Since we live close by this cruise is so easy to do. A thirty minute cab ride and we're on the ship. It was easy getting off the last day and we were home quickly.
The owners suite with two balconies is our favorite cabin. We love the extra space and the two balconies gives us options depending on weather, wind etc. The only negative was a hard surface couch. It had no give (or bounce) when you sat on it. Everything else was great with a large bed, beautiful bathroom with double sinks, separate shower and jet bathtub.
Most of our dining was in specialty restuarants and our favorite was LaCucina followed by Cagney's. We thought LeBistro was not as great as in the past, since it moved to the former LaCucina space. We liked the intimate atmosphere of the old spot. Now it is larger and less intimate. The service was very good throughout the ship and we never waited long for a meal or drink. Even the buffet was easy to navigate.
Great room. Love the extra space and the two balconies. The cabin is located in a quiet area of deck nine.
Always a great destination. We love the beach so Horseshoe was our destination.
