I would recommend this ship for primarily adults. Not enough activities for children. However the service was excellent. This ship isn't that big, but it is comfortable. The fitness room had updated equipment for those who like to work out, while on vacation. They didn't have updated weights, but they did have cable machines. They had most of the common used machines you would find in the gym. ...
The staff on this ship was amazing. The food was excellent! 10/10 would recommend. We had two dinning room attendants that were excellent. The menu had a wide variety of classics and new things to try. The entertainment onboard was catered to people of all ages and interests. We enjoyed the wonderful dancer and singers who performed in the tropical theater. Particular the screen to stage ...
It has been 10+ years since I been to CoCo Cay as a teenager with the family, It is Amazing what Royal Caribbean has done to the island.
As for the ship itself, pretty nice one to catch out of Tampa, it has a little something for everyone for the most part.
Pros
+ Chops Grill was great, best steak I have had in a long time.
+ The pizza from the Windjammer was pretty good for buffet ...
Having sailed on Serenade of the Seas in February and having such a great time we decided to return to Serenade in May for my Birthday. We enjoyed this cruise even more than the one in February, the ship just keeps getting better and better! They have been painting exterior decks, installing new aft awnings, varnishing deck rails, honestly, the ship looks brand new. Ships interior is spotless, ...
We cruised on Serenade of the Seas out of Tampa, Florida, on a one week cruise where there were four destinations, all in the Bahamas: Grand Bahama Island, Coco Cay, Bimini and Nassau. The ship was fully booked as the cruise occurred during spreak break, so there were many families with children. We cruised with our son, daughter in law and three year old grandson. Our cabins were adjacent, ...
I chose this cruise because it was a unique itinerary going to Bimini and Grand Bahama and I love the Radiance Class and haven't sailed yet on Serenade. The crew were all very friendly and the ship had a new feel to it, very clean. Windjammer was better than expected, selection vast and prepared with tasty flavor. Dining room food and service were perfect, everything was served promptly and ...
Great parking through 241 by Global Airport Parking right across the street from the cruise terminal. Short wait outside terminal, once inside we walked right on the ship within 10 minutes. The ship is well maintained throughout. The crew were phenomenal, motivated, friendly, helpful. I was very impressed with the food in all dining areas. Food seemed extra good for example the bran muffins were ...
My sister and her hubby had chosen this cruise over a year ago and we thought it would be fun to join them for the 10 days. Our mom had passed in November and this was a way of celebrating her life. She loved cruising and margaritas so we signed up for the trip. We left our east coast Florida home on the 17th and spent the night in Ybor city about 3 miles from the cruise terminal. We chose ...
It was great cruising from Tampa as we are only a 15 min. drive from the port.
The ship and the junior suite we were in was much better than I expected. The junior suite was bigger and better than other RCCL ships we have been on. The ship was just refurbished in early 2022 and showed it.
The cabin attendant made sure that our three simple requests were met each day. The best was we told ...
Loved visiting all of the Bahamas ports. Bimini was a beautiful beach stop. Did the Jeep tour in Nassau and had a fun time. Food was great. Cruise director Jamie is a hoot! Loved the 70’s disco party. Ship is smaller than the mega ships but she’s beautiful and well maintained. We had the best service in the main dining room and a wonderful lunch at Izumi. Highly recommend Izumi and I don’t eat ...
