Royal Caribbean International

MV Mariner of the Seas

Your Rating:Five Stars
Reviewed by:Jonathan Chadwick
# previous cruises: 4
Date of Trip: May 23, 2004
Itinerary: Caribbean - Western

Overview
Lovely very laid back and fancy at the same time. Never close in at all unless your a deck 2 inside cabin then your really closed in but it's the price you pay for. The mini. golf the best and the pool's lacked depth. Overall best i've been on. You may have seen my review for the Nordic Empress. It wont come close to this though.

Public Areas
Excellent that's all I have to say. except that it is a little bit of a problem to get to the rhapsody in blue dinning room its a little out of the way to get there.

Food and Service
Food was Excellent.

Room service was also very good. Each morning we ordered coffee and juice and a two days we ordered breakfast. These were all ordered the night before. A wake up call letting us know that the server would be there momentarily was quickly followed by a knock on the door. Coffee on the balcony was a great way to start the day!

Cabins
Perfect immaculate condition should be for only 6 months old. Just be careful when you get in there the air conditioning isn't turned on so don't complain if it's hot just turn the stat down and you will be fine.

Entertainment
Good didn't do every show but they where great. Don't go to the jazz show in the Viking Crown lounge because the guy singer is like one of those sleazy lounge singers. Probably hints the name Viking crown lounge.

Activities
Good, excelent and smooth no rude purser deck employees.

Who Goes
Everyone. If you don't like the young crownd and kids this boat isn't for you. Go to Holland America.
