Cabin / Stateroom

Was supposed to be a 2 level upgrade, but steward confirmed it was a standard room. Small and basic, good storage.

Ship tip

If want to see real islands, this is not the cruise to take. Very stylized shore "created villages". No sense of island life.

Mini-US shopping center - no sense of the island at all. Had to go through duty free shop to get onshore.
