We drove to Port Canaveral and took advantage of the "Park and Cruise" at Radisson Resort by the Port hotel the night before. The shuttle took us right over the next morning and check in was quick and easy...we were able to board immediately thanks to Fast Pass to Fun. We were in the pool with a drink before noon.

The ship is not new but it is nice. The decor is a bit wacky to me. Valor = presidential busts, eagles and what not. Not things I think of on vacation but OK.

We never had an issue getting a chair by the pool and we took advantage of both the main pool and the adults only pool. The cool thing about the adults only pool is that it had a retractable roof so if you have a rainy day, you can still have an enjoyable pool day there. There is also a yummy pizza stand open 24 hours in that area.

GREAT location....on pool deck level so easy access but no noise. Big room for a cruise ship. Loved our balcony and used it many times.
