Adventure of the Seas Reviews

The staff on Adventure of the Seas are fabulous. Always happy, polite and want to make your holiday perfect. Would not hesitate to recommend them. Royal Caribbean were great from start to finish.

Excellent itinerary, enjoyed all the ports.

Embarkation was straight forward, cruise was great, with friendly and helpful staff, food was good, entertainment was fine, ports of call were good.

Great holiday sunny weather and good food

Fabulous cruise round Caribbean with a two day stay in Miami Beach. Everything went smoothly and to plan transfers were on time. The only problem we had was having to contact the taxi company when we arrived back in port as I had no service on my phone. Fortunately I managed to find someone who phoned them for me.

Booked a cruise on this ship to the Caribbean for a special occasion, and so very much looking forward to it. Our cabin was very nice as booked a suite, the staff were all wonderful. We only ate in the Windjammer buffet restaurant as don’t like the formality of a dining room. The food was wonderful at every mealtime, great selection and excellent quality. The waiters came around all of the time to get you drinks, or see if all was ok, and generally to assist, some of the best staff I have ever encountered. We had the deluxe drinks package and well worth it as there was excellent choice and good value for the price paid. However, with regard to the ship itself, I felt it was extremely overcrowded mainly when it came to the pool area, on the 12th deck the beds were all tied together and there was not even enough room to get between them, and always full. The main pool area has a children’s pool along side the adults pool, it was crammed you couldn’t get near it, far too busy. The Solarium pool for adults was also too small to accommodate the number of guests. You also couldn’t seem to find a quiet corner on deck. On the main pool deck the music blasted out and I mean blasted, and sorry but I don’t mind a bit of music but this was far too loud, not relaxing at all. The entertainment was quite good, the ice show in particular, I have never seen this on a cruise ship before and thought it was amazing. The bars were all good, and all areas very well kept. There were however over 900 teenagers/children on the ship, some were in the adult bars late at night, obviously not consuming alcohol, but I do think there should have been restrictions on where they could go after a certain time. With regard to the itinerary, we visited Haiti, Peurto RICO, St Marteen and St Kitts. I would say Peurto RICO was the best, with the others unless you like a beach or jewellery shopping, then not really much else. Also The trips are quite expensive booked through the ship. I am not sure I would go with Royal Caribbean again, as have done over 20 cruises and this was the first time I have felt so stressed on a ship and could not wait to get home. I felt the ship was far too crammed for my liking and not relaxing at all. I have also come to the conclusion I would rather stick to cruising nearer to home, as on the flight out we were allocated separate seats which is a pain on long haul I was in row 47 and my husband was in row 29. For disembarking the ship we had to leave at 8.15am but our flight was not until 20.40 pm, apparently all guests have to be off the ship by 10.00am. I have never known this as normally you are able to disembark a bit nearer to your flight time! To add to this, the return transfer from the ship to Miami airport broke down on the highway and we were stuck there for over 2 hours in the boiling heat! At which point really had enough, so all in all not the best experience.

I had a fantastic time! Everything was well organised. The flight, transfers, hotel were all good. Embarkation was trouble free. The ship has been smartened up in some areas, especially the slides and surf area which was a great experience. Staff were really friendly and were so helpful. The food was great too although over the years they have cut down on the selection (but is happening on most ships these days too!) overall, a great holiday, met some new friends on our table. Only dined in the windjammer twice all holiday (it can be extremely busy there) as I prefer a quieter dining experience. I would certainly go again! Thank you! Sent from my iPad

Had a lovely time the only disappointment was the food not as good as usual

We have had a wonderful holiday we did niargra fall for two nites train down to New York for 2 nites (the train was not as we expected took 12 hr 2hrs of it was customs I was so looking forward to it with sentry only saw trees and more trees hindsight we souls of flown that would of given more time in NY). The cruise was really great, great ship,food and service Canada and New England would recommend this trip. Helena

We, unfortunately, booked a cruise from San Juan around the Caribbean to depart 23rd Sept but was obviously cancelled due to the devastation caused by hurricane Irma and Maria. We have used Iglu before and cruised with the Royal Caribbean and have never had any problems. However, it is when things go wrong that you truly feel the quality of the service received by Iglu and Royal Caribbean. I don't usually write reviews but the support and assistance we received from Danielle, an iglu cruise representative was second to none. We were in our way to Miami before we found out the issues Maria had caused and our flights had been cancelled to San Juan so when we arrived at the hotel in Miami we were natuarally worried and concerned about where this left us with regards to how we would get home etc. However Daniele kept us informed about everything each day and arranged further hotel stays in Miami and organised our flights to her back home. Furthermore, less than a week later we have received a full refund of our cruise including flights etc. This was a stressful and anxious time for us but Danielle made the whole situation much easier. I would highly recommend Iglu cruises to anyone and will continue to use for future cruises. The Royal Caribbean have also quickly issued refund for excursions etc that we prepaid and we love the Royal Caribbean ships so will no doubt be cruising again with them in the future ??
