Cabin / Stateroom

We were in Cabin D208, and it was perfect. Glad we had the balcony. I would not have enjoyed this cruise as much without it.

Ship tip

Enjoy all of the amenities and don’t be afraid to ask lots of questions.

A beautiful city. Get on the Hop-on-Hop-off bus and take a city tour. Well worth it.

We’re on the cruise now. The WiFi works great and is less expensive if purchased ahead of time. Seems like it was $14 per day for 4 devices (not each). Among the 3 of us, we have 4 devices. The included beverages are fine for us with an occasional splurge. We did purchase bottled water for the room- again ahead of time. That is a wonderful thing! It’s s nice, clean ship. Everyone has been so nice and helpful. I’ve enjoyed the Naturist talks. We have late dinner and a 10 year old with us, and the evening shows have seemed too adult and too late so far.
