We have cruised with Royal Caribbean exclusively for the last 17 years. We are currently on our 9th or 10th cruise (lost count). We are on symphony of the seas, sailed from NJ to the Bahamas. This will be most definitely our last cruise. The last time we sailed was in 2019. First the good is that the ship is absolutely beautiful, lots of activities, friendly staff, and excellent shows. We are a

We will miss you Allure. Our final cruise on the Allure before she moves to Miami began as usual with effortless embarkation and a hearty greeting from the crew. First stop, the Crown Lounge for coffee where we met ourhost. We then found our balcony cabin which was exactly, to the foot, halfway between elevators. The room was very clean and setup per RCL's excellent standards. Our room steward

Coming from someone who’s been on many RC please don’t go on Icon!!! Find a smaller nicer ship for less please hear me out.——-The Icon is way too big- grabbing a towel for ex is a 200 yard hike, elevator to room is same or more Way too crowded anywhere you go Is like a nightclub disgusting and Covid and such must be spreading like crazy/ I got it from icon/ Staff is very rude and

We booked a balcony, got the lowest level room with a porthole. Room smells like a combination of body odor and smoke, toilet rarely flushes, sometimes it will, sometimes 10 minutes later, and sometimes it is hours later.. drying our hair the second night set off alarms in our rooms for with security coming letting us know her body back was on. We have lots of business cards, time wasted in line

Older, but nice ship. Very dirty windows, never cleaned. Terrible for Alaska trip! MDR good, Windjammer not good. Park cafe excellent and very nice for early morning coffee. Gluten free options extremely limited, hard to find. Never labeled. Staff were helpful, but still terrible for an 8 year old! Ultra spacious ocean view cabin nice, guiet, but no outlets by bed. Only 1 US

This is my 2nd time on the Liberty, and unlike my previous experience last October, this one was mostly better.We embarked around 11AM for our 5-day Bermuda cruise, and after checking in quickly at our muster station, we were clear to do anything we wanted. Our rooms were available an hour earlier than expected, which was cool. I knew our luggage wouldn't be on-board until after 3pm, but at

If you want to feel like cattle being herded and like standing in lines then this is your cruise. Royal Carribeans model is pack them in and see how much we can get out of them once they are on. I mean $17 co*cktail with a mandatory 22% tip with an additional tip line? Give me a break. Then you have all the drink package people who are desperately trying to get their moneys worth and vomiting

I just have no clue where to start with this cruise line. This is my first cruise ever in life and I had the worse experience ever. First June 2nd we didn’t get in our rooms till round 8pm that night due to a delay. We get in the room sheets dirty called guest service no one will pick up looking up the hall for house keeping no one no where to be found . So the sheets didn’t get changed till June

This was our first time on Royal and in the Mediterranean so was unsure exactly what to expect. My husband and I were both very happy with our cruise and would do it again without question.Embarkation: It took all of 10 minutes from the time we arrived at the Port in Ravenna until we were on the ship. We quickly did our muster and had lunch at the buffet. It couldn't have been any easier or

Lost its Sparkle ,,, we were so looking forward to getting on Anthem of the seas but were soon to be dissapointed with how different Royal Caribbean run the ship to what they were like before covid . They have lost the Top spot for us , no Sparkle . Other cruise lines are overtaking them and its a shame . One other point Drinks prices are so over priced . Food good ,staff lovely . The
