It was a great experience! Awesome New Ship! Service was fantastic! We had so much fun and we were supposed to sail the Eastern Caribbean (St. Maarten, St. Thomas, Nassau), but due to weather conflicts, our Captain chose 2 new and exciting ports of call! so we went to Jamaica and Cozumel. Good decision with all that nasty weather and he kept us safe, which we all loved.

All that being said, i do wish we would have booked a different location for our Balcony room. We booked room 14144, a Balcony Spa Room, which is an upgrade from normal Balcony, it includes unlimited access to the Therma Spa. It was exactly what we wanted when we booked, not too far from stairs, full access to Therma Spa (which is amazing! You have to experience it! review below), but we just happened to be under the Ping Pong Tables! so we heard lots of pounding above us on Deck 15. If we book this ship again, which we might, I will definitely book on the Starboard side of the ship Aft. the one we did stay in, 14144 was Port and Fwd, near the Therma Spa, but we were at the buffet a lot more, which is Aft, and so is the Spice H2O, another great and quiet hangout during the day.

Ok, Therma Spa, you HAVE TO DO IT!! even if you don't book a Spa room, you have to pay the extra money on the 1st day to get access to it all week, it is so cool!!! you want to be in there and they have so much to really flush your toxins and relax with large windows looking out the front of the ship. lots of privacy, 2 saunas, 1 salt room, 1 steam room (that actually produces a lot of steam), plus what you see in the pics, a huge pool with several areas for jets to help relax you.
