Lovely relaxing cruise

This was our second RC cruise and although Vision of the Seas is a much smaller ship than we cruised on before it had many features that we preferred. The pool area was less busy and there was no bum fights for sun beds as before. With fewer passengers the bar areas and restaurants were less busy. It is not really a cruise liner for teenagers (luckily we didn't take ours this time) and the ...

Choose this cruise instead of going to the Caribbean as we were worried about zigs virus We had a couple of days in Dubai before the cruise which we would definately recommend The ship was smaller than our usual choice but we liked it,we had a balcony cabin 7022 which was nice although we didn't use the balcony very much,our fantastic cabin attendant kept it very clean and comfortable well ...

We chose this cruise for a winter break,but was a little apprehensive due to negative feedback we read before leaving. We have been with Royal Carribean before and knew what level of service is offered,well we were not dissapointed. The staff and service were amazing only encountered a couple that were not so helpful on the customer service desk apart from that the staff fall over themselves ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was our first cruise so I cannot compare it with other cruises but overall we had a good experience. Our youngest child had difficulty going to the kids club and the staff did not have much patience for him, so at times it was difficult to find anything else for him to do on the ship. He spent a lot of time watching TV when we were at sea! Our other kids loved the kids club and wanted to ...

Check in was a breeze. It must have only taken 20 minutes. We had a large Ocean view on Deck 4 and this was perfect. There were no vibrations and you couldn't hear next door either! This is a nice size ship and has good amenities. It was difficult to find a sunbed on the sea day. All the food was good. We ate in the main dining room every night. It was getting wraps from the Deli in the ...

Normally I don't cruise around Christmas time. The prices are too high. But this offer was unbelievable. The prices startet at 299 € per person. We had a nice veranda cabin midships. Big enough for one week. I had no great dining exportations. What could you expect at this low prices? But ist was great. For breackfast I only need some "muesli", fruits and a cup of tea or coffee. Some vegetables ...

The ship itself was very good but as reviewed before the dress code was very poor and I remember one night in the top restaurant the guy at the next table had T shirt shorts and thongs on and this was when the advertised dress for men was a minimum of a jacket. Getting on and off was no problem and there were never any long lines.The biggest problem was visiting India where it was $100 for a ...

I sailed the Dubai-Singapore leg of the inaugural (sorta) repositioning that brought Ovation from Southampton to Tianjin. So my experience was with a shiny new ship that was a real pleasure to behold at every corner. Royal Caribbean has put together a very appealing vessel, but still it often felt like, well, like I was on more of a budget cruise. Food is abundant, with plenty of options, but ...

We chose this cruise to discover cruising on a larger ship. To our amazement it was easy to get from A to B with wider pathways throughout. The decor is beautifully appointed with many "chill out" areas available in many nooks and crannies. Once we discovered how to make bookings for the dining rooms, our dining experience was excellent. However, there is a need to have information available ...

11 night cruise Dubai to Singapore. Stayed 3 nights in Dubai at the Intercontinental Festival city pre cruise which I would highly recommend. Embarkation at the Dubai terminal seemed a crazy mixup of disorganised chaos, however I can honestly say that it all worked fine for us. I have a mobility issue & the staff checked me in quickly & I was on board the ship within about a half hour. I did ...
