Traveled with another couple, no children.
Our tips for a successful cruise include:
~Get the UBP - We definitely enjoy having a few cocktails, especially on vaca! We made good use of the package and would have hated having to track our beverage costs. We never experienced an up charge - Patron Margaritas, Grey Goose on the Rocks, Moquito's.
Loved our room and the location. Truly the only difference between our room and our friends non-suite room was the bathroom and size of balcony. For us the bathroom size mattered. That said, it did not add value or enjoyment to our trip. Our friends snagged an angled, regular balcony (8738) highly recommend this room if your looking for added balcony space without the added price tag.
No excursion but thought I would do a shout out to Johns Car Service; Reliable, communicative and reasonably priced!! They made our journey from Fort Lauderdale to Port of Miami and back again smooth and enjoyable.
