My DH and I returned from our Dream cruise last Saturday from Port Canaveral. We are in our 60's, this was our third Carnival cruise also w/Legend & Glory, once with Holland and twice with Royal Caribbean.

We flew Airtran from Indianapolis on Wed. prior to the cruise for an extended stay in Cocoa Beach and rented a car from Budget. Thanks to a review from another cruise critic member who posted a promo code we were able to rent our car at a great savings. (Y937800).

We made our hotel reservation thru Priceline (no bidding) at a discounted rate at the Best Western Ocean Beach. It is an established complex and have been doing extensive remodeling. The front desk was extremely friendly and kind enough to let us check in early. She gave us a great upgrade from the courtyard room we originally booked to a two room suite with balcony with an ocean view. We were both thrilled. We had never been upgraded anywhere before. Everyone was very friendly including the breakfast room staff.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Typical Carnival cabin, roomy, many storage areas. Balcony not deep but serviceable with two chairs and one small table.

Can hear some noise due to open area near forward elevators from deck 3 even with door shut. Not constant.

You can hear music, etc from the main pool area from the balcony bu now too loud.

Like the location above but close to all on the Lido deck as well as convenient to the Encore Theater and when disembarking to different ports. Good location for Movies Under The Stars.
