Ship tip
You won't be disappointed. The Neptune Suites are luxurious.
I enjoy this excursion to the beach but I'm very disappointed the way the clamshells are distributed. You have to walk down the beach and hope to find an employee to set up a clamshell for you. It took us almost a half hour to get this accomplished. There has to be a better way!
We are very much HAL loyalists and will be sailing on our 3rd cruise on the Rotterdam in 3 weeks. This will be our 10th cruise on HAL. I know this cruise line isn't for everyone, but if you prefer a more layed back ADULT cruise, this is it.
