ship-disturber Posted January 19, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Just off the Star, we had an amazing time with an amazing crew, one of the best I have ever sailed with. While the Star is showing why she is going into dry dock, it was clean, the shows were good, the staff went out of their way to please you, The itinerary exceeded my expectations. We did private excursions in every port and they were amazing. I will be writing a full review. Oh yes I realize food is a subjective thing but we had absolutely no complaints.

cali4niacruisin Posted January 19, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Was there any mention of what would be happening in dry dock? We are on 2 weeks after dry dock and I am curious what to expect. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted January 19, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I was watching the Star webcam last week and surprised to see you were in the locks at the time. I don't normally track where the Star is but I've been pretty lucky so catch most of the transits the Star has been doing recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Jeep Posted January 19, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Can you tell us how many 'laundry bag' days they offered on this trip. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ship-disturber Posted January 19, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted January 19, 2015 There were two laundry bag days, we did not take advantage of it for as Platinum members we got one laundry free. The canal was wonderful and they opened up the deck where the crew have the hot tubs that you see on the web cam, they provided water and fresh fruit during the crossing as well as providing a commentary. As far as the dry dock, we were told by the Hotel Director Hugo that it would be extensive, All staterooms will receive new mattresses and carpets, some of the restaurants will be reconfigured, a great deal of recarpeting, and a makeover of the atrium. The Blue Lagoon will become a New O'Sheehans bar and grill, and the theatre is getting a much needed makeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeCruisers? Posted January 19, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Before your review comes out are there any other tips we can be alerted to? Looks like we have a full house coming up from LA to Miami on Feb 2nd. Edited January 19, 2015 by WeBeCruisers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be so happy to see those plastic fountains under the stairs gone when we sail in May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
