Royal Caribbean International

We recently sailed on Navigator of the Seas. Overall, the included food was disappointing. The buffet food was honestly disgusting, and the main dining room was extremely inconsistent—some nights the meals were good, while other nights they were barely edible. The constant inconsistency made dining frustrating and took away from the experience. Another drawback was the limited time spent at port compared to other cruise lines—we would have appreciated more time to explore. On a positive note, the service throughout the ship was excellent. Staff is amazing, extremely kind and very helpful. As for entertainment, we tried to watch five different shows, but the first two were canceled due to technical difficulties—twice. We finally managed to see the performance on the third attempt. Unfortunately, the first cancellation notice only came after we had already waited 30 minutes, and the second time guests weren’t informed until after an hour of waiting. It would be much better if communication about these issues were more proactive so guests can plan their time accordingly.

We had a lovely time on Navigator Of The Sea. We did a four night cruise with four generations of family. There was so much to do. We didn't do it all. Our grandkids. Love the flowrider, the two water slides, the climbing wall, the shows, the frozen drinks, The food, our waiters, the balloon animals, being together. We were in the interior rooms which were not bad at all. We had enough room. There was plenty of closet space and drawers and we would go again. This was our first time on Royal. It was nice being in a dark room to sleep. And all of our rooms were next door to each other, so we had many bathrooms. Instead of a sweet which only has one. We loved the food and the service. Especially Joel and Joseph our dining room waiters. All the kids were at one table and they took such good care of them. Doing magic tricks, being funny, talking, They even cut their steaks up for them. Can't say enough about them ❤️ The ship was beautiful, the rooms were comfortable, the staff was fabulous, We made some great memories. There is a lot to do on that ship. I was worried because we had done a Carnaval cruise and did not enjoy it. But this one was wonderful. Perfect for multi-generations. There's something for everyone.

First time cruiser here. Don't know what I don't know, but I can say that this experience was very positive and entertaining. There were some dinner shortcomings here and there but the food options are over the top. You can't do everything they have to offer, not enough time and you have to sleep at some point. Our 5 day Cabo San Lucas cruise was just long enough. I would regret not saying that the on board crew are extremely hard working and at the most accommodating folks I've seen in a long time. Warning: keep an eye on your tab! Things add up fast. Great trip, good food, excellent activities and wonderful people.

We just returned from our Royal Caribbean cruise, and it was such a memorable experience—especially for my daughter, as it was her very first cruise. From start to finish, the service exceeded our expectations. One of the highlights was the My Time Dining experience. We enjoyed an elegant five-course dinner each evening, and every dish was absolutely delicious. The dining room itself was beautiful, but what truly stood out was the service. Our head waiter, Painsli, along with the lovely Manlu, went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. From thoughtfully placing napkins on our laps to checking in regularly to ensure we had everything we needed, their kindness and attentiveness made dinner feel extra special. We also want to give a big thank you to our room attendant, Yoda. He not only kept our room in perfect order but also took the time to converse with us. We asked him many questions about his job, and he answered them with such patience and warmth, which made the experience feel personal and informative. Overall, this cruise was everything we hoped for and more. Excellent food, outstanding staff, and wonderful service made it a trip we will always remember. My daughter is already talking about our next cruise!

By far the best vacation I’ve ever had! From the moment I stepped onboard the Navigator of the Seas, everything exceeded my expectations. The hospitality was top-notch, the food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly professional and friendly. The level of service was truly high quality, and the cruise itself was absolutely beautiful and full of charm. I had heard that this ship was older and not considered “luxury,” but honestly, it had such a great vibe and atmosphere—I loved every second of it. My room had a fantastic view, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m already planning my next trip, and Icon of the Seas is definitely next on my list! Huge thanks to Royal Caribbean for this unforgettable experience. I’ve been recommending you everywhere and have already sent quite a few happy customers your way—and I’ll keep doing it!

We are long-time cruisers and have always enjoyed Royal Caribbean. Most recently, we sailed on the Ovation of the Seas to Cabo San Lucas. RC does a very good job of accommodating for food allergies, particularly in their main dining room. I do wish they offered more readily available allergen info at their other cafes throughout the ships. We always do find the overall service to be top notch and we will continue to be avid customers!

Went on Ovation of the seas and I can’t lie they have nice features like the pool bar and the bumper cars and really nice shops. They need a better elevator system as it take minutes to get a readily available elevator jammed packed with people on it. They also need to implement better tasting food in the dining room. Some things were just under seasoned and over done!

This was my first cruise. From LA to Ensenada on Navigator of the Sea. What a great experience. Our state room attendent May was fabulous and attentive. Our waiter Renee and her assistant Marie were over the top! Such phenomenal service as well as personable and kind. I enjoyed all the fun shows and activities on the ship. So many options, we never got bored. The only food I can say I wouldn't do again was the lobster as it was overcooked. Tried escargot for the first time. Mmmm. Had Idian food several times and it was primo! Enjoyed the sushi making class even though there was reservation problem.
