Hope you have beautiful sunshine days and moon lit nights! Linda Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snyniew Posted March 27, 2017 #33 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Just got off over 2 weeks ago. Make sure to go to the Sunset bar. Sarawuth (Sara) was excellent and I never wanted for anything. Sometimes he would just see me walk in and the next thing I knew my drink of choice was next to me. Or if I forgot to order my bottle of Evain w/ my drink he would remember. Excellent service! If you see him tell him Sonya says HI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike R 2018 Posted March 28, 2017 #36 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks so much for the info about the ship! We're booked in 1210 in a few months. How is the cabin? Any cabin/balcony pics would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol28 Posted March 28, 2017 #37 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Hope you are having a great time. Can you share what time the cabins were ready on the first day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnolan770 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #38 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Yesterday was a tough day. We had 16 foot seas making the ship very rocky. Many people, including staff, were complaining of seasickness. This is when having an aft cabin is not the best thing. It was really rolling in our room. We stayed in, ordered room service lunch, and slept most of the day. In the afternoon, as things started to calm, we made our way down to deck five and enjoyed some gelato. It's very good and reasonably priced at $4 for two scoops and $6 for four. We are the gelato sitting on the promenade deck with a lot of other sick passengers. After that we made it way too Cellar Masters. This has to be the most under utilized bar on the ship. I think most people are afraid if the Enomatic wine machines (not included in any drink package). However they also have an extensive wine list and microbrews. Many of these come in under the $13 premium drink package cap. And for those that are over, you only pay the difference. I had a great glass of 2012 Atalon Cabernet for only $1. For the beer folks, they had several Lagunitas brews including the Pils and a Little Sumpin Sumpin. There were a few Rogue beers also including an IPA. And then a lot of the regular beers you would expect, ie Anchor Steam, Stella, etc. They also had several hard ciders. For dinner, we went to Qsine. This was our first time there. Unfortunately my wife had not fully recovered from earlier in the day and was forced to leave early. I stayed and enjoyed some amazing food. It really is a lot of fun. I would recommend this place. Once they realized my wife was not returning, they prepared chocolate covered strawberries for me to take back to her. Top notch service. Today is mostly a sea day with a late arrival in San Juan. The seas are much more normal making a smooth ride. Sent from my SM-G935T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orator Posted March 28, 2017 #41 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Niko told me that she would be there for the TA, April 23rd and then go on vacation. I believe that Rossy, Captain's Club Hostess will be leaving on April 23rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleyVA Posted March 28, 2017 #42 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Think it is still Nico Thanks. I should have asked if anyone knew where Anca is. She was our concierge last April, and she was WONDERFUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G935T using Forums mobile app Every night we ate dinner in Blu,except the first night we took advantage of the 30% off and ate in The Tuscan Grill. We discovered the Atalon Cab. We had the drink package so we never paid for it. Our waiter would just put a bottle at the table after the second night. We loved it! Great Cab most defiantly.

J&B in GA Posted March 29, 2017 #48 Share Posted March 29, 2017 mnolan770, We are also from the Atlanta area and usually fly into FLL the day of the cruise, although not as early as you. ;) Looking forward to your review of the ship, as we've sailed only on "M" class ships in the past. We're currently booked on the Silhouette out of Amsterdam in August for a British Isles cruise which includes an overnight stay in Edinburgh so we can attend the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo the first evening. Really looking forward to this cruise. :D We also have an aft concierge class balcony cabin on deck 11. Those aft views are wonderful. Would love to see some photos of your cabin, as I'm not sure how large they are on an "S" class ship and the position of the bed. Near the bathroom, or near the balcony, and if the former is there much room between the foot of the bed and the wall ? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostchild Posted March 29, 2017 #49 Share Posted March 29, 2017 We are going to be on it on April 2! Does anyone know if there a pizza place onboard that you could grab a slice of pizza during the day? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasta is available as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
