Sail Date: Nov 2017
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

we wanted to experience the new best thing but were disappointed. the main dinning rooms lacked grandeur and a feeling of luxury. Public spaces were to small and poorly located. If you don't get there early don't bother. Schooner bar for example is the same size as smaller ships. The cruise director was a little flat and his staff lacked personality and engagement, seemed to want to get things over with quickly. However the hotel side and food and beverage service was great. The cabins were great and we enjoyed the Northstar , dodgems and I Fly. However the pools in the solarium are a little strange, to shallow with small seating areas. Drinks are getting dearer and wine is ridiculous taking into account everything is in US dollars. We must commend RCCL on their handling the Noro virus outbreak. It was a pity some passengers didn't think washy washy was necessary.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Great cabin . Fridge and electric jug welcome additions. Bathrooms are bigger than most, fit and finish excellent.
