Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

I'm going to give this experience a 10 out of 10. It was It was very relaxing and I got to have a massage in an actual cave.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

Amazing. The best show I've ever seen at sea. It was awesome. Yeah, probably one of the best shows we've ever seen on the water.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

This is a 10-10 experience.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

The island genuinely feels like several different vacations smashed into one.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

I don't think I've seen water bluer than this. I mean, look at this. It is so stinking blue and it's clear.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa
The Watch-outs

If you spend thousands of dollars and you get on that cruise ship and you realize there's nothing to do for your kids, you're going to be annoyed.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

I can never go back. >> Room service was gross.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

Cruise Wi-Fi doesn't just drain your vacation budget. It really traps you into paying it because you have no other choice.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

The bed though, listen, I don't say this lightly. It might be the worst bed in the cruise industry. I'm talking rock firm, cheap hotel vibes.

🏅AuthorityGriff & Alyssa

If you hate crowds, do not book this cruise.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Griff & Alyssa.

  1. Experiment with different food options as quality can be hit or miss.

  2. Use the ship's staff to help get sorted if you have questions.

  3. If booking a cruise for a large family, consider a suite or two connecting rooms rather than a single standard room to ensure enough space.

  4. When traveling to the Caribbean, consider the time of year to avoid peak hurricane season (August through November).

  5. Use a travel agent to handle logistics, access exclusive rates, and provide advocacy if something goes wrong during travel.

  6. Keep in mind the property is massive; walking between restaurants can take a significant amount of time.

  7. Check out the swim-up suites if you want direct pool access from your balcony.

  8. If you're trying to get on Royal Caribbean for the first time, you got to check out the aqua show.
