My first cruise, just wanted a short, relaxing getaway to see if I would enjoy it.
Used EZAir and Princess Transfer, which were very smooth despite my flight getting cancelled and replaced by another. I was on the ship within 90 minutes of landing at LAX. There were plenty of helpful staff at the airport and the cruise terminal and almost no lines anywhere.
In general the ship was very nice, clean, did not feel crowded (except for maybe the Piazza), and easy to navigate. There were plenty of friendly and helpful crew around. The other passengers were to my liking: friendly and not too rowdy.
Cabin Review
Balcony
Cabin BE
I believe the Caribe (Deck 10) balconies are the largest on this ship, and partly covered so you can enjoy sun and shade. It was great for me because I spent a lot of time on my balcony and didn't mind that upper balconies looked down on mine. Bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in. Steward was friendly and helpful. Like the rest of the ship, the room was a little worn and the bathroom a little musty, but overall very comfortable.
Port Reviews
Ensenada
A nice drive and walk, but nothing spectacular. A fun way to spend the morning if you have nothing else to do.
Los Angeles
LA is a very busy and noisy port. While I imagine embarkation and disembarkation may be slower at other ports, it might still be more pleasant.
San Diego
Beautiful port, nice to just walk around even if not going into the city.
