We are just back from the Sun on its last voyage before dry dock and we had a great time! We (my husband and I) were traveling with our 23 month old, my parents, and 2 couples that are longtime friends of ours.

Stateroom: We booked an inside category JJ though I'd really wanted to spring for a balcony this time around. I ended up being pretty happy with our choice. The room had a nook with a couch as well as a large floor space where we were able to set up our pack 'n play. There was so much storage, too! The room never felt cluttered even though we brought lots of toys for our son.

Food: We ate in the main dining room a few nights and though the food was pretty good meals took about 90 minutes, which was pushing it for the little one. The rest of the nights we ate in the great outdoors area, which meant that everyone could eat what they wanted, when they wanted it. Great outdoors is nice because you can run in to the sports bar (great wings and chicken strips) or up to Las Ramblas (great everything and yes it's free). The salad bar at lunch and dinner was pretty great, and I was always able to find something for myself and my son. The hours of availability of food were much broader than other lines we have sailed, which is nice when you don't know when your child will want to eat on any given day. Freestyle dining is just the only option when you have a small child, in my opinion.

Good midship location, category JJ is great for a family with a small child as there is plenty of room to spread out. No noise from any side.
