I was recently in 4015.  Did not hear anything from the lounge or the deck above.  However, did not realize we were across the hall from staff entrance/exit from interior stairwell.  It wasn't enough to wake me up while I was asleep but something to take note if you're a light sleeper.  Have a great cruise this fall! 

I have found sticking a cotton ball in my left ear (right-hand dominate) eases the motion sickness. I know it sounds peculiar but give it a try. From acupressure to meclizine, this method has worked the best for me. Most cruise lines will offer meclizine if experiencing rough seas. Have a great time on your cruise!

I was on the 2d sailing. The staff couldn't have been nicer and very accommodating. I ate in every venue, including The Patio for lunch and dinner. All of it was very good as well as the presentation. The biggest surprise was The Patio. Different menu and affect for dinner. New items on all the menus with the smallest changes to Prime/Aqua. You are in for a great treat :). As far as hooks, bring your magnets. They work just fine through the wallpaper. For a clothing line alternative, I had four large clip magnets. I clipped my suit up. Not ideal but worked pretty good. Have a great vacation!

Setting sail! Prime C is da' bomb! Staff is awesome! Miami skyline is an awesome backdrop to our dinner. Thank you, Azamara!

Cruise critic meet and mingle was good. Eric is great! So good to see so many 1st time Azamara cruisers on board. I hope you all enjoy Azamara--she's surely a treat!

Just made my husband look at the photo and he commented about the lack of usable space with this loveseat being curved. Only one person can sit, really, AND you lose the space behind it...

Actually I skewed the love seat in the corner. Don't feel it takes away anymore than it used to with the old rectangle one And still fits both of us -- at least BEFORE the cruise. Afterwards might be a bit tight :)

We've already met some wonderful folks on board! As soon as we boarded, at exactly 11:35 AM, we were "binged" in on Deck 5 and headed right around the corner to the Discoveries Lounge to book our specialty dining reservations. This was the only place where the wait was a bit long (meaning that there were 3 folks reserving and of course it takes each person 5 minutes or so to discuss, and book their package or reservations) We met a lovely couple right away who helped give us some insider tips, since they have sailed Azamara 15 times!

 

After booking we made our way to guest services to discuss our early disembarkation and the possibility of booking "nights in private places". We have to drop off a form to debark early and the concierge will contact us about the nights in private places possibilities. I'm thinking we may get a no, just because of Zika, even though, let's face it, ther won't be any pregnancies on this cruise for us. ;) I'll keep you posted about our success of both! We met a couple there we plan to take a tour in Cartegena with..and already, we are really enjoying the folks we've met on board and look forward to spending 10 days with them!

 

Our new experienced AZ friends saved us a spot at a table on the Windows outdoor cafe, where we joined them for an excellent lunch. After lunch, we took a few more photos of the ship, and then headed to our cabin. We took quite a few photos, but we won't be able to post those here till I return home, but you can see them on our Twitter feed! I'm about to post them right now!

 

More to come! (I've left my signature ON, so you can see our link to the Twitter account.

Great to be joining you! See you at the M&M at 6pm. We had a fabulous lunch on the Patio and met the CEO. Staff have been fabulous! Kudos to Azamara for a seamless embarkation process.

Thank you for posting this update. My TA was notified immediately. Thank goodness it's 11 months away and have plenty of time to reschedule our next adventure with Azamara! Can't wait to see how great the ship looks after the new renovations!
