beachnative Posted May 21, 2018 #27 Share Posted May 21, 2018 We were also on that sailing (as well as the previous one) and had a wonderful experience....never encountered any rude crew members,,,,unfortunately, we observed plenty of rude guests. The ship was beautiful, the food in Coastal Kitchen excellent, and the shows enjoyable. I am looking forward to reading the rest of your review...I like your style of writing.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmf11699 Posted May 21, 2018 #31 Share Posted May 21, 2018 -We stayed in a balcony oceanview stateroom, Deck 10-room 10562, on the forward side in the hallway right next to the elevator foyers. We were almost directly below you in 7560. No wonder we kept running into each other, LOL. And since you didn't mention Mai Kai restaurant in Ft. Lauderdale I'll do it. Great place for dinner and a Polynesian show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rellyrooly Posted May 21, 2018 #33 Share Posted May 21, 2018 LUGGAGE DELIVERY: No real complaints with our cabin. Awesome location right outside the elevator foyers (theres no noise from elevators as The mirror over the desk is large but could be lit a bit brighter but it was fine for what we needed, we brought a portable light up foldable makeup mirror. The lighting is great in the bathroom, the bathroom also has great shelving, nice sized shower with a little bar towards the floor to put your leg on. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Thank you so much for your review so far! I am sailing in less than 2 weeks! I am concerned about the mirror for makeup too. It looks like it is hung very high and like you said, has too low of a light. I think I am going to take your tip and get a travel makeup mirror. Is there one that you like? Did you get it on Amazon?

It was not an official day unless we saw Michelle and Bob!! And OMG YES!! Mai-Kai is FABULOUS, highly recommend the dinner and show menu, includes price of show in pre fixe! Also they organize their gigantic drink menu by categories of drink strength, very helpful! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mirror isn't hung too high, its quite big and right over the desk but it isn't too brightly lit. Bathroom is very well lit though just nowhere to sit if you prefer that. This is the makeup mirror we purchased, got it at TJ Maxx! Note my ultimate abyss tshirt! Hehe Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoriousxx3 Posted May 21, 2018 Author #40 Share Posted May 21, 2018 What did you think of Kieron singing at the pub ? I adored Kieron. Hes gorgeously handsome, so very talented, and a really nice guy!! He hung out for a bit with my friends and I after his set, he played a wide variety of songs and we always enjoyed listening to him. Definitely a must see! He always played late from around 9:30/10:30-1am ! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as what we just had on the Allure. Did you happen to get any menus from Solarium Bistro or Coastal Kitchen? We may look at those for a couple of nights that we don’t like the MDR offerings. CK may depend on if we can get our friends in, since they are not in a suite, but we are. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solarium we didnt because it had very very small offerings, not a lot of options I felt. But they do have a sit down menu as well. The food looked good though we just didnt choose to eat there. CK sadly we were not in a suite but have heard only great things about the food! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapad Posted May 23, 2018 #45 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Thank you so much for such a great and detail review....subscribing along, great work! Do you recall when is lobster night?

lcgvol Posted May 25, 2018 #48 Share Posted May 25, 2018 We were on this cruise with you and had similar experiences with the luggage and safety briefing. We saw our luggage sitting lined up out in the hallway way down from our cabin. We just assumed they hadn't put them in front of our cabins yet so grabbed them as we saw them and drug them down. Maybe they weren't planning on doing it themselves?? For the safety drill, we were told to go to the Aqua theater but then it started raining and thundering so we were sent inside to the Photo place(Focus something). It was very crowded in there and everyone just kind of stood around or sat in the floor. We could not hear all of the announcements but they told us to watch the monitors. Problem was there was nothing on them to watch. We could barely hear the handwashing song. We kept waiting for the briefing to start, then we heard him say "this concludes the safety briefing and you may go." Lol, glad we didn't need any of that info.

2Long2NxtCrz Posted May 28, 2018 #49 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Thank you for the great, detailed review! I especially appreciate the daily cruise compass photos and the MDR menus. Really helps me plan for our cruise (we leave Saturday! OMG!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeandHer1968 Posted May 29, 2018 #50 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Thanx for the great review. We sail on November 25th so the compasses and menus help a lot with the planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
