Flew into Miami the day before our cruise stayed in La Quinta West Airport. Nice hotel, but the shuttle took over an hour to pick us up. I would recommend the hotel, but would take a taxi from the airport.
1st day- Kids wondered around. We were in an inside room that slept 4. It was nice and comfortable. The difficulty was dressing in the small bathroom. The housekeeping was outstanding the whole trip with fun towel animals each night! We brought our own luggage on which would have been a great idea because it made getting onto the ship easy except the elevators were broken and we ended up pulling the suitcases up 6 floors to Rosies. The fitness room was to busy to use the whole trip. I did love my facial.
Dinner was so wonderful. Hari and Igusta made our trip. We never missed a dinner at the Washington because of the fun services and terrific food.
