Cabin: Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

This was just a first basic cruise to get our feet wet, figuratively speaking. We were overall pleased, and are now interested in cruising again someday; but really didn't like how we were nickel-and-dimed constantly. Additional tipping opportunities were constantly presented to us, required to pay for photos (would've been nice to have at least one included), expensive shore activities ($20 for water park access at Coco Cay?!), high onboard premium activities prices, pressured to have premium dinners in Chops all the time, etc. For our first cruise and vacation, we were seeking less of the pressures and stresses of civilization during it, not more of them. Also, as first time cruisers, I wish there were some guide or way to get advice about how to take advantage of all the ship's services and features, too (feel like we may have missed out on some things). Other than that, the crew was exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the food was really good.

Older ship could've used some paint and details, but overall very clean feeling and comfortable.

Lots of walking, but lots of character worth seeing.
