My son chose this cruise as a graduation trip, I was not sold on flying to San Juan, as we live in Florida, the cruising capital of the world,where many great ships call Florida home, boarding an older ship was not my choice, however my son mentioned the ship has been refurbished last year and had good reviews so my husband and I, as long as my daughter went along with his choice. We we also ...

This ship was the worse that I have ever been on. The food was always cold. Restaurant & Buffet. You could not get food anytime you want. They were always running out of ice. The ice cream was runny. They charge you for room service. This ship was very very boring. The Shore excursions were great. They didn't make animal towels every day. We will never ever go on this ship again. Do NOT ...

Took Jewel of the Seas on 7 night Southern Caribbean.
1. I have lactose and gluten intolerance. I understand it is very limited diet and difficult to meet my needs, so dinners had to be pre-order 24 hrs in advance. I was fine with that. Unfortunately, for entire week, as side dishes, I was served baked potatoes, steamed broccoli and carrots. In the end of the cruise I was very tired of baked ...

This cruise was planned well ahead of time, it was meant to be a happy family reunion and a 20th wedding anniversary celebration for my husband and me. I was leery of the ship, it's old and I wanted to experience a cruise on one of Royal Caribbean's fantastic new ships. But I was overruled by family members who were more concerned with the itinerary than the ship. I compromised and I'm sorry for ...

In short, our experience was quite disappointing, as a result of:
• Food poisoning
• the RCI "bureaucratic shuffle"
• Mediocre food quality
• “In-Your-Face” marketing of upscale restaurants
• Deferred maintenance, even though the boat recently returned from a drydock "facelift", and
• Mediocre to awful musical theater shows in the Coral Theater
Here are the details:
FOOD ...

We were talked into going on this cruise by friends. I have sailed 20+ times and my husband once before. This was to be our much awaited Honeymoon Cruise. Worst cruise and travel experience of my entire life and I've been all over the world. For the ship being remodeled early last year, not impressed. Some of the staff was friendly. Others not so much. Our room steward Imada rocked and probably ...
