My family and I sailed on the RCCL-Adventure of the Seas in August 2003. The
ship is beautiful. We have gone on five cruises total and this is by far the
prettiest ship we have ever been on. We always go on Carnival and decided to
change. What a mistake that was. The food on this cruise was awful. I mean
awful. Down to the coffee! The coffee was awful. If you plan on going on this
cruise, take a minute and listen to what I am saying. They serve the same old
menu for breakfast every morning. The food has no taste! They should fire the
chef and hire Carnival’s. Portofino’s which is a restaurant that you pay $20.00
for is excellent. But, why should you have to pay for good food – you’ve already
paid. The kids programs are great and the pools are good. There is an adult pool
only which is good. The spa is more advertising and selling than the actual
event. The ports are good. We loved San Juan and Aruba. The bargains that you
get in St. Thomas are awesome. You can save a lot of money on jewelry. Even the
drinks were just so-so. Unlike Carnival. The fun, the food and everything is
excellent. I won’t ever go back on RCCL – any ship. I will always go on
Carnival. Like I said, listen to what I’m saying about the food. It’s not worth
having a beautiful ship and the food stinks.
