Sail Date: Oct 2013

We arrived about 10am and parked using EZ cruise parking across from the terminal. EZ cruise was the way to go with us since you could just roll your luggage to the terminal and not worry about loading them into a transfer and unloading again at the ship. We did the F2F and will do it again, it was well worth the $50 per cabin. After a little confusion on where we should go, we found the F2F line and we on the ship by 11am. Our cabin was already made and ready to go.

Cabin: We had a balcony (#6452) and enjoyed it the entire trip. We had a inside cabin on a previous trip and will only book a balcony from here on. Cabin was clean. There were a couple of light stains on the bedsheets and the "refrigerator" will cool your drinks about 10 degrees cooler that the room temperature. But our cabin steward was great! With the F2F our luggage was there by 1pm.

Ship: The ship was clean and most of the crew always looked at you as they passed you and said hello. About the only person that passed us by in the hallway twice that didn't even look at us, was James the CD. I am in my early 40's and a kid at heart. I would have to say the most fun I had on the ship was at the water park, miniature golf and in the arcade playing games. The rope course wasn't open one day during our stay.

Cabin Review

Room was clean and our steward was great. There were a couple of stains on the sheets but all in all the room was clean and kept clean. The refrigerator is a joke. It may cool your drinks 5-10 degrees cooler than just leaving them on the counter.
