The Vision is a pretty traditional RCCL ship. The layout is familiar. Boarding and Departing were incredibly easy. We rolled off our luggage ant the end, we had parked ($75) in Baltimore port. Muster drill is now mostly online, love that. The app is simply fantastic. It is a must have. The crew are friendly, hard working and efficient. The fellow cruisers were predominantly families, older ...
Baltimore to Bermuda and back on a 5 night cruise. It was my second cruise, and my husband's first. We won't be cruising again. It was not a good experience. I'll give you the good, the bad, and the ugly.
First the GOOD: The port at Baltimore is convenient and well run. Parking and embarkation were very easy. We did have The Key, so with priority boarding we didn't have a wait to get onboard. ...
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 ...
Overall it was a good cruise. A fair balance of port days (4) vs. days at sea (5). Food was always good (4/5), and service was exceptional (5/5). Embarkment and disembarkment were both smooth and extremely fast (ie. Only 20mins from our group’s calling on-board, down to our car at the port’s parking lot). The RC crew made it special, and memorable for my entire family (from our servers, to ...
We chose the specialty dining experience onboard, and spent most of our lunch and evening meals spread throughout Chops, Izumi, and Giovanni's. For us, it was important to escape the crowds and practice safer dining habits than found in the Windjammer, MDR, etc. We were well taken care of at every interaction in specialty dining, welcomed like family, and immediately recognized and treated with ...
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 ...
