Review summary

Nice weekend getaway for Central FL residents. Coco Cay is spectacular. No need to rent stuff ahead of time as there was plenty of seating options, especially on South Beach which we really enjoyed. Food was average. Not much variety.

Nice large balcony off the back of the ship. “Obstructed” view is due to large structural elements that are pretty far from the balcony … not particularly distracting. Private and secluded.
