Grandeur of the Seas - The SMALLEST and OLDEST Royal Caribbean Ship!

- We sailed on Royal Caribbean’s oldest and smallest ship for 7 days. Was it awful? Would we do it again? It’s no secret that like many other ships, Grandeur of the Seas has had its share of problems over the past 27 years.
On 31 October 2000, Grandeur of the Seas lost power for 5.5 hours with power to lighting, plumbing and air conditioning restored by 10:45 a.m. The ship was towed to Willemstad, Curaçao where repairs were made and got back underway 12 hours late.
On 20 April 2005, while docking in Costa Maya, Mexico, a 42 ft (13 m) long hole was torn in the hull of the ship. The hole was located on deck one of the ship approximately 5 ft (1.5 m) above the waterline and 5 ft (1.5 m) wide at its widest. The company said that 15-knot winds (28 km/h; 17 mph) and a 3-knot (5.6 km/h) current contributed to the accident. The next seven-day cruise was shortened to five as the ship had to remain in Costa Maya an extra 2 days awaiting materials to patch the hole. Royal Caribbean offered guests transportation back to New Orleans or onboard credit if they chose to stay with the ship. The ship was later dry docked and the damage was repaired.
On 27 May 2013 at 2:50 am EDT, a fire broke out on the third deck of Grandeur of the Seas. The fire was extinguished within three hours, and major damage was limited to the aftmost sections of decks 3, 4, and 5. As a precaution, all passengers were required to report to evacuation locations for several hours. No evacuation was necessary, and the ship was able to continue under her own power to the Bahamas. The remainder of the cruise was canceled and passengers were flown back to their point of origin from Freeport, Bahamas.
On 16 January 2017, a lifeboat fell off of Grandeur of the Seas while it was docked in Charleston as part of a 10-day Bahamas cruise. The fall wire of the lifeboat was undergoing scheduled maintenance and the wire slipped during retrieval, causing the lifeboat to fall into the water. The lifeboat subsequently capsized. No injuries were reported and the cruise was not delayed after Royal Caribbean consulted with the US Coast Guard.
In the early hours of 9 January 2018, Grandeur of the Seas experienced a loss of port side steering while on its way from Nassau, Bahamas to Baltimore, Maryland. The ship was able to travel safely, and turned around towards Freeport, Bahamas, but arrived in Port Canaveral on 10 January 2018. The detour and repair work ultimately added 2 nights to the 9-night cruise, with the ship arriving back in Baltimore on 13 January 2018 instead of the originally planned 11 January 2018. As a result, the subsequent cruise was shortened by two nights.

I have heard that the lines are much more manageable and it’s easier to get on and off small ships. A lot of numbers I guess. Great video.
Very true! Thanks Wendy!
Love this boat! We went on a 10 night Caribbean cruise on the Royal Granger and I love this ship. It’s nice and small and so classy.
No obnoxious teens on older ships! It’s PARADISE!
It was kind of refreshing not to have all those teenage idiots banging on doors in the middle of the night
Thank you Tim and Felicia!!!
Enjoy!
Tampa is such a beautiful port
And the employees are 100% nicer in Tampa than they are at Port Canaveral!
@@mollygreathouse1191100%
Tampa is hands-down, our favorite cruise port. The people are amazing. Some woman carried our big suitcase down two escalators without even asking!
@@admtimi live in tampa and it sucks that we have to travel to other ports. The issue with tampa is that the boats need to be able to fit under the skyway bridge
@@shaunn7778 true. Heard they're trying to move the port to the other side of the bridge
Great videos guys, keep up the great work
Thank you 🙏
We leave Oct 14th on Grandeur, but we booked the Royal suite so hopefully we enjoy it.
Our first Rccl was a 7 day with inside rooms on the song of Norway which was their first ship and good memories especially the skeet shooting off the deck and hitting golf balls into the ocean too😂
We heard about hitting golf balls off the ship! Sadly they won’t let us do that anymore 😢
But no Flowrider 😢
NOrider! Not much water fun.
What the heck is that at 3:03? For real ?
LMAO classic Tim
It doesn’t get more real
4:05 I am CRYING 🤣🤣🤣
We were crying too. But probably for different reasons lol.
Great information, you guys are great! I hated the fact that we did not have a cooler/fridge in the cabin
You know, we totally forgot to mention that! Thank you so much! It was so great meeting you, maybe we should cruise together sometime. I think it would be a blast!
Enjoy your video, you are funny 😆.
THANK YOU so much for watching!
This husband's demeanor reminds me of actor, Michael Douglas. Lol!
Or the talk show host Mike Douglas!
There's something cool about smaller ships. I think with all the megaships like Wonder and Icon, people will begin to want the comfort and coziness of small ships without all the parasitic children. Interesting.
LMAO 'parasitic'
I will be on this ship from December 16,2023 - March 6,2023 this was be my second time!
It’s a great ship with the BEST people. Enjoy!
Thank you,
We were on the ship last year for 2 months, so we decided to do a repeat.
Aren't you guys doing the Icon of the Seas inaugural cruise?
YASSSS January 2024
Waiting for the full room tour 😂
Honestly it was so pathetically boring we’re considering not doing it. Talk us into it.
The wife and I would LOVE to cruise with you guys! We will even pick up the bill. Sending an email to the contact info on your channel. Let us know if you didn’t get it.
WOW can we come too??? ❤❤❤
We on like Donkey Kong! Check your email. Love your idea!
Man need anyone else to go? Going in May to Cozumel.
This is my favorite RCCL ship BECAUSE of its small size. On a ship like this, you might actually befriend people and have service provided by people recognize you. You'll have a favorite bartender and get to know your fellow dining guests. Maga ships are too anonymous. Rudeness is everyone because you never see the same people (guests or crew) twice. Although, we loved our Loft Suite on Oasis...... Just sayin'. But I miss Empress and the entire Sovereign class.
Excellent points!
1996? My first was in 96 on Majesty! 🤣🤣
You never forget your first.
