Great room, bad politics, and lousy weather make for poor cruise experience.

We are experienced cruisers.

I got an email after we booked asking if I'd like to know of deals on upgrades. I said yes. Then I got a phone call asking if I'd like to upgrade fro the JS we booked to an OS for $700. We just had a death in the family and also lost two friends over 6 months, so we needed a break. We took the offer.

Cabin 1320 was jaw dropping in size and appointments. We had breakfast served the next morning on the huge veranda and loved the experience. We had dinner delivered in our dining area each night after that. One evening the duck we ordered turned out to be chicken. I called my friend Svetlana and she corrected the problem in 10 minutes and threw in an extra souffle.

Cabin Review

Owner's Suite

Cabin OS

Spacious room with big veranda. Great for dining. With 50 mph winds the sliding door gets noisy.

We enjoyed eating in often and didn't need to get into our formal wear. We loved that.

We will try to do more suites if we get similar bargain rates.

Port Reviews

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

Just OK.

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

The tour to Hell is getting old and the Tiki Beach is just OK.

Cozumel

Place and food were OK. Service good. Lousy weather kept us out of the ocean.

Falmouth

Our tour was scrapped so we tried kayaking. It was fun and the tour was interesting. Then went o a beach that was OK.
