Our family of 10 people went. We live in South jersey so we wanted to drive to our Departure Port, only 2 hour drive. Embarking and disembarking were very easy and non eventful. We went to Cape Canaveral and then on to the Bahamas, Stirrup Cay and Nassau. We chose cabins with a view and balcony, five of them on the 9th floor in the Aft. The rooms were very nice, they had a sliding door to the balcony overlooking the ocean. House keeping was excellent. Our package included food, drink and alcohol. Well worth it. This is the largest cruise ship I have been on, so everything was amazing the amount of restaurants on board, activities almost 24/7, bars all over the place, swimming pools seperate fro adults and kids. The staff was very helpful and caring for each of our needs. Very nice casino area and the night life was very active.
