Sail Date: Apr 2013
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

After reading the previous review I was skeptical of the condition of the ship. Our biggest problem was the fact that were subject to very high rate for internet. I understand it was only on our ship, the rate was $249.00 for the whole cruise or $60.00 for a 24 hour period. Highway robbery.

Embarkation: Got to the terminal from our hotel around 1 pm. Check in was smooth, no wait to board the ship. We were in our cabin by 1:30 pm.

A/C: some of the decks had some a/c issues. The lido problem previously described seemed to be caused by lack of doors to the outside deck which both exterior and interior close automatically. There was always at lease a 20 knot wind across the deck causing the warm air to blow in from the doors to the outside. The central section of the lido remained cool.

Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

Cabin VC

Cabin 5178. Has shower which is small but serviceable, had a very long vanity which made storing our essentials a snap. There are three closets, two have bars for hanging clothes. Other closet has shelves and houses the safe. A small night stand with 2 small drawers on either side of the bed. Two large drawers, one under each side of the bed gave plenty of storage. Beds were high enough to store suitcases under.
