Jewel OF THE SEAS

[george35]

Going on the JEWEL for the 1st time although we have been on many cruise ( diamond + on RCL ) what should we know about her?? We are both in our 80s but we still dance & walk ( and sometimes run ) another words active. We dont care about where the ship goes but more about the ship & things to do. We like to dance, compete in games ( but not one that require a lot of movement ( if you know what I mean ) My friend who were on the HARMONY OF THE SEAS said we should try to get on the LOVE & MARRAIGE GAME oh bye the way we well be celebrating our 65th anniv. on this cruise. Should we go or will be be making a fool of 2 old people?

All replys will we taken & voted on by my kids.

Congratulations on 65 years! That's quite an accomplishment. We're going on the Jewel for the first time in March, so I can't tell you much about her yet. You should definitely do the LOVE & MARRIAGE Game and show those youngsters up.😀

That’s up to you. Read some Jewel reviews for ship info.

Just back from a T/A on the Jewel. She is an awesome ship, beautiful in that everywhere is wood and glass. Despite being an “older” ship, she is in good shape.

Crew are outstanding, food in MDR was great.

You will love it!

 

I did write a review which is here 

Enjoy

We did the Arctic Circle on Jewel this past July and we felt she was in great Shape. We liked her so much better than our recent cruises on Serenade.

Warm clothes.

You should definitely do Love & Marriage. I could tell the couples really enjoyed it and made their cruise memorable. The cruise director made it very relaxed and fun.

Hello, we did this cruise last June it was fantastic, we had great weather the only time we had warm clothes was going to the north cape and up the mountain in Tromso. Most of the time it was shorts and t shirts. You will have a great time

We're sailing on Jewel in January to the ABC's, our first time on this ship. Thanks for the tips. We absolutely loved the Serenade.

The jewel has the centrum. Lots of dancing there. There is also the safari club area that has music and dancing.

Thanks to all who replyed to my question about the jewel you made a couple of OLD PEOPLE feel like cruising is not over yet. We are looking forward to exploring the JEWEL ( we took a 2 week cruise on her because it will take us that long to explore her }. My wife just asked "How is the food in the MDR?"

& what pay for resturant would you recomend?? Anything you can add to make our cruise a little more bearable for a couple of old f---s.

Food in the MDR is great. Personally I would not book the speciality restaurants due to our experiences - Giovannis was terrible service, Chops not worth the money at all, terrible rack of lamb, did t try Izumi though.
