luckyprincess Posted November 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Hi! Ok so I plan on doing a good comprehensive picture review of my 5 day 4 night on Indy in January. If you want something specific, let me know here. Whether it be pics of the compass', bar menus, specialty menus, spa menus...anything. Do you have specific questions you'd like me to ask? Want a pic of a specific area? I would like to hit a cabin crawl so I can get pics of different categories. let me know here :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonj Posted November 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Menus of everything and compasses would be wonderful. Would be interesting to know which menus they go with on a shorter cruise. Photos of the room and just general photos of the ship would also be helpful. Thank you for asking and enjoy your cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfcathorse Posted November 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted November 21, 2016 We're going to be in a Grand Suite. Is there a dedicated sunbathing area reserved for Suite Guests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefighterhoop Posted November 21, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2016 We're going to be in a Grand Suite. Is there a dedicated sunbathing area reserved for Suite Guests? Yes there is. It is on the stairs going from Deck 11 to 12 by the main pool area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patca Posted November 21, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Could tell me what kind of bedding they have? I cannot sleep on very hard beds with hard pillows. Do they have mattress toppers available? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyprincess Posted November 22, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Could tell me what kind of bedding they have? I cannot sleep on very hard beds with hard pillows. Do they have mattress toppers available? Thanks. We are super concerned about this! My mattress at home is a memory foam mattress with a 4" aloe vera gel pad on top. The reviews of my mattress online call it hard as a rock, too firm, a slab of concrete and more. We love it. I'm still bringing an egg crate type of topper for us just in case. I'll be honest and thorough in my review about the mattress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyprincess Posted December 13, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Totally forgot to mention we are doing the dolphin and manatee excursion in Cozumel and possibly the everglades airboat tour in Ft. Lauderdale and will include them in my review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liberiben Posted December 13, 2016 #17 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Our balcony cabin had ample padding on top of the bed! I think it was 2 layers of foam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capecruzer Posted December 13, 2016 #18 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I'd like to know what excursions/beaches you are doing and if you liked them. We think we'd like to do Blue Kay in Costa Maya and we're booked for the 4x4 jeepie thing (LOL) in Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted December 14, 2016 #19 Share Posted December 14, 2016 You may just want to relax and focus on the vacation part. And not so much on writing a review, taking a bunch of pictures, and researching questions for others. I know you are trying to be helpful. However the ship has been around for 8 years and there are already a ton of photos and hundreds of member reviews already out there. A 4 day cruise is pretty short and it will be over pretty quick. It would be a waste to stress yourself out trying to document everything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted December 14, 2016 #20 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Yes there is. It is on the stairs going from Deck 11 to 12 by the main pool area. When we did Liberty earlier this year it was on deck above the bar on 12 ( sister ship), but on Navigator is was between 11 and 12 ( much better area) , but I know even sister ships are not always the same on RCCL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M&JfromSDL Posted December 15, 2016 #21 Share Posted December 15, 2016 We loved Vintages on our Indy cruise a few years back. The bartender (Jayesh) was an awesome guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 5 day cruise and honestly there are not many good current reviews out there on her. I and many others have expressed requests for reviews. Reviews and pics of a ship 8 years ago are hardly helpful now :) Compasses and menus and new drinks and entertainment call for new pictures, reviews and of course opinions! Relying on a review from 6 years to go to find out about mattresses is not useful. I'm sure you were looking out for me and thank you lol! I guess for some taking pictures and doing reviews may be stressful but I'm sure not one of those people :p I hope you relax and enjoy your next cruise in the way you enjoy!

And dammit for the slow internet!!! My techie man is going to be so frustrated lol! The foam layer was already there.. It's firm but not too bad I slept real well. Our cruising friends say there's is too firm..she asked for an eggcrate topper but was told they don't have them. Chops was great .. Much better than Giovanni's and I never thought I would say that.. So far fantastic cruise.. This is our fifth time on independence and she never fails too shine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
