  1. So the venue is unable to actually make a pickup because one is not taking a cruise line offered tour, although pickup is offered to all independent travellers online. Strange…. Why not just take a cab $50/60 each way and purchase only entrance tickets online?
  2. Starboard Midships Deck 3 - Outside opposite B Stairway - then all starboard Forward to outside opposite Stairway A (Theatre). But when sailing the smell can be driven all the way to aft staterooms starboard side.
  3. Here’s a link to a previous thread with lower price point options
  4. So pleased one’s mind is put at rest… Note to self…. Don’t forget camera or phone… Ambience and views have to be recorded and shared. Discreet service excellence and pampering will be delivered. Enjoy
  5. Note to @Spencer71 Do consider a private (small boat) charter for about 5 or 6 hours to the Baths and cruise etc.. We (a party of 6) did this and it took all the timetable, taxi, queueing angst away and we enjoyed the day. This was 7/8 years ago paying about $800 all in, plus entry fees. Which included rum, sodas, beers and a light chicken salad lunch. Best to consult the inter-web for current charters and prices. Also, in no doubt CC members will give their recommendations.
  6. To assist… If taken the full Baths journey, then suggest the purchase of reasonably priced water/beach shoes, as one will be clambering up/down rocks and walking through waist high seawater with sand/stones under foot, and waves crashing between the rocks towards one’s party. Note to self…. Bring a waterproof backpack for towels and clothing…Before entering the Baths, do purchase a bottle of Virgin Spice Rum, because at the end of the Baths’ adventure, one will discover a small sandy beach with beautiful views. A good place to pass the bottle to toast each other and take it all in.

  12. Weed can appear overnight, or in hours, caused by adverse weather conditions out at sea. Therefore, if Weed is a such a deal breaker, suggest one telephones the Marriott on the morning of one’s docking, for precise beach Weed information.
  13. One has previous posted this thought on teens/children. Cunarders and teens/children are diverse and well travelled, which gives a splendid opportunity for teens and children to form long term global friendships. Which, going forward, will potentially evidence a benefit in their personal and business lives. Business is mostly conducted on the basis of mutual trust and respect, which long term Cunard friendships can bring to the table.
  14. Just bring the finished product onboard in sealed packaging.
  15. Link to Marriott https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/skbrb-st-kitts-marriott-resort-and-the-royal-beach-casino/overview/?scid=f2ae0541-1279-4f24-b197-a979c79310b0
  16. Here’s a recent post from another thread…. We were just in St. Kitts on 2/9 and got the day pass at the Marriott. We got there at about 9:30am and had no problem purchasing a pass at the desk (they still give out wristbands). It is $49 per person and gives you access to the beach and the pool. At the beach, chairs are included as well as a cabana-like covered area. Cabanas at the pool are an additional $30. Also get a discount on food, drinks and spa services. Nice beach, very quiet and plenty of room.
  17. For Nevis (most easy/reliable option) take - https://bluewatersafaris.com/tour/nevis-beach-getaway/ They use Lime Bar for their trip. Try and take the short walk down the beach to Sunshine’s Bar for a few Killer Bees…. Killer Bees are also available as a takeaway. For a quiet retreat book a day pass at the Marriott Use this contact address for availability, day prices (rooms available), as it is monitored by hotel management. Or call.. reservation@stkittsmarriott.com Or use the TTE Protocol, being to just rock up, big smile, approach desk, flash cash, don’t tell them one is from Carnival (lie), take lift, press down, set up a bar tab, enjoy. For alternative St Kitts options… Current Government Website https://mystkittstouristinformation.com/taxis-buses-and-ferries-in-st-kitts-and-nevis/ Note it now includes ferries to Nevis information.
  18. A cab is the best way being about 3 miles from St. John’s
  19. Thank you…. Even better ROI
  20. As an aside, 100 shares will cost about $1500 plus fees. The ROI is excellent Benefits are….
  21. Just as an idea. At each port on the Voyage, consider purchasing a nice bottle of local wine/fiz for the sail away toast. PS. Note to self…. Embarkation, don’t forget mixers for the Gin (but supermarkets at ports of call will stock). Hint… Onboard Duty Free purchases…. Do one’s shopping early on the Voyage as leaving it until the last days may result in a polite “sold out” of one’s brand of choice. Hint…. Also, look at booking next cruise while onboard for extra OBC, over and above the Cunard Fare OBC. Aka - Free Money Hint… Then think about purchasing 100 Carnival Shares for even more OBC as a “Shareholder Benefit” - Aka - Free Money Enjoy
  22. During a Voyage, one has even rolled onboard a barrel of Rhum at Martinique. This caused much amusement
  23. Only know of… http://puertoricanart-crafts.com It’s in OSJ
