If going to Perfect Day at Cocoa Cay get a Cabana on chill Island it was the highlight of our trip. We did not travel with children so the adult pampering was awesome. We had our own server for food and drinks. I felt guilty at first. She assured me all was well and to relax. We tipped her well and made great memories.
For new cruisers: it would be to their benefit to book a room near the elevator which would eliminate you from walking one end of the ship to the other since the ship is like a city on the ocean. You will keep walking in the wrong direction, but being near an elevator will help give you a sense of direction.
If you actually want to do the on-board activities, make sure that you read all the rules and plan your entire vacation around the limited windows to do them.
So much to do on the ship, even tough there id over 6,000 possible people on the ship, you never fell crowded except for the first day and last day on the ship (elevators).
It's a great ship and lots of fun. Dont disembark too early as it's a huge line to get off and the transportation area was insane. Took 90 minutes to get a ride away from the terminal.

Don’t be afraid of the size of this ship. We never felt overwhelmed or too crowded at any venue on this ship. Very good design.
Have fun and enjoy!! Lots to do.

Enjoy it all.
Book shows ASAP!
Make sure to make reservations for shows.
WAsh ur Hands!! And go see our Servers in the Main Dinning room they r Amazing!
It's a beautiful ship and there are lots of things to see.
Go out and enjoy the shows! There is typically at least a show you will like. We had a lot of fun when we managed to step out of our room.
Be sure to bring comfortable shoes. My smart watch said we walked 5 miles a day just on the ship.
Just go with an open mind and get ready to have a blast! Relax in the Solarium if you want quiet down time. Try the specialty restaurants!

Like everyone says book your shows prior to boarding it will save you a lot of time.
I recommend it
