The ship is lovely.
Cocktail time was very expensive. You are not permitted to bring on water or soda and there is a charge for each bottle of water. My husband purchased a soda card which turned out to be a bargain at the price they charged for soda. (You can also get cans of soda with the card which is a better bargain) I brought several bottles of sealed wine at ABC Store in Honolulu only to be greeted with an unexpected "corkage" charge of $15.00/bottle at check in which was was much less than the $35/bottle charge on ship.
(However, I could drink the wine anywhere on board) You can't purchase bottles of vodka etc. as on other ships - poured drinks were $10-$14./each so be prepared. One surprise was a charge for scooped Gelato.....no charge for soft serve.
Cabin #11014 is on the starboard (right) side of the ship. From the right side, you will see all ports coming in and going out.
Recommend a B6 cabin on deck 11 because the balcony is larger than most of the other balconies. Our cabin steward brought us 2 add'l chairs and we were able to fit 4 comfortably each evening for sail-away. Cabin #11012, 11014, 11024 & 11026 as well as the same cabins on the port side have the larger balconies. I got an extra small table from the pool and put it on the deck to hold extra drinks and snacks.
Very quiet floor and on the same deck as the pool, hot tubs and buffet. The cabin has plenty of storage space with 4 drawers and shelving in the closet. Bring a power strip to charge phones, cameras, laptops etc. My husband has a c-pap and our cabin steward, Eston, brought an extension cord for his use. He was very attentive and the best at making towel buddies as we returned one day to find them playing cards on our bed! The bed was very comfortable and made into a small king. Good cabin value for the money on a 7 day cruise.

Make sure that the car rental companies will pick you up at the ship. Otherwise it;s a $30. cab fare each way.
