Went for a New Years cruise with extended family. Chose this ship because it included New Year in its intinary. First impressions were pretty good , but everything on thr ship is so expensive and the service just doesnt match other cruise lines. I upgraded to a Junior Suite but didnt get te cabin dservice I expected. I tipped early thinking that I would receive a good cabin service but found this ...
This was a New Years cruise. New years eve is the premium day of the premium cruise of the year. I would be ashamed to put out the dining room menu that was offered. You can look it up for yourself. You could have done as well in any diner. The service however was impeccable as if they were trying to cover up for a lousy product. At the current rate of decline, I would not be surprised to see ...
I have been on a fair amount of cruises
this was my first time on Royal Caribbean and I was very excited, this has been a Royal disappointment. This is the hottest boat I have ever been on, the AC cannot keep up with any of the rooms. I was sweating profusely the entire time.
The PA system in my room was broken, the tv was broken, the shower was dirty and rusted, they made me sign a contract ...
We love to cruise (mostly present w/ Royal Caribbean & Celebrity cruise). Our family of 6 have been sailed on Harmony OTS in 2018 and most recent on 12/24/2023 from Galveston, Tx.
We had so much issues while on board and the bad service from our stateroom as well. The rubber seal on the balcony sliding door came lose and the ocean wind howling all night long and we couldn’t sleep well. Call ...
This year we decided to take a Christmas cruise with our family and Oasis of the Seas seemed a good choice, but what a let down! As a diamond member I've cruised more than 15 times with RCL and never expected this regression, it seemed a Carnival Cruise but more expensive. At dinner you could barely move between tables since the ship had more than 6700 passengers and tables were added to fit all ...
My wife, son and I were spending Christmas with my daughter, son in law and granddaughter who live in California. We decided to do a short 4 day cruise from long beach to Mexico and back as a taster for my son in law who has never cruised before.
Embarkation was average, taking 30-45 minutes. Part of the process was the mandatory safety briefing which consisted of us visiting the 3 lifeboat ...
Quite literally the worst vacation I have been on. Our balcony door didn’t seal correctly and it took until the second night of the cruise for them to repair it correctly and stop the whistling. Their initial fix was to put tape over the seal which rendered the balcony useless. This was a non started since my wife gets sea sick on the first day of a sail and the fresh air from the balcony helps. ...
We have taken several cruises but this was the first time with Royal Caribbean and a lot of our friends had a lot of good things to say about Royal however it was not the case for us. We did a quick 4 night cruise out of Galveston.
We went in December which was also a first we typically go in summer. I can say Royal has the embarking and disembarking process down pack. It took us ~10min ...
The cruise was recommended by family. The countries of this cruise is where my family members live and it was the perfect choice to visit them. As for the service and condition of the ship Royal Caribbean, the vessel seem to be an older model. The smell of sewer in the living areas were unhealthy. Being in such closed spaces this can aid the spread of Covid and other respiratory conditions. The ...
I've been on about 6 or 7 cruises in my life and I've got to say this was the worst hands down. The staffing were rude and the food was sub-par. The air-conditioning didn't work half of the time and don't even think about taking a hot shower because then your cabin is going to feel like a sauna for the rest of the night. Then when the cruise was over the ship was not allowed to dock because of ...
