Review summary

This was an unusual cruise. I found out just before we sailed that I was losing my job. Then, on the third day of the cruise, my wife tripped and injured her foot leaving her unable to walk normally and in a lot of pain. So, I spent most of my time feeling sorry for myself, and alternately, for her. We did not get off at any of the ports because of her injury.

 

However, I won $80 on a slot machine in the casino and thoroughly used my Cloud 9 Thallassotherapy pass. The thermal suites and pool were very relaxing. We also tried accupunture and a hot stone massage! Wonderful. 

 

The Breeze is heavily air-conditioned in all public areas. Cold as the arctic tundra in the Atrium. I had to buy a sweater just to sit and listen to music by the Breeze Bar. Note: Bring a sweater.

 

Bar staff was very attentive. We had the Cheers package and enjoyed trying a variety of tropical drinks. Waiter in the Red Frog pub was excellent, and there was always plenty of evening activities in the pub foyer including beer pong and trivia.

 

Excellent music and the Cruise Director, Schwartz, was a ham-bone. He was really good with the kids, getting them involved in skits and activities. 

 

I will sail on the Breeze again when possible, and highly recommend this ship and its crew.

Staying on board ain't that bad, I prefer it to avoid the port hassles.

Sorry to hear about your job and wife's injury, but this is the perfect example to those who complain about their cruise experience. You made the best of your time on the ship.
