Sail Date: Feb 2011
Cabin: Penthouse with Balcony

Embarking in Los Angeles was very quick. We had a suite and were the first in line. We had arrived at the terminal about noon.They escorted us to the VIP lounge, sandwiches and cold drinks were available. We were given our room cards. Waited about 35-45 minutes with the other suite passengers, then escorted on board by our butler Henry.

Cagneys was not open for lunch, they said they had not been cleared yet, so we headed to the buffet, no big deal. Since we were on early, hardly anyone was there..

All the crew greeted us with a hello and how are you, each and every day.

Cabin Review

Penthouse with Balcony

Cabin SG

We were is cabin 12512 on deck 12. This is a penthouse with balcony. There are 4 of these rooms on this deck. They are beautiful and very large. The balcony was square and held 3 wicker chairs and a round wicker table. Protected from the wind. The bed was king size and extremely comfortable, firm like we are used to. Sheets very white and smooth , almost silky to the touch.

The living area had a hide a bed sofa, coffee table and 2 low chairs.Two floor to ceiling windows gave a great view. We had a large flat screen tv on the wall and a DVD player with a selection of DVD's available no charge from the butler.The coffee machine made really good expresso, plenty of coffees available and also flavored teas.Lots of glass wear and coffee mugs and plates and silverware. The fridge was hidden in a cabinet under the desk area.

Bathroom-huge! Large glass shower, full size tub, vanity with double sinks, a selection of elemis spa products. Towels were large and plenty of them. Lighting was good. Plenty of mirrors.

Closets-4 double doors closets, bathrobes and slippers. Storage- massive amounts.

Our room stewards were the best. They knew our names from moment one. Cleaned the room twice a day. Our Butler Henry was great. The afternoon snacks were tasty and plenty of them. I even gave cookies to the kids 2 doors down. The room was very quiet, no noise from the rooms next to us or from the jogging and walking track above us. We slept like rocks every night..

All the staff on the ship were courteous and smiling.Everyone bend over backwards to make your trip pleasurable.

Would be book this cabin again- in a heartbeat!!! and also this ship..
