My eldest son had never been on a cruise so I invited him to join me.

I have been on both Carnival and Princess in the past to the Mexican Rivera five prior cruises so I knew that there was a potential for a hurricane to hit and cancel any stop in Cabo or interfer with the opportunity to snorkel, which is what I like to do in port. But the price for the ocean suite including tax and port charges after the players club discount and taking off the cash they gave me was less than $1300 for the both of us so I booked the cruise.

Before getting to the litany of problems, let me tell the reader that getting on (and off) the ship via VIP was a breeze. That was the one and only benefit I had a a suite guest.

Cabin Review

Ocean Suite

Cabin OS

OS 7330 is a bigger than average sized room. IMHO it is not a suite as it is just one big room. Mid ship location with slightly larger balcony. Nice bathroom with full tub shower. Sound on TV does not work well even after having service twice during the cruise.
