Review summary

This was only our 4th cruise, and first out of Long Beach. We arrived a day early to  be able to relax and enjoy some of Long Beach's sights before our cruise. On embarkation morning we arrived early at the port as we always do, so we can people watch and have the excitement build even more. Everything went perfectly. Having purchased FTTF, our room was ready when we boarded, and our luggage arrived by the time we finished lunch. The ship is beautiful! The crew were really friendly and our cabin steward was great. We enjoyed our waiter on the 2nd night so much that we asked for his section each evening (we had YTD). He had us laughing every evening, and we looked forward to dinner mainly because of him.

The highlight was meeting John Heald, and having him suggest we get a photo together. We had taken a small Canadian keepsake gift for his daughter, and he showed his appreciation by meeting us and giving us some swag. We really apreciated that too. We enjoyed Cabo, Mazatlan and PV, but will be heading back to the Caribbean next spring. This was a fantastic cruise, and we would recommend the Miracle to anyone.

Happy cruising!

Thanks for your feedback. Me and my BFF board the miracle next Saturday so excited. This is my 6th cruise. We did the FTTF and the YTD as well. Can't wait.

Sounds like you had a great experience. It's great to hear such positive feedback from fellow cruisers. We board the Miracle in 36 days!

If you want FTTF I suggest you purchase it soon after booking your cruise. I didn't know about it when I booked and when I went to purchase it it was sold out 😕
