Well designed as a large Queen-sized berth.

Ship tip

For "serenity" go to 3rd deck above pool-great shower to refresh. Get to evening shows EARLY...lateness is extremely disruptive. You won't gain weight if you use the stairs & stay active walking NASSAU (and visit their great national art museum ) If you gamble & booze it up, bring mucho bucks!

Ports of call

New York, New York
