So we are about to go to sleep! We will grab breakfast in the morning here and we will report back about that. Here is quick video about our evening and our stay here at the Four Seasons Miami. Keep in mind we live in a hotel concept in Chicago. We expect things a certain way and I have to say that this place (which is also a hotel plus resident concept) is very well managed and we were thrilled with the service.

Absolutely thrilled to be following along with you on this trip.

What a good deal at a fabulous Miami hotel, too. Looks like you had a very nice evening.

I just recently happened across a couple of your youtube videos while doing research on Sky Suites and was so excited to see this live blog yesterday.

We'll be boarding the Eclipse when you get off (in our very first suite on Celebrity) so we're anxious to hear what you have to say about the RS and everything that goes along with it.

Haven't been to Michael's Club since it was Perry Grant territory on the Constellation so would appreciate any info you could provide about that.

Have a wonderful cruise!

Following...enjoying.

Good Morning from Miami. We just had a wonderful breakfast outside with a couple of drinks.

 

 

The weather is sunny today and I think we will have a high right around 80. There is a very slight breeze in the air. Very comfortable.

 

It is 9:50am as I write this. I think we will hop in an Uber around 10:20/10:30 to head to the pier. We love being one of the first ones on the ship. After all we cannot use the drink package all day if we don’t start early!

 

I will let everyone know how the embarkation process goes. In the past we’ve arrived this early and never had any issues with check in. Fingers crossed it’s the same today.

You will love your Royal Suite. The extra space and real dining room table are wonderful. Not to mention the extra perks (that didn’t exist when DH treated me to RSs).

 

Have a fabulous cruise!

[sdnich]

Look forward to following you on your cruise have a great time!!

Well we are already on board. Check in was a breeze. At check in we were met by Solomon from the ship who escorted us on the ship. It was a little awkward cutting by all the people waiting to get on but it was a nice treat.

 

Right now we are sitting in Michael’s Club and I think we will go explore the ship shortly and see who we know on board.

Enjoying your review as always. Oh my gosh that sounds like perfect weather. I hope we're as lucky next week.

 

Have fun you two! :D

[poffles]

Following along. Hope you guys have a great cruise. Wishing I was there too, 14 days on the Caribbean sounds wonderful right about now. Flurries here tomorrow :(

[CHEZMARYLOU]

Following your adventures. You'll love the Royal Suite.

[chicagopaul]

Thank you to everyone who has followed along! I took a video tour of the room but YouTube is fighting me with the upload. Tried on WiFi and on cellular and no luck. But I did upload a quick one on my Instagram page. PaulKBlackburn

 

Our room is beautiful. We’ve met Alfred our butler who is very professional and stressed that “anything at all we need or want, no matter what” that he will take care of it. We will try and test that. Within reason of course.

 

Today was coats guard inspection. The first since they came over. So the staff was a bit frazzled. But they’re happy now that it has been complete. I hope they performed well!

 

Here are some room photos.

Paul and Edward,

 

Just watched your sail away on the webcam. Looks like you had a great one, Bon Voyage!

 

Following along as we will be taking this cruise for the third time next year. We will be in a Sky Suite (jealous of your RS 😉) and we have a question.

 

I am assuming you will be dining in Luminae, can you tell me if the Sommelier is Maggie? If it is, would you mind asking her how long she will be on board?

 

Thank you and enjoy your cruise.

[oliver1821]

Beautiful suite!!! Looking forward to your review! Enjoy!!!

[garyl62]

Looking forward to following along on another cruise with you two. I'll be interested in hearing about your RS experience. We are booked in a CS on Equinox and I'm watching the prices for a RS in case we want to move up.

[papuchon]

Following along. We have the Sunset Veranda 7th floor.

Suite looks awesome! So jealous! Though I wonder once you stay in a RS -can you ever stay in a "regular" cabin?

 

Thanks for posting the daily - very informative!

[burrma]

Awesome pictures and posts. Thanks. ENJOY

[chicagopaul]

Cheers everyone! It is almost midnight as I am sitting in bed typing this. We had a wonderful evening. We started with drinks at the Martini Bar. Followed by dinner in Luminae and then multiple drinks at World Class.

 

Edward is currently ordering room service for a late night snack. At least I talked him out of another drink. It was like watching Bambi learn how to walk!

 

I was hoping to post duke photos but the internet is not cooperating. Hopefully later tonight will work or first thing in the morning. Please stand by!!
