My wife, 19 month-old daughter, mother-in-law, and I went on a 5 day/4 night cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida to The Bahamas on September 2, 2012. My wife, daughter, and I stayed in room R-38. This was our first cruise ever so we are not in a position to compare to other ships, but can give an honest first impression. We paid $287 per person including taxes, which was a great deal compared to other departure dates.

Boarding at Port Canaveral was fairly simple, took less than 20 minutes, and we boarded soon after boarding began at 12:00 pm. The staff was very friendly and they had lunch waiting on the Lido deck. We used Park and Cruise, which was only $6.00 a day for parking

The room was little small for us, but typical for the second-cheapest room on the ship. It had a large king bed, small flastscreen, chairs, shower stall, sink, and toilet area. Body wash, soap, toothpaste, and shampoo were provided. There were three large closets and space underneath the bed. This was an inside cabin so there was no window. I am prone to getting seasick so I knew that an inside cabin on a low floor would be less rocky. The beds were very comfortable and the pillows were great. The room was very clean. There was a little desk area with a mirror. The AC worked great. One problem we had was that the doorway was too narrow for us to push a sleeping baby in a stroller through. TV channel selection and variety could have been better, but they did have ABC, NBC, CNN Cartoon Network, some sports channels, a Spanish station, and some movie channels. Read more
