Food and Dining

Great service and meals in the main dining room, Precious was amazing and made our two year old twins feel like princesses. Sushi was good. Try the Turkey sandwich heated with honey mustard. SeaDay brunch cantina burger was amazing! Dr. Seuss breakfast was more fun then delicious but still ok.

Cabin / Stateroom

Room was fine inside, but I should’ve paid more attention to the location or asked to be moved. We were right over the smoking area so with two small babies it kept us from using it as much as we wanted.

Umm so we did the train ride and I could’ve been a video game lol. People running beside the train to sell stuff, saw a naked homeless person (im from New York do nothing new). I’ve just never paid to see it before lol.

Best stop of the cruise! Wish we could’ve stayed there longer. Spent $40 for two chairs and an umbrella rental for the day. Brought snacks and drinks. The water was warm and clean, sand was soft and white. Amazing! 10 minute $15 cab from the port! Eagle Beach is awesome.

Be careful make sure you know the taxi info. We were told $25 for four adults at the info bus but the driver tried to charge us for both babies who are two and ride in our laps. We ended up walking around instead.
