Where to begin...well after quite a number of cruises on RCCL, I can honestly say I have been won over by Princess! This was the best cruise we have ever been on
For our transportation to the ship and from the ship to the airport, the hotel (Gallery One) recommended a gentleman by the name of Tony. He charged $25 to go to the pier and $25 from the ship to the airport. That was the same as the cab fare and he had a very nice comfy SUV that had great air conditioning! His company is T J Shuttles and he offers transportation in Ft. Lauderdale and to Miami. He is very prompt and professional and I recommend him highly!
We were in an aft suite, which we just loved! Now I never want anything but an aft cabin. We were very impressed with Princess and the way everything is handled, from embarkation to disembarkation. It took us just about 15 minutes to check in and we were escorted right onboard. We were led to our cabin immediately upon boarding. While our cabin was different than those we have had on RCCL, I quickly fell in love with it. We were very pleased with all the perks that came with booking a suite. Unlimited free internet, free laundry, free mini bar set up, corsage and boutonniere on the first formal night, very nice toiletries (I love the eucalyptus products!) Our balcony was wonderful as well!
Great cabin and location! Quiet location with a wonderful view.
