Sail Date: Jan 2011
Cabin: Signature Superior Verandah Suite

We were married in September and took the Jan.8-15 7-night Mexican Riviera Cruise for our honeymoon. It was my first cruise and my wife's third.

We flew into San Diego around 11am and were warmly greeted by name by the staff. They directed us outdoors to a nice full-sized tour bus. We boarded the bus, and since we were the first to board the bus we sat in the front seats and waited for the other passengers. After waiting about two minutes, the driver hopped in and off we went, the only ones on the entire bus!

--So far so good, but I had heard nightmare stories about boarding, long lines, etc. Perhaps because we were early, there was no nightmare, and we were checked in and on board our ship all in less then fifteen minutes.

Cabin Review

Signature Superior Verandah Suite

Cabin SY

Tons of closet space, fantastic balcony, best 'on-vacation' bed I've slept on in years, great use of mirrors, nice TV, plenty of lighting choices, plenty of bathroom space, including two bathroom cabinets.
