Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas Cruise Reviews for Family to the Western Caribbean

Service We always have excellent service from room stewards, dining room staff, and other crew members on Royal Caribbean. They are friendly and leave a genuine impression that they are trying to give you a great vacation experience. We had only one miscommunication regarding changing our dining time, which they were able to fix without any issue. Some of the crew doesn't speak the very best ...

Without going into a lengthy explanation here are the higlights: 1. The food was horrible in every restaurant except Izumi and CHOPS (those cost extra). We had mold and hair in our food on 4 ocassions, cold food, wrong order, someone else's food, food so cold hollandaise sause was solid like an omelet, uneatable food and appetizers brought after dinner to say the least. 2. The ship is ...

We chose this cruise because it was long enough to relax and was within our budget. We loved it all. The food was better than we expected. The service crew was better than we expected. The ship was better than we expected. We spend more money than expected because the jewelry was great too. We'll do it again soon. We will probably go on a different ship next time just to see what the ...

This was a last minute planned cruise to celebrate a special occasion. We cruised 10 times with RCI since 2006, the last 3 times we cruised in 2017, 2019, 2021 we though that it would be the last cruise with Royal, we are of the same opinion after this cruise. Because it was a last minute and a holiday cruise, all our preferred cruise lines were sold out, so we booked Explorer. It was a very ...

After an awful cruise on Oasis of the Seas we were looking forward as a family to go onto Explorer of the Seas. One of the main reasons for choosing this ship was the flowrider and after being promised that it had been fixed prior to our sailing once onboard found out it was still broken.(needed a new pump) The sports team were fantastic and once fixed the following evening kept it open ...

Considering the low cost we paid for this sailing I was not sure what to expect. Wow what a truly wonderful week. I enjoyed every moment. It was full Royal Caribbean to the max. The crew were amazing, we walked directly into the MDR no wait. Chops and Giovanni's we're amazing and I was very happy with the MDR and Windjammer. Entertainment was excellent as always. We loved this ship so much we're ...

I choose this cruise because of the destinations the price and the dates. I had an inside cabin for 3 people. I was surprised on how spacious it was which included a sofa. I had the unlimited dinning package and the food of each of the specialty restaurants was great. Embarkation was fast and painless, also leaving the ship on the last date. Notice that I carry my own luggage. There were ...

Here’s my review of our cruise on Explorer. We sailed from Miami (Terminal G) from July 3-9. Fast facts: • We stayed in an Owner’s Suite (cabin 1292 on Deck 10). • This was our 4th RC cruise: 2 on Symphony, 1 on Brilliance, then this. We went from Platinum to Emerald on this cruise, and will go to Diamond after our planned November cruise on Symphony. • We’re empty-nesters, so no ...

A/c in the cabinets not working , we could sleep comfortly, we were hot. The also the cooler did not keep our water cold, also under the bed it was clean, they just clean around it. Actvities on the ship were boring, specialty the comedy shows. Pool activities were fun. STAFF ON THE SHIP VERY GOOD The ship it kind of old, and the pools were super small. Our perfect day in coco cay was ...

The cruise: I am giving the Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas Experience a C-. This is why: The food was basic and unflavorable. I don’t think that is a word, but they need to adjust seasonings and flavorings. The deserts offered in the Windjammer where the buffet is served, all tasted the same: sponge cake with shipped filling; small cups of whipped toping and a fruit topping, cookies were ...
