customers say

Independence of the Seas receives generally positive reviews for its service, entertainment, and family-friendly atmosphere. Many guests praise the staff's friendliness and the variety of activities available for all ages. Food quality and dining experiences are mixed, with some guests finding meals excellent and others disappointed by temperature or variety. The ship is noted for being clean and well-maintained, though some mention signs of age and crowded public areas. Pricing and extra charges are a common concern, with several guests feeling 'nickel and dimed.' Excursions and ports are generally well-received, though some organization issues are noted. Internet connectivity is a weak point. Overall, the ship is recommended for families and those seeking a lively cruise, but some aspects could be improved.
