Ive been very busy since returning from our December 11 Carnival Conquest cruise. Christmas, New Years, and now back to work. If I dont write this review now I never will. I always appreciated people taking the time to write a review and want to do the same.

On December 10 we flew from Oklahoma City to Bush International and arrived to chilly, damp weather. But that was okay because we were on vacation. We had arranged for Galveston Limo to pick us up at 12:30 and were told it would take 2 hours to make it to Galveston. We were picked up by a large transportation bus. By the time we made 3 more stops to pick up additional passengers and drop them off at various hotels, it was 4:00 pm before we made it to our hotel. I was not very happy with the discrepancy in transport times. I believe you should be told it will take several hours due to picking up additional passengers and dropping them off. We probably would have made alternate transportation plans to get us to Galveston.

We always fly in a day early because you never know what the weather may do or what delays may come up. We stayed at the San Luis Resort. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas! The staff was very cordial and helpful. They have a fabulous pool area, which was heated. If it had been a bit warmer I am sure we would have enjoyed using it. We walked across the street and ate dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. There were several other places to eat but we were tired and just wanted something close. We enjoyed breakfast at the IHOP the following morning. Wonderful place to stay. Cost was $139/night. Read more
