Creator's Key Takeaways

This ship really surprised the heck out of us, and we can definitely see ourselves coming back to it in the future.

I love the vibes and the aesthetics of the buffet. It's really nice. It's not too big. It's not too small.

The food was phenomenal. The fish tacos were great and the con fritters were awesome.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Right at about midnight, 12:30ish, they actually turn off all the lights in the Royal Promenade.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book specialty dining reservations early on embarkation day for better availability.
Get off the ship early in Grand Turk to secure free beach chairs and avoid crowds.
If you want to do the galley tour, pack long pants and closed-toe shoes just in case.
For the ice skating show, arrive at least 15-20 minutes early to get a good seat.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Noise from Royal PromenadeThey turn off most lights at night and it's very quiet; you only hear bass from parties, which is not bad.
Shower size for larger individualsIt's a tight squeeze but doable; alternative showers are available in the spa if needed.
Upselling on boardRoyal Caribbean does upsell specialty dining and drink packages; you can politely decline.
