It's been a year since we took this cruise, but the reviews on this site are so helpful to others that I figured I'd add mine. Forgive my lack of *too* many details, though. Time makes you forget some of the little things. Haha.
This was our first cruise - the 4 night Bahamas cruise. My mother got it for us as a Christmas present. I was really nervous because it was my first REAL travel experience, and I was a little overwhelmed prior to leaving.
Embarkation was an absolute BREEZE!! We got to the port early, where our luggage was taken right to our cabin for us. I had followed the instructions in our documentation to the letter, so we were able to check right in and board immediately. I was happy and relieved to see how easy it was! Our cabin was a bit on the small side. We were on deck 2, and we had an oceanview cabin with a small porthole. Really though, it was just a room for sleeping, keeping our stuff and getting ready to go *wherever* - so the size didn't bother me. I'm glad we got the small window though, because I think an inside cabin would have been difficult to wake up in - not knowing when the sun was up, etc. Every time we left our cabin, we returned to find it immaculate, with a different towel animal every day!
