Let me preface by saying I have been all over the carribean the past 10 years, but via all inclusive and thought I would try a cruise with 8 of my other friends. I am very much a beach, off the beaten path kind of traveler. I like to see the culture and stay busy while sunning. It has been the MOST expensive trip I have been on ever.
Embarkation: Well, Im pretty sure this is quick with so many people for a reason. They have it figured out. We were in a huge line and on the boat in no time. Very efficient and our bags were right at our room door.
Room: Well we asked for a king bed twice and even requested it on the website and through our booking agent. Nope, twin beds. But thankfully they remedied this quickly.
