A truly amazing ship, with superb facilities and staff only pleased to help. If any failings can be levied, it was with the service, still not quite 'gelling' as expected, I'm sure this will be sorted very soon, in normal RCI style, it is a very new ship and crew after all.

All areas were exteremly comfortable, 'chilling' in the solarium after a busy day on shore or after sun bathing by the pool, most relaxing.

As mentioned earlier, some fine tuning required with this new ship and staff, but always willing to address any problems.

We had a deck 9 sea view cabin with balcony, which was as all RCI balconied cabins, quite amazing with there use of space.

All activities entered into were very well done and extremely professional. Could do without the slightly 'cheesy' cruise director, who I'm sure appeals to the older person, but on this ship with it reaching out for the younger cruiser maybe, she was just out of place.

Key West, day at sea, Cozumel, Ocho Rios, George Town, day at sea, Willenstad, Oranjestad, 2 days at sea. We didn't take any 'explorations' as there called. preferring to go it alone, but there where many to chose from. On board we swam, climbed the rock wall, golf, table tennis, basket ball, football, danced in the disco. No child care experiences, but they seemed very well catered for.

It was the most friendly bunch of passengers we have met, usually you come across 2 or 3 really nice couples, but this time, we didn't stop talking to people the whole cruise. fantastic.
