sadiem Posted March 5, 2006 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2006 What can you tell me about the Jewel. I am trying to decide between the Jewel and CCL Legend. Also I haven't seen any pricing for balcony guarantee rooms, does that mean they don't have them or do you have to ask. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elleluv Posted March 5, 2006 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I haven't sailed on the Jewel, but I can tell you that she gets excellent reviews... everyone who sails on her seems to love her! RCCL doesn't always offer the guarantee catagories... I really haven't seen them for very many sailings. If they have them, they do show them.

JENANDGENE Posted March 5, 2006 #6 Share Posted March 5, 2006 We sailed on the Jewel in September 10 days out of Boston..... it was out best 10 days that year! It was just wonderful. Good food, attentive staff, beautiful and clean ship.... the most georgeos solarium area I have ever seen on any of the RCI ships. Loved the tahitian hut and the huge golden elephants!! Also must sees are the Schooner bar....one of the best decorated I have seen, and the sports bar. Also if you haven't been on a Radiance class ship the outside elevators are a must. They have all glass walls and if you ride them from about deck 12 down to deck 4, you will swear you are going to plunge into the ocean. Pretty cool! Captain James McDonald was very good, the only Canadian Captain I know of. I have heard the cruise director has changed. We had Peter ?Blightman who was excellent. Cheerio! Anyways, you will have an awesome time....... Jen Aventure of the Seas .... 62 days! Jewel 2005 Explorer 2004 Voyager 2002 Monarch 1994 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv4dacruise Posted March 6, 2006 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2006 We sailed out of Boston on her last year, most beautiful ship i have ever been on. One vote for Jewel here. I don't even think you can compare the 2 to be honest....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msbr Posted April 27, 2006 #9 Share Posted April 27, 2006 We travel CCL LEGEND for Thanksgiving 2005 and we just now booked the Jewel for Thanksgiving 2006...will never go back to CCL. So disappointed in the dining and food prep/presentation. Camp Carnival was a poor experience. Our table servers were wonderful and the steward accomodating but, all in all, the Legend was a terrible disappointment. (The Sloth Sanctuary in Costa Rica should not be missed if you should chose the Legend's West. Carib..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipknotshore Posted April 27, 2006 #11 Share Posted April 27, 2006 That's my video! Glad to see it's still popular! :D Sylvia: Just watched your video. Great job. We'll be on the Jewel this fall and am anxious to experience all the Jewel has to offer. Glad the reviews are all so positive. We're doing a Back 2 Back for 14 nights so I plan on getting to know the ship pretty well - she looks beautiful from your video shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
