Creator's Key Takeaways

So far, I love this ship.

We're here for four nights. We are going to the Royal Beach.

This might be the coolest pub on any ship ever.

This is a vacation versus a trip.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book specialty dining as soon as you board because time slots fill up fast.

✓Book kids camp as soon as you board because times fill up fast.

✓Bring a 12-pack of water per person if you're new to Royal Caribbean.

✓Order room service breakfast for free, including continental items.

✓Lock in your alcohol purchases on day one to avoid sell-outs.
