Food was some of the best in over 25 cruises. Ships entertainment was a ten. All the shows of course had to be picked and reservation made in advance. Terminal was easy in and out. No complaints absolutely perfect highly recommended. Adult pools and places were so quiet and alot of variety of places to find to be alone especially if you like to sunbath and read. Best part was staffing was the most ...
This was my first cruise. I had a seasoned cruiser leading the way. She made all the reservations for our group of 7 girls. The food was good. Not blow your socks off amazing, but good. We ate dinner in the dining room each night and the Windjammer buffet every day for lunch. The buffet is huge, too many choices. So it's great for picky eaters. I thought the buffet food was good. My ONLY 2 issues ...
This is my 4th cruise on Grandeur of the Seas and I look forward to sailing on her again very soon. The ship has a spacious feel and her interior is very clean and well maintained by a loving, friendly crew. The March 18th sailing was her last before her scheduled drydock in Freeport. While talking with the crew many of her refurbishment details were unknown however I am assuming in addition to ...
I was worried as this ship is the smallest and oldest of Rroyal Caribbeans fleet but I was greatly surprised!! The staff was supper attentive and friendly, the boat wasn't crowded at all there was always available pool chairs available, and the food was absolutely delicious I was obsessed and gained a few pounds for sure LOL. We loved our dinner staff Yogi and Iputu! Yogi did some magic tricks for ...
First cruise since COVID, and second time on Anthem. Embarkation was so smooth and took the most of 5 minutes inside before walking onto the cruise ship. I really like how you can do most of the check-in online through the APP. Let me say the APP is one of the best.
Food
I enjoyed the food throughout the ship -- buffet, main dining room, doghouse, cafe 270, sorrento's and cafe promenade. ...
I went on this cruise with my friends and family, and we all had a great time. Because of the big size, it was a little hard to navigate, and The waters were a bit shakey. Other than that, it was mostly smooth sailing. We had a great time, but we did have to miss a stop due to safety issues in Haiti. Perfect day in Coco cay by Royal Caribbean was one of the nicest private islands I've ever been ...
I very much regret our latest cruise on Mariner of the Seas. We went during a busy time (spring break season), but the boat felt especially crowded. It was very much akin to how airlines started squeezing as much people in during the last decade or two- the cruise felt overbooked and there wasn't a single space, bar, or restaurant that wasn't jam packed or didn't have a line. In addition, the ...
The food most of it repeat its self. After a while you get tired of seeing the same thing going around. Some food products seem like it been reused while some salads not fresh, examples crotons soggy at dinner times at the main dining. Room need better hygiene and need to be better Sanitary, comforter, towels and wash cloth store under bed in plastic not fully in bag while guests staying there for ...
I am Diamond with RCCL and have enjoyed many cruises with them and other Lines. My cruise with Independence of the Seas was uneventful in that everything was pretty much what I have come to expect and enjoy with RCCL. here are some thoughts:
High lights the assistant cruise director from the Philippines was hilarious and ran the game and contests in an outstanding fashion - we has a show ...
Was the 1ST cruise I have ever been on but the experience was amazing. My wife gave me a heads up on what to expect - but the actual experience exceeded what I had in mind.
The Ship:
The ship itself is an older 2003 (not sure if that's considered older by experienced crusiers). Either way, the ship was very nice and clean throughout. Working as an area custodial supervisor I can tell the ...
