We are locals and wanted to do a quick getaway. Sure the spring break crowd was in full effect, but hey a vacation is what YOU make of it. We had such a blast onboard Indy! I'm usually a planned activity type of person and have the next days activities chosen the night before, however my boyfriend is the opposite. So this was my first no plans cruise. We spent a lot of time by the pool, another first for me. We did take advantage of the drink package and found it was well worth it for us and plan on purchasing it again in the future. My favorite meal is breakfast and I was delighted to find a crepe station one morning in the Windjammer. We ate breakfast in the MDR one morning and the french toast was amazing!! We did make it to dinner every night but one and our waitstaff was amazing. While the service was a tad bit slow at times we were fine with it - no plans remember. I did order the filet from Chops one night in the MDR and it was phenomenal. We went to Johnny Rockets twice, once for lunch and the second time was when we overslept and missed dinner. Thankfully they were open till 11:30! We went to 3 shows: the love and marriage (cruise classic), the adult comedy show, and Grease. The first two were regular cruise entertainment. Grease was truly the WOW! factor. I loved it, musicals aren't my boyfriends thing, but he went and enjoyed it as well. We met some amazing people this trip and they helped make our vacation that more memorable.

Cabin Review

Junior Suite

This was the first time we had a suite and it surpassed all exceptions. I think we were truly spoilt with the extra space and the tub. It will be had to go back. Our room attendant was wonderful and really helped make some special memories for us.
