Sail Date: May 2014
Cabin: Stateroom with French balcony

AmaWaterways was our honeymoon and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first river cruise (we've cruised Caribbean and Alaska on larger ships).

The ship is small, as are all river cruises, which makes it perfect to get to know people on board, the staff, etc.

Embarkation: We didn't realize when we arrived that we were about 3 hours early for check in. There was no one collecting bags from early arrivers, though they did provide transportation from the airport, so they knew we were coming. They were in the midst of disembarkation and cleaning from the previous cruise. Just think things could have been smoother for early birds. We went for a walk and came back at check in time to a full complement of staff greeting people, almost intimidating.

Cabin Review

Stateroom with French balcony

Room: small - what else would you expect. But the bed was at least a queen, if not a bit bigger. The bathroom was huge in comparison to what I was expecting. Definitely not closet sized. We opted for a "french balcony" and I am VERY glad we did. While not a full balcony, there is a railing and the sliding door opens all the way into the wall. We slid the two chairs and table so we were basically sitting outside.
