Thanks to my fellow Cruise Critic reviewers, my trip on the Fascination was wonderful. We arrived at Port of Miami at 11 a.m. and after a smooth boarding process, we were on the Lido Deck by noon enjoying a wonderful buffet lunch and watching the Miami skyline. Our cabin was ready at 1:00 p.m. so we unpacked and prepared for the afternoon. The cabin was much nicer than we expected. It was very roomy with a large picture window. The bed was very comfortable and we had plenty of storage for our clothes and belongings.
We spent the afternoon around the pool deck. At 4pm we set sail and enjoyed the setting sun while watching South Beach disappear behind us. Our dinner was wonderful and we enjoyed our tablemates. Speaking of food: The dining room food and atmosphere was great. We only ate dinners in the dining rooms. We ate our lunches on the Lido Deck. The choices in Coconuts Grill, the pizza shop, and the deli area were awesome, and the food can be taken outside onto the deck for a great view while eating. I recommend the eating area off the back of the Coconut Grill just behind the pizza & deli area. For breakfast, we ordered daily room service (FREE) and enjoyed coffee, fruit, and croissants in our room before going topside for made-to-order omelettes on the deck!!
The entertainment is varied and enjoyable. Many lounges, and showrooms to enjoy. The nightly show in the Palace showroom is always good. Comedians were very funny. So much to do, so little time!!
