Both and that’s the problem! 😢

I am absolutely the wrong person to ask since we spend most of our time in the casino. DO NOT DO THAT! 😁 Helen

Which ports? If you’ve never been there before I would suggest a tour around the island or a hop on/hop off bus.

Most spring breakers here in Florida gravitate to Carnival…more party and a lot less money. We are leaving March 16 on the Nieuw Amsterdam. I purposely picked that date since that’s when spring break ends for most colleges. I’m keeping my fingers crossed! 😍

The Nieuw Amsterdam is one of HAL’s mid size ships and holds about 2100 people. You won’t find rock climbing walls or go carts like on some RCCL ships. You also won’t find a million kids. What you will find is some of the best service on any ship. There are multiple music venues, bingo, trivia and various games. I believe there is an LGBQT meeting every day. The ships are much smaller than most RCCL ships and easy to navigate. It’s a much more laid back experience. Helen

Actually you can’t smoke right in front of the bar. If I remember correctly they put in some fake shrubs to show where the smoking area starts (at the end of the bar) and the smoking area is almost entirely covered. Fair warning…it does get crowded up there but we are the friendliest people on the ship since everyone else hates us! 😁 Helen -
If there’s a Tamarind on the ship we always book for our first nite. Gives the dining room a chance to settle down for those boarding for the first time. After that we try to do specialty restaurants on sea days except gala nights. We know 1st gala nite is usually the first sea day. After that it’s a roll of the dice. Helen
