This was my 18th RCCL cruise. This ship did not meet my previous experiences. The food was booring and never served hot. RCCL was always known for their beef and this was not up to there standards. The service in the dining room was slow. The head waiter is now the wine steward and we waited 45 minutes for our order to be taken because he was busy serving the wine to his three tables. The assistant waiter was more intent on serving the bread from his basket than serving water or helping the waiter. The staff was never very helpful and it seemed as if there were not enough staff to accommadate all the passengers. The ship was very untidy--there were always bar glasses and dishes lying aroung.

The rules for the adult only areas ie. The solarium pool always had young children in the pool. At night there were numerous teens running about til all hours of the morning. More activities should have been planned for them.

On the positive side, the entertainment was very good. The New Years eve party was a blast-- very well done for all ages.

I know RCCL now has many ships and do hope that their standards are not slipping.

Cruise reviews can be extremely helpful to new and experienced cruisers by giving the cruise vacation consumer's view of various RCCL ships and ports. If you've sailed aboard an RCCL ship, we hope you'll write and tell us about it by using our special form here.  Sincere thanks to those who take the time to do this so that others can have the benefit of shared information and experiences.
