Creator's Key Takeaways

It was my first time on board this class of ship with Royal Caribbean, so I was incredibly excited to step on board.

The ship I'll happily sail again.

I can't recommend the specific cabin, but I wouldn't shy away from an inside cabin in the future.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check for frequent sales on Royal Caribbean for pre-booked activities and rebook if you see a lower price.
✓If you end up in an inside cabin with a virtual balcony, you can turn it off before you go to sleep.
✓Get the key if you want to do bumper cars to skip the line.
✓Don't miss the fun things to do in town in Ensenada.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

What to expect from an inside cabin with a virtual balcony — You can turn off the virtual balcony before sleep; it's spacious and great for sleeping in.
How to navigate dining options — Choose from multiple dining rooms or My Time Dining; Wind Jammer is quicker with more variety.
How to maximize activities like bumper cars — Get the key to skip lines for low-capacity attractions like bumper cars.
