Adventure of Seas review Jan 22, 2016


Recommended Posts

Fabulous trip! We had seen posts about large theme group (Drag Queens) being onboard...people worried about crowded venues, parties. This was not the situation at all. Quite the opposite. Because the group of 400+ had their own parties and events, all of the regular venues (like Quest, shows) were much LESS crowded. As for drinking/parties, I never saw anyone drunk or rowdy, one of the nicest cruises we have been on.

 

Puerto Rico-fabulous port. City is so beautiful, we toured the forts and city on our own with cab drop off. Cab from airport to hotel to town....ran about $20 every time we got in.

 

Hotels: We stayed in Hyatt House near port night before. Clean, nice, only place within walking distance to eat was Sizzler and Marriott. Great location for getting on ship, not so great for touring. We stayed an extra night on return, Hilton Condado Plaza. Beautiful place, great views, small beach. Still a $20 cab ride to town, but clean room, we had balcony view. Our room had tiny bathroom, much like the ship? Not sure if all have those.

 

Adventure of Seas was great. Yes, a little wear and tear (hole in blanket, chipped paint in bath) but none of that will interfere with a great cruise.

 

Excursions: Cruzan Rum and West End in St. Crois. Fun, interesting. There are some steep stairs to climb at the Rum Factory.

West Coast and Nutmeg Plantation in Grenada. Interesting, lovely ride through beautiful mountains.

 

Entertainment: Ice Show was amazing and different. Main shows were really good, except we had seen the same singers and comedians on cruise last year on different ship.

 

Food: Very good, only complaint-would like to have had shrimp more often in MDR. I love my shrimp!!!

 

We did have a Junior Suite this time, upgrade for us for our 40th Anniversary, there is an amazing amount of space!!! Huge closet!

 

We left the ship with no problems, our flight was early next day so we did not have any issues at the airport. I do see how that could get a bit crowded, looks like always 2 ships coming/going on same schedule, could all get to airport at same time?

 

If you have Adventure plans, enjoy!!!
