Welcome to Caroline B's review of the Royal Caribbean International, Monarch of the Seas. ReviewThatCruise.com is first for Monarch of the Seas Reviews & Monarch of the Seas ship reviews.
I\'ll start off saying if you\'re under 21, don\'t bother coming because they don\'t serve alcohol out of American ports to anyone under 21. The rooms are small, the food is terrible. For example, the ice cream is freezer burnt, the food is tasteless and just pretty much gross. On the island we were served a lot of barbeque and flies were all over the food. I got sick on the boat. The people are extremely nice but do not make up for the fact that you are sleeping in a small bed in a small room with a smelly bathroom. My boyfriend hit his head on everything since the room was so small. There are the normal amenities, pool, fitness center, spa, casino.....everything is OVERPRICED. It even costs 20 dollars just to slide down a slide at Coco Cay. The Casino is a complete rip off. We lost PLENTY of money in that Casino. I paid 9 dollars for a small ice cream from Ben & Jerry\'s. That was the only edible thing on the boat. Everyone is drunk, and from ages 18-20 this could be seriously annoying as they do not serve \"underage\" under 21 year olds. This rule was just recently changed. Not much to do after 11 pm (except get drunk). And as a last note, if you don\'t believe me with all of this just make sure you bring snacks so you have something decent to eat and don\'t get a room in the back of the boat - when the anchors go down, it sounds like a train in the morning while you are sleeping. I will no longer be travelling with Royal Caribbean.
