Not what we were expecting

Review for Independence of the Seas to Bahamas

Our son had us try Royal Caribbean because we are avid Carnival Cruisers. We were not impressed with the food, or service on this cruise. Not only were wait staff not friendly most were very rude to us and we watched them be rude to others. Even tipping good did not change their demeanor. Everything is extra on this ship. Toddlers could not play with older siblings in the water park and ...

Not so wonderful

Will not cruise a large ship again. We have done all the Oasis class ships but this wasn't as good. Food cold, overcooked and lack of choices. Good luck getting hot eggs for breakfast. Dining room staff was good, food not so much. Steakhouse was good. Bar service terrible because lack of staff. Shows we're good. Probably the only things that saved the cruise. Got to St Thomas took a taxi into ...

Skip this outdated ship

Review for Jewel of the Seas to Caribbean - Eastern

From the outdated tvs to the bad attitude of staff, we found this ship to be one annoyance to another. The casino seemed like a rip off. I’m not sure I saw one person win anything in that casino. Folks were sitting at tables and just giving there money away. At one point I saw the blackjack dealer hit 6 blacks in a row and didn’t bust for half an hour. Very suspect. Don’t play here. The food ...

We decided we really wanted to see what the hype was when it came to Royal and the amazing things we’ve heard from fellow cruisers and online research, boy was it a let down. For a ship this size, it has the smallest venues for restaurants and bars! We’ve been on smaller boats that have had larger venues and water view restaurants. All most all the restaurants don’t have views of the water so ...

Baltimore to the Bahamas

Review for Enchantment of the Seas to Bahamas

This cruise was pretty inexpensive compared to other Royal Caribbean cruises. The ship was well kept along with great service from the crew. It didn’t seem there was a lot to do in the Bahamas, Grand Bahamas was a little shallow on activities unless you like water activities. Bimini also the same, the best island was Coco Cay which is a day on the beach, sandwich bites from food shacks, a large ...

Review for Navigator of the Seas to Mexican Riviera

It's been 4 years since we last cruised on the sister ship to The Navigator of the Seas. Covid pretty much dictated our schedule for the last 3 years. Now, we saw an opportunity to set sail again. We tried last September, but a Covid outbreak pushed the schedule back until this April. Prior to the cruise we signed up for the KEY program as well as the Refreshment package. The KEY allowed us to ...

We chose this cruise with a group total of 18. This was all of our first time on any RC line. First off, the ship is very nice, I love the layout and how there is plenty of space to hang out by the pools, walk the promenade, etc. There was plenty of activities to entertain both the adults and kids, too. 98% of the staff we encountered was extremely friendly and helpful, even with being ...

An Excellent Cruise with a Couple of Flaws

Review for Symphony of the Seas to Europe - Western Mediterranean

6-10 Cruises • Age 50s

My wife and I just returned from a week long cruise on the Symphony of the Seas out of Barcelona. We stayed in the 1 bedroom Aqua Suite (Sky class suite), my thoughts are detailed below: Embarkation - absolutely amazing. Perhaps it was because we were in Suite Class or maybe RC has just really improved this since I first cruised with them, but we go onto the ship in about 5 minutes after ...

Royal Genie Allan is nothing short of amazing! We were lucky enough to enjoy his company on our recent cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the seas. Everything from the delicious food, to his wonderful service, was top notch. He truly went above and beyond in helping us plan our days on board and shared a wealth of knowledge about the ship, its culture and its fantastic destinations. He ...
