    Perfect video of you trying new things. I'm loving this journey and I was SO stoked to see you trying a new cruise line. I didn't know if it would happen, but it's been great following along. I adore you and Koda and I love your reviews because I feel like we have very similar food tastes. Wishing you guys the best and I can't wait to watch your future and magical adventures!

    as for the parade - my grandkids adore it (on the last cruise they were 6, 8 and 10 years old). They try to find a place to stand about where you were and all the characters who walk by high five them. Crazily they think that's the coolest thing ever. Also on all of our cruises the promenade has been totally packed with people. Maybe because our cruises are always 100% sold out (in august in europe). Anyway, the grandkids went to two of the parades on our cruise out of barcelona last summer. So yeah, there is an audience for whatever that is. I should add that they've been on 3 disney cruises as well (once on the magic, once on the dream and once on the wish) and enjoyed them too. But preferred the oasis of the seas cruise last summer.

    I think they started doing check in/out for towels when after the debut of Freedom of the Seas and getting wiped out during the pre inaugural travel agent cruises. Of course the towels also used to be nicer and well branded making them a target. One tiny perk of staying in a suite is that they skip the towel process with a suite sea pass.

We participate in the game show and you’re right what I saw that I never wanna see again lol. For some reason My hubby ended up in the middle of it all lol. We really enjoyed ourselves.

    This parade was not done on my 2 RC cruises. I did a 5 and 9 night cruise. I was on the class below this though.
    The boys also preferred the kids clubs on Disney. Idk if it was just my cruise or if it is normal, but the clubs hours were weird. The preteen club was closed in the middle of the day. It was open for a few hours in the morning if it was open at all. Then closes and opens up closer to dinner. The younger kids you need to pick them up after 2 hours then check them back in. Was it just my cruise? It was in Dec of last year 2023.

What you get for your money on Royal is just better than Disney and my kids actually enjoyed the kids club on Royal more than Disney ! The kids club on Royal was just managed better than the one on Disney. My kids felt like it was hunger games on the Disney kids club.

  • @Kris74F

    Perfect! Video! Thanks for sharing and comparing your experience from Royal to Disney, as most viewers that’s mainly what we sail Disney and Royal. I will say and this is just me perhaps next time try a Junior Suite no matter what your next ship is on Royal I mean if it’s in your budget. I feel that this is where it’s apples to apples comparison. You get the tub bigger room double points which I believe you said Diamond is something you would like to hit status wise. Remember 50 cruises on Disney and you get your name on Castaway. 50 cruises on Royal in a Junior Suite and your Pinnacle! Six free drinks a day so many benefits free WiFi for so many days access to the suite lounge suite restaurant. Imagine if Disney offered that perk like to say Pearl status. Having access to the concierge lounge on any of the ships on Disney. With Royal you can. Look both have many benefits why not have both in due time. I can easily see you as Pearl on Disney and Diamond Plus on Royal in the next say 36 months? I think you can.

    Adrian, the best part of CoCo Cay (for adult) is hands down Hideaway Beach! It’s usually only $40. And the pools are heated at both Hideaway Beach and the Beach Club. The Beach Club is a bit more expensive, but the Lobster meal is almost worth it.

      Key is how you say Cay in relation to the geographical feature. But Royal specifically pronounces it Kay so it rhymes with Day.
      So it’s Perfect Day at Coco Kay when referring to the experience. But if you’re just talking about the island it’d be more accurate to say Coco Key.
      Yes it’s confusing. Blame Royal’s branding.
      Carnival called their new experience Celebration Key to sidestep this whole thing.

    I often get anxiety in restaurants--been that way since I was a kid so I don't know why--and a buffet would certainly reduce the stress and make things easier. The worst is waiters noticing you didn't finish your plate and asking "oh, you didn't like it?" It's so humiliating. With a buffet no one notices how little you are taking.
    Chickens are funny little critters and if they eat up all the flies I would love to see them running around. I don't like worrying about extra fees so I guess Disney's larger upfront cost might be better there. But then I probably wouldn't get my money's worth either. I guess it depends on what you want.

    I must preface this with me and my wife don’t have kids so my views are bias toward adult crusing. First off the service on Disney cannot be beat they are incredible, also the quality of food is better. However Royal wins hands down when it comes to cruising. So much more variety and options on Royal. Tons of included food options all over the ship including main dining, buffet, multiple specialty restaurants , love me some late night pizza from Sorrentos. Many more entertainment options, love the crazy quest, piano bars, dance parties, Karaoke. with Disney kinda feels like everything winds down after 10pm. The private island has more options as far as food and entertainment and not infested with flys. I will say I have noticed the food quality of Royal has gone down the last year, they rolled out a new main dining rm menu and the older one was better. Disney always has a place in my heart and the service and staff is second to none. But when it comes to cruising Royal wins, especially on value. We probably go on 3-4 trips with Royal then throw in a Disney. Still haven’t been on Icon of the season yet but it’s on the to do list.

    The unfortunate thing about Royal is that their main dining room menu has gone downhill big time. Their specialty restaurants are great, but expensive. Often, the buffet is the best option for dinner which to me is unfortunate. I like being served and not eating from selections that 100s of people may have touched or sneezed on.
    Hideaway Beach at CoCo Cay has.a heated pool. It may be worth the upgrade in cooler months, but it is anything but relaxing. It is a party.

    I thought the towel deposit would bother me, as we were used to Disney as well, but I actually I learned to love it! With just one towel per person, beach/pool chairs weren’t being reserved as much. We found on Disney people would reserve several (often in different areas), resulting in a sea of towels and no people sitting in the chairs.
    I actually wish Disney would implement the deposit. Though after switching to Royal, we likely won’t be back to Disney.
