" Butlins by the sea "

If you can cancel your cruise, my advise is do so, over crowded, wait and que for everything, over priced everything, NHS quality food at its worst..........if I could rate lower than one it would be minus.
I'm sorry but anyone saying this ship is good in anyway has not had a good holiday before.

" More like a booze cruise to Calais "

Cruised with Royal Carribean before but this may be the last time. Gross overcrowding made cafe tables, seats and sunbeds impossible to find and the ship was packed with chavs who only seemed interested in getting as much alcohol down their necks as... read more

" big,busy,great for kids "

" First Cruise "

We experienced our first ever cruise on the 4th July on the Independance of The Seas. I have looked at other reviews and feel people are moaning unjustly. Lets be realistic, you know once you are captive on a ship, on the ocean, things are going to be... read more

" Money making machine "

Sailed on the Independence of the seas in July. The ship is beautiful but to large. The staff are helpful and the food very good, but some of Royal Caribbean’s policies are questionable. Firstly the drink is expensive; any alcohol brought onto the... read more

" Not what we expected. "

The best way to describe our cruise on this ridiculous ship is "Butlins on a boat".
It just needed a few hundred Redcoats to complete the picture.

" Rip the British off cruise "

We have been on 5 cruises before, 4 with RCL but the Independence of the Seas was definitely the worst ship we have been on. It was a complete rip off as far as drinks was concerned and was informed by a passenger who sailed from the States to... read more

" First Cruise Experience "

This was our first cruise and we treated ourselves to a balcony stateroom which was a great bolt hole when we got fed up with not finding some where to sit on sea days when weather precluded the on deck options. (4 out of 5 days unfortunately). The... read more
