Comet Cruiser Posted October 5, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Hello, Just wondering if we should book a port or starboard cabin on Explorer of the Seas while we are in Bermuda for 7 nights? Also, will the shops and casino be open for business while we are docked? Thanks! Gail Comet Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted October 5, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Side of the ship really doesn't matter...the ship doesn't dock to the same side each time. And, while in port, you'll be OFF the ship, most likely. We prefer to be away from the dock...more private that way, since folks ashore tend to look at you if you're on the balcony....the views are great no matter what you're facing. The shops and casino are generally closed while docked....don't know if they'll open on an "overnight" stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scchasgal Posted October 6, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 6, 2011 As of 2009 casinos are allowed to be open at 10 pm onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted October 6, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Either side is good; you won't know which side will be against the dock till you get there! Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 9, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Either side will be perfectly fine. Consider a cabin more mid ship. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrusinCyndi Posted October 11, 2011 #6 Share Posted October 11, 2011 We just got off the Carnival Pride a few days ago and the casino was CLOSED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librarylover Posted October 13, 2011 #7 Share Posted October 13, 2011 We were in Bermuda in June on the Veendam. I don't think the casino was open while we were in port. I think a cabin on either side will be fine, since you'll probably be docked at King's Wharf. Ours was a medium sized ship, so we were able to dock right in Hamilton. Our starboard side cabin looked out on to the street below, which we enjoyed. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
