Cabin: Interior Stateroom

I traveled with 2 teens (18 &15) and we all had a blast. I was pleasantly surprised that with the exception of Windjammer breakfast the boat never felt crowded.

Food: We ate breakfast every morning in the Windjammer and it was great. It was the same every morning but because there were so many choices that you could easily eat something different every day. We had lunch there a few days as well - awesome French fries & salad bar. We ate every night in the dining room and everything was awesome. Each evening the selection was a wide variety of things too. We had pizza at Sorrento's which was great.

Drinks: I loved the fact waiters walked around the pool area with frozen drinks and a bottle of liquor - they were all great. I bought the unlimited soda package online before we left for my teens and it worked very well. I didn't care for the flavored water that was served with lunch in the Windjammer but they also offered unsweetened tea. I had a glass of red wine every night with dinner with dinner that was good.

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

My only complaint relates to price structure of cabins - I initially was planning for it to be just 2 of us which would've been about $650/person. When checked out the price to add my 15 year old I had to pay an addition $1000 for him. I assume it is because we needed a room that could house 3 people but the increase in peer person price didn't make sense to me.

Instructions on how to use the shower would be good, it took the 3 of us and a number of cold showers before we figured out that you had to push the red button to get hot water.
