Additional details
I have mixed feelings about this cruise. I wanted to like it so much but with the issues that I had to deal with from the start we not reassuring.
From the beginning, embarkation was an absolute nightmare. I stood in line to get through security and then I waited in another line to check in. The woman who checked me in was obviously not born here and her English was atrocious. In fact, I was so confused with what she wanted from me that the moment I got my seapass card, I walked away, not caring about what else she had to offer. After this, I waited in another line to take my picture for the seapass card. Finally, there was a snaking line going through the terminal onto the ship. The moment I got on the ship after all those lines, I shot back the free champagne they gave me.
Before going to lunch, we wanted to get a drink. When I ordered drink they said it was not included in my package and told me if I wanted the drink, I would have to upgrade my package or pay for the drink. This was my first encounter with Guest Services, who while helpful, gave me attitude. I ended up upgrading my package and it cost me almost $100.
Cabin Review
Deluxe Ocean View with Balcony 2B
Our Balcony Cabin was nothing entirely special. The beds were very comfortable and I slept very well during the cruise. The TV was spotty when we used it to look at our accounts. There is plenty of storage for clothing and our suitcases fit right under the beds. Nice little sitting area. Bathroom is a little on the small side but the shower is the biggest I have ever encountered on a cruise and there were real toiletries like a hotel instead of that one cleans all dispenser in the shower on other lines. The balcony was generous with two comfortable chairs that were put good use. The outside of the ship (including our balcony) is showing its age. They need to repaint the ship and clean the glass on the balcony.
Port Reviews
Nassau
Its interesting the first time you go there and them from there, it gets really boring. Atlantis is fun but its not worth the cost. I normally just stay on the ship than deal with all of those horrid vendors trying to sell you there stuff.
Key West
Love Key West. Millions of things to do here. You will love it, trust me.
