Timing - itinerary - price!
My birthday is december 4th and this cruise was in perfect timing (1st_8th) and - although we had been on a western caribbean cruise before - we love belize and roatan, and we had never been to grand cayman. Finally, the price we paid for the cruise and excursions was truly an unbeatable deal! the onboard entertainment was very good and we really enjoyed the presentations (and antics) of dustin, the cruise director. our cabin stewards gemma and jeffry were always at the ready, and they knew our names from day one. the main dining staff (platinum) were great and always attentive to everyone's needs, both regular mealtime staff, and especially the seaday brunch staff. my only complaint for the entire cruise was that the public spaces (i.e. Main dining room, amber palace, and ebony cabaret) as well as our cabin was extremely cold for us florida seniors! other than that it was a very good cruise and we would sail on 'glory' again.
Cabin was very nice. Plenty of space and storage. only complaint was that the room was too cold and thermostat did not work properly!
Simply drove into town, parked and took shuttle to port!
Final port, and us seniors were a bit tired. but we did do some shopping near the pier area, and tho not as reasonable as downtown, there were some bargains to be found!
