Additional details
We flew into Ft. Lauderdale one day prior to the cruise. Stayed at Sleep Inn & Suites in Dania Beach. Pick up at airport was very quick and the driver was courteous. Very nice quiet place to stay with plenty of shopping nearby for last minute cruise needs. Breakfast was just right before we left for Miami. We have stayed several times here pre-cruise, Staff has always been very polite and helpful . We had early arrival and they had one(of 3) rooms ready so we had a place to put our luggage and change. Used QLS transport for shuttle to Miami and then back to Ft. Lauderdale after the cruise. We have used them for many years, they are an excellent service.
Embarkation: We had 11AM time frame and when we arrived we went right in and had zone 2 boarding. We only waited a short time and we boarded the ship. Very quick easy process for boarding. Our luggage was in our room very quickly.
Our room steward was Marco and he was unbelievable. What a great young man, he treated us like gold taking care of our every need. We had a balcony room on 9th floor and the room was very nice.
Cabin Review
Balcony
The Balcony Cabin was very nice. Would recommend a balcony cabin, Room Steward Marco was awesome !!! Only change to the cabin compared to the Breeze and other ships was that there needs to be more shelves in the closets instead of open space.
Port Reviews
Grand Turk
Great time. The service was excellent. Joseph and Clint were wonderful. Beach was very nice, lunch was very good. Never waited for a drink. Bartender Joseph and DJ Clint remembered us from last year when we did the same excursion. What a great time !!
