I'm taking a week-long cruise on Royal Caribbean to Puerto Rico and I've never been on a cruise so I'm not really sure what to expect.

What were your experiences with Royal Caribbean?

What are the prices like for food on board? Are any meals included in price? Are the drinks (alcoholic, of course) expensive or cheap? Also, if you have any other suggestions or tips that would be great! |||I'm Puertorican, and I can tell you about cruises, I've been on more than 10 cruise ships, and they are great!. Royal Caribbean is not the best cruise line but its sure one of the best out there, they'll take good care of you. The best part of a cruise ship is the food, so make sure you starve before you get in to one, because you will gain at least 15 lbs, the food is free everywhere, except on the cruise ship's exclusive restaurants, but on the ticket you will be granted "free" meals on the cruise ship's main restaurant (the really big one) where you will be assigned a permanent table with people you don't know, so pray they are fun, they will be your dinner companions for the entire stay; so if you are not into that kind of dynamics, you will have to pay some extra to get into a restaurant where you won't have to deal with that. But there's tons of free food everywhere at ALL TIMES, its an all you can eat routine, there's the top deck buffets, where most people go to get their breakfasts and lunches, and some of the cruises have Johnny Rockets that are free. Now for the drinks, they are not free, you'll have to pay for sodas and alcohol, some offer drink packages before you get on board. Now, there's a lot to do on the cruise ship, tons of activities, out on the deck, mini golf (if its a new cruise), ice skating, movie cinema, theater, arcade, spa, gym. The pool is salty, so its sea water, there's bingo games (good money), CASINO, there's shows every night, dancers, magic shows, shopping, dance clubs. Well, and of course you get to go to different places with a moving hotel, there's tours that you have to pay extra, but they are really expensive, sometimes hiring a taxi cab is way cheaper and far more adventurous. Most of the islands you'll visit are mostly either jewelry or the beach, it all depends on what you're looking for, don't expect a city, the small islands are very small, and basically most of them just offer natural sightseeing, they are pretty much the same, but the beaches are to die for!. Now PR is quite different from the small islands, we are one of the most crowded places on Earth, and have more roads and concrete per/sq mile than any other country in the Caribbean, you'll need more than a day to see PR, its pretty crazy, and there's tons to do in here, we have the beaches, Old San Juan is great, but its not everything, its more like a historical site, but we have great shopping (Plaza Las Americas) and modern San Juan is a vibrant city with lots of activities and nightlife. Well, thats not all but I hope I gave you a little insight of what to expect. But do it, you won't regret it.|||I took a cruise on Royal Carribean. The ship was called Monarch of the Seas

AWESOME SHIP THOUGH

you get a card and um yeah|||i have many times my dad is a crazy photagrapher he goes all round the world and i gotta go with him......UGHLEZZZZ|||I've been on two Royal Caribbean cruises. All the meals are included, beside a few restraunts (like a couple of them you have to pay for). I'm not sure about the alcoholic beverages.. I know they give you free coffee, juices and water.

It is a great cruise line! You'll enjoy it! :)|||i went on a royal caribbean cruise with my family to cozumel, jamacia, and the grand cayman, and it was amazing. all the food is included, and is AMAZING, but alcohol isnt included. i'm not sure about the prices because i cant drink, but i dont think it was really really expensive to have a drink with your dinner. the bedrooms and bathrooms are pretty small, unless you get a suite, but it shouldnt be too bad with just a couple people. we survived in a room with a queen bed and bunkbeds and a pullout couch with 5 people. and really, you probably won't be in the room too much as there is a TON of stuff to do on board. you'll have a lot of fun!|||Ive never been sorry but any food is elegant or at least thats what my mom told me |||i have been on a royal caribbean cruise it was so much fun! i hear PR is beautiful but i went to the bahamas. drinks are about 7.50 on the island and you cant take any alcohol back on the ship:( food is included in your ticket however the drinks are not. http://www.royalcaribbean.com/allaboutcr鈥?/a>|||I have been on Royal Caribbean three times and my experience with them has been extrodinary. They are the best cruise line, in my opinion. The drinks aren't too cheap, about $5-$7 each, but if your young and beautiful like me then you will find that you get a lot of free drinks ;) I had a bartender that would bring me a free drink everytime he say me, no matter where I was or what time of day it was.

San Juan is a nice island. If your|||I have never been on a Royal Caribbean cruise but my wife and I have been on 6-7 cruises over the last 10 years. Been to Puerto Rico several times. Do not miss spending some time in Old San Juan. Tour the old fort and enjoy the quaint old shops. Do not choose the fancy gourmet looking eating places but instead look for where the locals eat. It may not look fancy but our experience is these small places have the best food on the island. Enjoy your cruise!
