This was my first time on a Royal Caribbean ship and I am happy to say that it was a great experience. Perhaps I enjoyed this ship more than some others did because I went in with the right expectations. Navigator is an older ship that was refurbished in 2019 (?) and so it is not going to be pristine. There will be imperfections and while I did notice them in my cabin - a few rust spots on the balcony, drawers that could stand to have the bearings replaced, etc., overall I thought the ship was in great shape for it's age. Our cabin steward was excellent and went above and beyond for any requests we had. The cabin was extremely clean and we always had a towel animal at the end of the day. The service in the MDR was very good and our particular wait staff was pleasant and efficient. The food was okay but not spectacular and due to our schedule we ended up eating a lot of meals in the Windjammer or at El Loco Fresh. We LOVE Mexican food and El Loco Fresh did not disappoint. It has a limited menu and limited hours but the food was always extremely fresh and well-prepared. I wish every ship had an El Loco Fresh! The Windjammer is about what I would expect from a buffet. The omelet station in the morning was excellent as were all of the live cooking stations throughout the day. Some of the premade dishes were excellent and some were just okay. Overall I would say the food was good and you certainly will not go hungry. There were a few staff members around the ship that were not the happiest but the vast majority of crew were enthusiastic and seemed genuinely happy to serve. The entertainment was good and there were way more activities to pick from than we had time to attend. If you're bored on this ship then you're either way too picky or not paying attention to the Cruise Compass. Overall, I loved the crew, the ship layout and amenities, our cabin, and the food. Was everything perfect? No, of course not. Was everything good and worth the money - absolutely!!
This was our first cruise, and we did a little bit of research-so we did not go in blindly. I would have given this a 5 star review if it were not for the smell in the hallway. We did report it and it was taken care of right away, however, the smell would keep coming back. We realized it is probably 1) due to being an old ship 2) we were on deck 2 so must have been above something smelly Either way it did not waft into our room- so that was good! We were on the lowest deck for cabins right under the main dining room and never heard anything -bonus. Cabin was perfect for us, was worried there would not be enough room to get around the bed, but there was plenty. We were thankful for the shower door and not a curtain (whew) The food was very very good. we did not opt for specialty dining and do not feel like we missed out. We had The Key-our embarkation lunch was good, the burger was cooked perfectly (fries not so much) and breakfast all around perfect! We tried lunch in El loco fresh- not good at all. the concept was great, and it looked and smelled good, but the carnitas had zero flavor and the chips tasted stale. We opted not to eat there again. Windjammer-always great! Never ran into long long lines, or had to wander around aimlessly looking for a table. Loved the variety and everything was very tasty. Not gonna lie, was sad they did not have chocolate chip cookies, but the lemon sugar cookies-delicious, even took some to our cabin. We did not like the lasagna in the main dining room, but we also did not know we could have asked for something else. Also we were not aware that we could have asked for a faster meal service to make a show-so we only ate there 1 time. Food service was pretty much nil after 2100-and that was disappointing. Thought we could get something late at the Promenade cafe, but all they had were premade sandwiches which did not look appetizing, and the pizza was not great. The entertainment was amazing! Could not believe there was ice skating on a cruise ship. All the shows, and the musicians were very talented and entertaining. The pools were great. We did sit at the main pool our first 2 days, and there were kids there just being kids. It was fun to watch them, however we did prefer the adult pool area. The drinks- we did have the drinks package-and were thankful for that. The specialty coffee in the Promenade cafe was just as good as Starbucks. The bartenders were not shy with their pours. We are used to drinking at altitude and did not think it would be possible to get a little buzz at sea level after 2 drinks-we were wrong. I know people say The Key is not worth the money-I disagree, embarkation and disembarkation were a breeze. It included internet and that was I think more than 1/2 the price. IF/when we sail Royal Caribbean again, we will get the Key. This is most definitely not a bucket list cruise. We could visit Catalina easily for a quick weekend getaway and would probably skip Ensenada all together. We took this cruise to get us ready for our Thanksgiving cruise on Princess.
