Had a wonderful time on the Breeze! The ship is very well designed and only 1 floor had an obstruction where we couldn't go forward to aft completely. The décor is reminiscent of a summer beach with a golden sun shining down and was very relaxing. The bed mattresses were very comfy. The lido deck furniture was very nice and comfy. There were plenty of seats for everyone, except on the serenity deck which was very popular of course. The Thrill Theater is not to be missed, even though is an additional cost and was very fun. The sky course was great although for some reason the easy side was blocked off on a few sections, forcing myself on the more difficult side (300lbs weight limit for the harnesses if you are wondering)

My Mom and I arrived a day early from the sailing to enjoy the Kennedy Space Center in Port Canaveral. I highly recommend going if you haven't before. We were the first to arrive and stayed all day till they closed. All the exhibits were wonderful and well worth the trip. There are lots of shuttles to the port terminals if you need a ride and even Uber operates in the area if for some reason you have trouble with a shuttle.

Embarkation was a bit hectic even with the appointment times. The staff didn't bother to actually look at our ticket and ushered us into the early/late line which wasn't moving instead of the on time line. Once we got the attention of a staff member and asked about which line we should be in and got into the correct line, everything went smoothly. I love that all the sail and sign cards came already punched for lanyards, which everyone seems to have accepted now, although I would suggest bringing your own lanyard to save some money. Disembarkation was fine, although was made worse by people who clearly weren't following instructions and leaving before their deck/zone was called causing a severe back log in the lobby/terminal.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin 8E

We were in cabin 10207 on Deck 10 which was a great spot for us. The views from the balcony were great and unobstructed in any way. really enjoyed being close enough to the Lido deck that we didn't have to travel far to get to the fun. There were no distrubances on the decks above of below and being far away from the elevator, it was really peaceful. However being so close to the bow of the ship, you can feel the ship's movement quite a bit, so if you are prone to seasickness I wouldn't recommend it.
