Embarkation went very well. This particular ship's lay out was mostly easy to navigate. My inside cabin was quite stark in appearance, but since I only use it for sleeping, it was no big deal. The ...
We had always heard Royal Caribbean was the top of the line when it came to cruise ships. So, we decided, this time, to try one. It was a nice cruise but definitely not a step up from Celebrity or Norwegian. The little things were missing, not many dining venues were offered, requests for dining time changes were frowned upon (and actually made us feel awkward — we were a party of only 2!),…We ...
