Review summary

The ports were great. I enjoyed everything about the cruise except for the size of my room. It was too small for 3 people. In my past experience I had a room to myself. I had no idea that I would have the same size room for 3 people or I would have upgraded. It was very tight and there wasn’t enough room for all of us to unpack our clothes.

Rooms can fit up to 4 usually, although I agree that would be tight. One thing to keep in mind, if you had a room to yourself then you also paid for 2 people. Rooms are all based on double occupancy to start with.

What room did you have? Was it an inside cabin or balcony?
