Review Summary

We sprung for a Neptune Suite not knowing just how great the perks were.  They started by special boarding privileges, then all the Champagne we wanted in the Neptune Lounge embarkation day and finally a super large Suite with king size bed. Plus a super large balcony with 2 lounges chairs w/ottomans and a table with 4 chairs.

 

The Neptune Lounge, only open  to those of us that had a Neptune Suite, was great. We had breakfast there each morning and a snack every afternoon. The two person staff there took care of everything we could ask for. It was my birthday on this cruise and they decorated our cabin with balloons and happy birthday signs. Printed out our bill anytime we wanted too.  In fact, we hardly ever had to go to the reception desk for anything.

 They made reservations for us in the specialty restaurants and even took back our books to the library.  The lounge was never crowed and very comfy.

 Now we are spoiled and will always remember the "Royal Treatment" the Neptune Suite provided.

Ship Tip

If you can afford it, get a Neptune Suite. It is like being on a different ship from the rest of the passengers.

Stingray City best shore excursion. Most all others just so so.
