Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Back-to-Back Finale | Final Sea Day on Quantum of the Seas

by | Aug 23, 2025 | | 0 |

Join us as we review our last day on a Royal Caribbean cruise after spending a few days aboard Quantum of the Seas! We’ll share our thoughts on the having a slow and easy day, speciality dining, free and easy activities and more, giving you an honest review of our experience. If you’re planning a quantum-class cruise ship vacation, these cruise review will be helpful!

It’s the final sea day of our incredible back-to-back cruise on Quantum of the Seas—and what a way to wrap it up! 🚢

In this honest and reflective vlog, we take you through a day of beautiful ocean views, sleep-ins, crew kindness, and an unfortunate incident—a theft onboard. But thanks to the amazing staff, we felt supported and safe.

We also share some final thoughts on cruise ship design, spend time with friends onboard, and finish our evening with a delicious meal at Jamie’s Italian. This video is a mix of real cruise life moments—the good, the bad, and the unexpectedly heartwarming.

💬 Drop a comment if you’ve ever had a moment that challenged your cruise—but still left you feeling grateful.

A hotel stay in the heart of Sydney!
In this video, we give you a full room tour and hotel review, including what we loved (and didn’t!) about this central Sydney hotel.

Before boarding Royal Caribbean’s Ovation of the Seas, we stayed at Rydges Sydney Harbour (Australia Square) – just 850m from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay.

We highlight features like the bedding, bathroom, and location making it one of the **best hotels in sydney**. So tune in and find out if this is a great choice for **Sydney stays**.

📍 Location-wise, it’s hard to beat – walking distance to Sydney’s major attractions like The Rocks, Circular Quay, the Sydney Opera House and, of course, the cruise terminal.

✨ Whether you’re a cruiser looking for a pre-cruise hotel or just after a city break, check out if Rydges Australia Square is worth the price tag!
