NOOOOOO! Don’t do it.

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Icon of the Seas

Jack Callahan
10+ Cruises • Age 40s

Literally never again. Great amenities for the 50% of the cruise that can use them. Everything is broke. Phones. The wizard of Oz show. Slots. The coke machine. Kids club was an absolute nightmare. Waitstaff in the dining halls are great. That’s ready where it stops. Shows are ALL, I repeat ALL, standing room only. If you don’t book 60+ days in advance you’re hosed. We did, ...

Solid experience

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Utopia of the Seas

6-10 Cruises • Age 40s

Four night cruise in late September / early October 2024. All around, I really enjoyed this experience. Some accolades: - The ship itself is so well done. Gorgeous design, everything prestine. - WiFi was absolutely perfect. High speed, easy to connect, and completely reliable service. - I sincerely disagree with the reviews that rate the food as poor. My extra pay highlights were ...

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Mariner of the Seas

2-5 Cruises • Age 30s

I sailed recently, this being my 4th RC cruise and 3rd on the Voyager class ship. Mariner was impressive throughout the entire time! The staff might be some of the best in the RC family each member went above and beyond to help. The beds were comfy, I did call ahead and request a mattress topper and between 2 rooms on floor 6 and 10 both rooms stayed quite cool. The food in the MDR was great the ...

One and Done

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Utopia of the Seas

PFDSOTM
2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

We are not cruisers, however, we live near Port Canaveral so we decided to take a four day cruise on Utopia. This was our third cruise as a couple. Overall, our experience was ok, but it will be a one and done for us. It was as if we were on a perpetual Disney property at sea. We are land resort people and much prefer the overall experience at a resort versus an overcrowded, sold out venue, up ...

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Utopia of the Seas

Emilyyy
First Time Cruiser • Age 20s

I had an amazing cruise on utopia of the seas so far! I’m on the last day of our vacation right now and i am just so grateful for the opportunity to be away from home and relax. We were hit by the hurricane in south carolina and slept in our car for two days before this cruise. Waited in line at the only open gas station at home for 3 and a half hours for gas to get to the port and it was so worth ...

Not as "family friendly" as we hoped

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Harmony of the Seas

Jestyr2000
10+ Cruises • Age 40s

Disclosure: our most recent family cruises have been on Disney, so we have that experience to compare to. Our family of four (kids 13 and 10) did not love this cruise. There was nothing "wrong" with the cruise, it just left us wanting for a different experience. Great Things - The ship is impressive. It's huge and has a large variety of things to do. - The crew are wonderful. - ...

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Freedom of the Seas

Resprigator
2-5 Cruises • Age 20s

Everything was great except the scheduling of activities. Signed up for volleyball and it was cancelled for another event even though it was scheduled on the app. My whole family was excited for this event. We showed up fifteen minutes early only for them to tell us it was cancelled for soccer. They told us we would have to wait an hour to play. When it finally was time to play, it ended up just ...

Worst experience! Avoid the scam gratuity theft!

Review for a Alaska Cruise on Radiance of the Seas

Avoid Royal Caribbean
6-10 Cruises • Age 40s

Firstly - Please be aware that they charge $18 per day per person in gratuity! Apparently it's in the small print but I missed it and conveniently our onboard account didn't update until after we'd left the ship so they won't reverse the charge. If you're not happy with having this gratuity forced on you, you can ask for it to be removed by going to Guest Services but unfortunately we found out ...

Fantastic experience

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Allure of the Seas

Kirenia Zayas
First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

Amazing cruise. The attention super profesional and friendly. My assistant from cabinet Mr Carlton were impressed by his kindness and dedication to his work, always attentive to what we needed and guiding us when we were lost. I recommend Allure of the seas 100%. The installations with the impresively luxury. The food was very varied and delicious. All the facilities were very nice and tasteful. ...

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Utopia of the Seas

PenzRY1
10+ Cruises • Age 30s

I’ve been on 9 Royal Caribbean cruises and 20+. This is my last one. The entire ship and cruise can be summed up in one word: disappointing. There wasn’t one single thing that made it the worse cruise ever, just a series of disappointments. If this had been my first RC cruise, it would have been fine, but I have been on other Oasis class ships and this one being only a couple months old cannot ...
