Dining room food and service excellent. Excellent wait staff that met our needs.Windjammer Cafe traffic pattern entering and exiting poorly planned. A lot
of confusion attemting to exit. Food not always warm.

Entertainment in show lounge excellent and varied. Seating arrangements excellent.

Shops displayed merchandise in front of shops on racks and interfered with traffic pattern. Almost a fire hazard.

Cabin service excellent. Kept very clean and cabin steward attentive and responsive.

Disappointed with shore excursions. Lot of riding on bus with little time to stop for a reasonable time at historic or important sites.Return of shore
excursions to ship very late in four instances. In one instance they pulled up the gangplank as we were the last to return.

Lunch arrangements poorly planned in relationship to afternoon shore exursions. Windjammer Cafe opened at 12:30 p.m. and most shore exurcusions
departed at 1:00 p.m. Dining room opened at noon, but one had to be on shore at least 15 minutes prior to departure of bus. Lunch was hurried.

We have sailed on Holland America many times, Celebrity, Costa, and America Hawaai as well as three times on RCCL. We would rate RCCL near the top
at all. Not sure we would go again.
