Royal Caribbean Eastern Caribbean Cruise Reviews

We are senior cruisers so we did not partake in a lot of the activities designed for youth and families. So what's so great? The elevator system stands out as a Hugh improvement. Very little waiting, mostly empty and many nonstop express rides all week. Entertainment: They brought the best musicians and singers from other ships. Good house band and an additional feature band called Legends ...

This was a great trip. The Jewel is one of the smaller ships but it was perfect for this intinerary because it was so port-heavy. I wouldn't reccomend getting the drink package on this one. It seems like a great idea at first but if you plan to leave the ship every day to visit the islands, it would be more economical to just buy your drinks individually. We chose this cruise because we've ...

From waterparks, bowling alleys, F1 simulators, ice skating rinks, swimming pools and everything in between there is a cruise ship for every member of the family. But what if there was one cruise ship that had it all, something for everyone. What if one cruise ship could be the ultimate vacation, no matter what you’re looking for? Enter Icon of the Seas, Royal Caribbeans new class of ship – an ...

A quick overview of Icon of the Seas from our Jan 20-23 preview sailing. Some background on us. Cruising nearly 20 years, have sailed on 10 cruise lines. We love all manner of ships from the Icons to the small 650 passenger vessels. Prior to Icon we've sailed Mariner and Symphony on Royal. From what we were told there were 4000 on our sailing and I can tell you the ship felt empty. This ship ...

Had a company cruise coming up, and my partner was unable to go, and I was informed I owed her a cruise. Well, fair enough, booked this one, and had a lovely time of it. I will say that the city of Miami is a bit expensive and all of our uber drivers got lost at least once, so that was odd, but the cruise itself was fantastic. While I don't recall his name, our steward was particularly great, ...

Our recent Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas cruise was an unforgettable journey, filled with thrilling excursions, cultural immersion, and the luxurious comforts of the ship itself. Every detail, from the attentive service to the exciting destinations, contributed to an incredible experience that exceeded my expectations. From the moment we stepped on board, the dedicated crew made us feel ...

We chose this cruise because we like the Radiance class ships and for the port intensive itinerary. Here is a recap of our cruise and final thoughts after returning. Recap & Final thoughts: Pre Cruise stay: 2 nights at Condado Ocean Club. Premium Oceanview room. We really liked this hotel. It was clean and the bed was amazingly comfortable. Staff was helpful and friendly. The view from ...

It's a good thing Royal is planning a new class of small ships as the Vision class is slowly wearing out. In the meantime, the secret weapon of Royal was displayed on this voyage - Exceptional Service - at every venue, every staffer, from Windjammer to MDM to Centrum, to including Guest Services. All of the staff in the Windjammer have been converted from table cleaners to friendly hosts ...

Let me start by saying I read all the reviews before we went on our cruise and I did have some concerns. My wife and I go on one cruise a year. We are just your normal couple, I am not looking for high class dining. We want nice meals, good shows, lots of options, great places to drink, time by the pool. After this cruise I can say that we were not disappointed in any of these areas. Let me ...

We were originally scheduled for February 2020 and again in 2021 but they were both cancelled due to COVID. Finally getting our itineraries together this time schedule worked perfectly. We enjoyed 99% of the trip. The staff was wonderful from customer service, room attendants, wait staff, spa personnel, and doctors all going out of their way to make it a joy. Great excursions and plenty to do ...
