Royal Caribbean Rome (Civitavecchia) Cruise Reviews

While it is not one of the best cruises I’ve experienced, as the room was not as clean as it appears. The wifi was expensive, you have to pay 100$ for unlimited soft drinks, The service was excellent. So many members in the cruise made us feel welcomed, appreciated and cared for. Now I can’t list down all of the crew members but ernesto and sarvesh and cleon the waiters, and safiya the janitor ...

My husband and I were on the Odyssey of the Seas for a Greek Island cruise. The cruise left Rome and ports included Santorini, Kusadasi (Turkey), Mykonos, and Naples. A few insights: - Cabin - we used Royal Up to move to a Grand Suite from a Jr Suite. The room was clean and spacious. Pretty high tech too compared to previous cruises since we had touchscreen controls with preset scenes for the ...

The cruise is a great way to see some of the islands of Greece, and also knock out a Rome visit at the same time. First, if you're flying into Rome, please be advised that the port is about an hour away. Also, we had some difficultly at the airport, not sure if it was normal or the service was just bad. You can take a car or train to the port terminal, but be advised that if you take the train, ...

I’ve done the Allure of the Seas a couple years back, and it was a great experience. I don’t know what happened to Royal Caribbean since then, but this experience on the Odyssey of the Seas was awful. First off, you need to buy packages for EVERYTHING. You’d think that just because you paid thousands of dollars you could get free soda or fresh OJ.. Well think again! You have to buy a soda package ...

Sailed on SOS for the Western Mediterranean and boarded in Rome at the end of June. This was our first mega class ship. We loved the ship but also love the smaller ships and sail mostly for the destinations. The ship is organized, beautiful, and everyone is working hard around the clock. There are a lot of families with young kids and teenagers. If this isn't what you want, I would pick another ...

We are experienced cruisers just returning from number 25 and the last ten were on Princess, so I will be making a few comparisons in my review. The ship is beautiful at two years old with no wear and tear to be found. The decor is much more vibrant than Princess with very colorful fixtures on the pool deck such as yellow palm trees and cabanas. There is a kiddie pool right in the same area ...

This cruise had the worse quarters for comfort as the beds were rock hard and the sofa was also so hard you couldn’t sit on it for any length of time. The food was plentiful at the buffet but it was of poor quality. The main dining hall meals were also sub par as the steaks were tough and the other meals were just fair. If you want to eat a lot of food all day and do not care about its quality, ...

This is our forth transatlantic so we know what to expect. From day one there have been uncalled for and primarily unapologetic things that have gone wrong. It was a back to back and on the second leg they kept us in the theater 3 hours because they couldn’t find the new sea pass cards. Management was very unaccomidating in the dining room. They were short staffed and would not combine a table of ...

This was our second Royal Caribbean Transatlantic crossing and what a contrast. Our 2018 trip was a real pleasure. This November 2022 cruise was plagued by mistakes. Almost every day there were last minute changes, conflicting and often duplicate scheduling of events on the ship. Repeatedly, crew made no seating or staging preparations for events. The Cruise Campus was a mess. Examples: Oe ...

We took this T/A RCL cruise because the price was unbeatable and because we got our Celebrity T/A cruise for the same period from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro cancelled. I am a Celebrity/Hal guy where I think the food are the best and they are the one keeping the real idea of cruising. RCL strives to isolate you from the sea, there is not even a place/table/bar/resto to sit and drink or eat outside ...
