Had a pretty good time, but wouldn't pick this ship again
"I understand there are going to be kids on cruises, but don't advertise an adults-only area if you don't, in practice, have an adults-only area.Also, there's an area called the "solarium" that's meant to be adults-only, but there was no enforcement whatsoever of that supposed rule...."Read More

I was in an ocean view First the good: The crew were fabulous. Attentive, friendly, extremely skilled and eager to please. I can't say enough good about all of my interactions with them all. The "Chef's Table" was superb. I always book this experience whenever I cruise Royal and I was not disappointed. The food was, as always, great, the ambiance was first rate and again, the staff were ...

Not a great RCL experience, surprisingly

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

We have cruised over 23 times in 43 years, often selecting Royal Caribbean because we had been so pleased with our previous experiences. Well, maybe we are just cruised out but our last cruise on the Vision out of Baltimore was at best, mediocre. The food in the Windjammer was less in selection, too many highly spiced dishes, and often cold or Luke warm. The main dining room just seemed to ...

We got a good price of $399.00 per person. I woke up with projectile vomiting the first night after the prime rib. There are no bargains insofar as shopping is concerned; rudest witch ever in FACETS, the jewelry store. I guess she gave a "good interview" to get hired. I will give thanks to Jaime in guest services for finding gingerale for me. Thanks to Marko for helping me as well. Thanks to ...

There's casual, and then there's whatever this trip was. I won't be sailing Royal again.

The best way I can describe it is thinking you were going out for dinner and drinks at an upscale restaurant, and then winding up at applebees. My other frustration was skipping Bermuda because of the hurricane. Obviously weather cannot be controlled and safety always comes first. However, we were supposed to have an overnight stay at a beautiful island....and instead they stopped at port ...

This was my first cruise since about age 19 and my partner's first cruise ever, we wanted to give cruising a try so we opted for something inexpensive leaving from a port within driving distance. We knew that this was not the fanciest or newest ship, so we had measured expectations. With that considered, we're laid-back people who didn't let the little issues bother us, so we had a good time and ...

I chose this cruise as a way to see how much my new medical problem would affect my having fun. As it turned out, it basically had no negative effect on what I could do, so I'm good for the future! Embarkation went very well. This particular ship's lay out was mostly easy to navigate. My inside cabin was quite stark in appearance, but since I only use it for sleeping, it was no big deal. The ...

We have been on this ship many times and it was always our favorite Vision class ship. Much has been written about the cutbacks in service and quality and this proved to be the case on this cruise. The first day we decided after visiting the Windjammer buffet that we would take all of our dinners in the main dining room. We have not done this for years, usually alternating between the WJ and ...

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

The Caribbean ports were all as expected. We arrived on time each day and the ship was quickly made ready for us to disembark. The ship in general is old and tired. Some carpeting is badly in need of a change, especially by some of the rooms. Some hallways had sewage smell which detracted from the experience. The ship is generally understaffed. Meal service was slow because the staff ...

My partner and I needed a break from the weather and the 10 day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean seemed like a great solution. We drove to Ft. Lauderdale and parked in the port garage. It did not seem worth the savings to use one of the off-site parking places. We had heard of problems at some of them with shuttle waits and other issues. I am a Diamond level RCCL cruiser and my partner was on ...

We are Diamond Plus cruisers with RC and this is our first cruise with RC since the pandemic. We chose this cruise based on the itinerary and low price. The stateroom service was great, the bar service was great and the overall service was very good across the ship. The service in the dining room was ok, but still slow at times. The ship is showing its age, but overall it's well maintained and ...
