Traveled with children

to summarize: there were some really good things, but few and far between. biggest beef was with service and our rooms (6342 and 6340) that were falling apart, they didn't do much about it.

Clean ship, rooms were pretty tight, we had inside cabins. showers were bigger but hard not to get water all over the floor and not much ventilation in bathroom, very humid - a bathing suit hung inside shower on string all night was still very wet in the morning.

I will be honest, there was some great things:

Cabin Review

Interior

Cabin 4D

terrible as stated above. water leak from far Pullman bunk. don't put anything under there.

THE RESTROOM DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE!! so you cant keep it closed. also you CANT LOCK the restroom door because it doesn't close. also these rooms have no where to sit down except the bed, and when you have both bunks down its hard not to bump your head (I did it several times).

Port Reviews

Half Moon Cay

nice beach, perfect day. just really expensive the drink there. I guess they give you a free lunch but $10 (including automatic tip) pina colodas just irritate me after a while. I know this is typical cruise prices but at least on a regular island you can choose to drink wherever you want.

Port Canaveral (Orlando)

not sure if it was my timing but showed up a little earlier then stated embarkation time and the line up was HUGE. took about 1.5 hours to get onto the ship. never had this line up ever before. not sure if that's the ports fault or security or whatever.
