The ease of access to the Anthem out of Bayonne NJ was the primary reason we selected this cruise. Driving from south Jersey was so easy and allowed us to take whatever amount of clothing/shoes etc. we wanted to. no worry of airlines losing luggage etc.
The Port area was so very organized and made boarding a great experience.
We really wanted the two days at sea each way, as it gave us time to fully enjoy he ship to the fullest. Previous cruises were too short and did not have the sea days.
Royal Carribeans Private Island is awesome. So much to do - our kids did the zip line and parasailing - both were excellet. We floated on the beach mats and ate!!! and drank!!!
