Just off Freedom of the Seas Cabin 6378

[lcp9984]

Good morning,

 

Just off FOS and had a great time. Our first time sailing this ship and would sail again. Cabin 6378 is a delight. This room had a balcony and a LARGE fold out couch that could easily sleep two smaller individuals if needed. Great location on on the ship, very quiet and no noise from the Promenade below. Staff at the RBar on deck 5 wonderful. No problem getting pool chairs on beach days. In the Casino the Wheel of Fortune slot machines were pretty generous !! Got to Pier 29 around 11:00 and no problem getting on. Rooms were open around 1:00. Food............some good days and some not so good in the main dining room. The good days outnumbered the bad though. In Grand Cayman we did the Stingray City/Sandbar excursion that I booked through RC. I would recommend this tour. Met at pier and shuttled to boat. Boat ride was about 20 minutes out to the sandbar. We were at the sandbar about an hour. The boat sells soft drinks, beer and liquor if you desire. It was Marineland Tours. Went to Mr. Sanchos in Cozumel and had wonderful service from Hector. Two of our party went parasailing but most of us just sat on the beach and had Hector bring food and drinks all day. We did the all inclusive for around $55.00 I believe. Massages there were $30 for 20 minutes. If you want to do a beach massage wait until the next day when you get to Costa Maya at Mahahaul Beach. They are $20 for and hour. The Costa Maya port is new and really nice if you want to hang out there. Step outside the port area and grab a taxi for $2.00 PP to Mahahaul for a true Mexican feel. We went to the Krazy Lobster and hung out there. KEEP IN MIND all of these beach clubs YaYa, Tropicante etc. are all right side by side. It is hard to tell where one ends and one stops so any of them would work . We did receive good service and food from the Krazy Lobster though. Coast Maya was our favorite port. I will be happy to address any questions if you have any. Happy Sailing !!!!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am a bit worried about rock hard mattresses, so I would be interested to know how yours was? Did you eat at any of the specialty restaurants?

Thanks

Cindy, we did not eat at any specialty restaurants. I heard several people mention that Sabor was really good. I too, was worried about the beds. Good news !! We had four cabins and all beds were "topped" with an egg crate foam and the beds were fine !!
