We just got unpacked from our 6 night Caribbean cruise on the Eurodam and I thought I'd post a review before I sleep another night. It was a great cruise, a Christmas present from us to our kids (well, really to us all but this was their first cruise) which turned out to be a family affair. My parents, sister, nephew and in-laws all went. We stayed in three verandah quads (6031, 6033, 6035). Our weather the entire trip was absolutely perfect and smooth sailing!

Our hotel shuttle arrived at the pier around noon. Check-in was smooth and we were on the ship and depositing our carry-ons in no time. We met our room steward, Wuziker (or Wuz for short). He and his assistant (I can't remember his name) were wonderful. Having our twelve and ten year old with us, I was afraid the room would be hard to keep clean, but I was constantly on them to put their things away, and Wuz and his assistant did the rest. Every time we went back things were tidyed and the sheets smoothed. The kids loved the towel animals, especially the monkey. The room was a little tight for the four of us, but we made due with the space we had and the verandah really helped.

We got the notice that I think might be commonplace now, saying they'd been experiencing a higher amount of norovirus and asked us to remember to use the hand sanitizers, which we all did religiously. The salt and pepper shakers came out about the third day or so and I never heard of anyone being sick. I had a chest infection coming on the ship and was on medication, so I was a little worried my immune system would be down, but no problems at all. Read more
