You can enjoy a cruise in so many ways; you can be very active on and off the ship, mostly relax, get pampered, eat VERY healthy or indulge in too much of whatever entices you, and explore several different beautiful places in many ways. Key west, Grand Cayman and Jamaica are very diverse and fun places, easy to get around and find diverse adventures.

Even drinking on a cruise comes with many options. Sometimes at an all inclusive you feel like drinking too much, it is just a little too tempting. There is always something healthy you can drink for free on a cruise, when you don't want to indulge but it is available when you want to party that way. I like that I am not paying for too much drinking for myself or others.

The one criticism I would have- which applies to most cruise lines is the lack of general information on ports, beyond their excursions and shopping. However just do a little research on your own before hand; plenty of great information is available on here, or via Trip advisor and other travel sites. There are obvious advantages to going with your fellow cruisers on excursions but as long as you are reasonably careful you can get to many of the same places, or have other wonderful adventures, via public transportation or other local guides.

Cabin Review

2371 I like not being too high, for less swaying. I like having a lower window for natural light and a unique view. Our room was very comfortable and quiet, even though it was close to an elevator, which was quite convenient.
