My DH, DS (11 months old) and I went on the 8/3/2014 sailing. We pretty much took it as a "do-over" of the not-so-fun time we had on the Magic in March. Let me tell you, this was an incredible trip.

Ship- I was a little nervous that we would get bored on a smaller ship than the Magic. Prior to the Magic we had sailed on Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas, which is much bigger and had so many amenities. This was not the case. There was always something for us to do. The staff were constantly cleaning, painting, scrubbing, etc. It was a beautiful ship, very clean, and very well-maintained.

Room- We booked 3 weeks out and just did it on the cheap since airfare from OKC to MIA was $500+ per person. We were also worried that we would get claustrophobic not having a balcony, with an infant nonetheless. We booked an interior guarantee and was assigned 6432. This was also a misconception I had. We slept so good, the room had plenty of space to walk around (even with a stroller) and space for my son to play on the floor with his toys. There was just as much closet space as we had on the Magic. Our room steward was Jolly and he was phenomenal! Plus, he was good with our baby. Meaning, he wasn't annoyed when Beckett spilled his formula powder all over the floor. Read more
