We we're a group of 6 with 2 children under 5.
We left from San Juan Puerto Rico after a 2 night stay prior to boarding the ship, which I highly recommend. We stayed in Old San Juan and toured the old forts and spent some time on our balcony over looking the streets. Amazing atmosphere!
Our Embarkation was effortless. Less than 15 minutes from arriving we were already on board as we had no wait and walked straight up to the check in counter.
As noted above, starting to show signs of wear and tear. Especially the couch and the bathroom. Mirrors, shower and counter.
