Thanks for posting. I will be on the ship in exactly a month November 3rd Overall food looks good some items look questionable, but honestly, I feel like carnival has stepped it up with their buffet. People complain that there is not a large variety, but I’ve sailed Royal Caribbean the last few years and while they do have a lot of variety, most of it is not very good..

Thank you for sharing this video. Of course, this has nothing to do with the quality of your video, it was great. But the food does not look appetizing, at all. In my opinion breakfast seemed marginally better than lunch and dinner although those bananas have seen better days. I would have been very disappointed to see the quality of that food. However, maybe the taste was better than the appearance. Thank you very much. I did enjoy your video. 🙏

Thank you for your comment! We've often considered adding the kind of commentary you mention, but we find that even within our own family, we don't always agree on what we liked vs. didn't because of our personal preferences and tastes. Adding in the inconsistencies we've experienced on cruise ships (e.g., two of us ordering a medium steak and getting wildly different doneness), we've deferred to simply showing the food and hoping everyone has the best possible food experience during their cruise! :)

Were the spots walkable or do you need to take a taxi to get to them? I know the beach gets crowded in the area close to port. We’d love to find a less crowded snorkel spot. Great footage and beautiful blue water.
@TheJellyBeans
@TheJellyBeans 17 күн бұрын
Everything in this video was within walking distance and pretty much right near the cruise ship. If you look at the far left side of the video around 0:48, we were basically straight out in the water from that area. Since we were snorkeling near the edge of the marked swimming area, the water wasn't crowded at all. If you want spots with even fewer people, you can keep walking along the beach towards Jack's Shack or you can walk/take a taxi to Governor's Beach. We stopped at Governor's Beach when we rented a golf cart back in December 2018 and you can see how uncrowded it was, even with three cruise ships in port: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIGzp6WMmsqsj5o As you can see in that video, the snorkeling wasn't as great, so it's a bit of a tradeoff. Hope this helps!

I am shocked at how unappealing the food looks -- so much worse than on my 22 Celebrity cruises of 2008 to 2022. Maybe you missed some important items -- or maybe some horrendous cut-backs have taken place during the past two years. I am really worried now. I may never cruise again.

Surprisingly, with more people mentioning it on social media the past couple of years or so, we've never found it crowded.

Holland America is known for their high quality food. The menus are different for each cruise with some local flavors of where you are traveling. Alaska cruises offered many salmon and fish dishes. Greek Islands had Greek inspired dishes. I always find that I can order a dimply prepared salmon or steak dish every night . They used to list it on the bottom of the menu. But you can ask for it. Also feel free to ask for multiple dishes like 2 appetizers. If you need a special diet like low sodium you call the cruise line ahead of time to request it. Then check with the dining room manager your first night. They give you a menu to fill out the night before each dinner if ordering a special diet. Also you can usually modify dishes you order from the regular menu like substitute or delete something
