Sherman793 Posted September 6, 2019 #1401 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I know you are all ready to go home by now but I don't know what I am going to do for entertainment after all the excitement following along the last two weeks. Sure have appreciated you doing it! Awesome review. 😊 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2004corvette Posted September 6, 2019 #1402 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) at the Nassau Colonial Hilton 2 years ago, our ship GOS along with 4 other ships, very crowded and LOUD, service subpar and very slow, they no doubt were overbooked, no refund was available since we (2) checked-in and had 2 beers each according to the staff, never got our food so we went back to ship and enjoyed a nice lunch in the WJ will say prior visits were great positive = was able to get full refund from AX Edited September 6, 2019 by 2004corvette spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted September 6, 2019 #1403 Share Posted September 6, 2019 We did a day pass at the Park Royal in Cozumel a couple years ago as a walk up. It was about half the price of prebooking online. I wonder if Colonial Hilton would be the same if you just walked up? It looks nice. If it is the one I am thinking of, didn’t they film some scenes inside for one of the Bond movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about walk-up, but I booked a day pass through Resort for a Day for the Colonial Hilton last year after looking at all of the options -- including booking straight through the hotel. It was less expensive using Resort for a Day and what was included was the same. Andrew and family -- I've enjoyed reading your adventures the past two weeks. Are you sure you can't extend it another? What am I going to do at work next week?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the message they are repeating on social media. Makes sense. Also Royal doesn’t do tax donations. 52 minutes ago, h20skibum said: We did a day pass at the Park Royal in Cozumel a couple years ago as a walk up. It was about half the price of prebooking online.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 6, 2019 Author #1412 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) Cabin Interior Pictures It can sleep 8 but I would not want to be a part of that. Entrance Looking back at the hallway door Washroom to the left as you enter cabin. Master bedroom Closets, with a large safe. The door is to the master bath. TV and great storage. Master Bath Hallway to living room. 2nd bedroom off hallway to living room. It sleeps 4, has a TV and drawers for storage. Living room. Couch pulls out. Bar fridge below counter. Table and door to balcony. Edited September 6, 2019 by A&L_Ont 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 6, 2019 Author #1413 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Exterior photos The door to the left goes to the master bedroom. The sliding door to the right goes into the living room area. This little sitting area is on the port side of the ship and the wall to the right is the back wall of the master bedroom. This would be the view that you get when you leave the master living room and step out on the balcony. The view would be the same if you left from the master bedroom. This little bar seating area is the immediate view that looks down to the Aqua Theatre, and you can see the solid mounted viewing binoculars in the background. There is a table and six as well as two loungers with a lower table. The breeze can be quite nice out here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 6, 2019 Author #1414 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) Plans tonight Hibachi. 7:30. Fine Line at 10 I think. Might do a a time lapse of Fine Line from the balcony. Could be interesting. Hopefully some sunset pics too. Laundry just arrived as well. After today at the beach I can tell you that shower tonight is going to be very spectacular.

As I always say, you just need to be on board and you make it what it is from there. Total proof of that was our cruise last year in the balcony cabin, we had a blast. Thanks for following along, in the past and now. Edited September 6, 2019 by A&L_Ont 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glide_Path Posted September 6, 2019 #1417 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Andrew, what's the verdict? You prefer the Star Loft or the ATS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 6, 2019 Author #1418 Share Posted September 6, 2019 A lot of choppers in the air here as well. They are all headed north to Freeport and Great Abaco. The hotel also had lots of personnel in from search and rescue. There were also aid recovery groups. I must have seen at least 20 men and women as well as two sniffer recovery dogs. I would have to guess that they were working in shifts and being flown back when their shift is over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the same ATS on Allure booked for 11/29/2020 but really love the CLS. We have also stayed in the Panoramic Grande Suite, which was hands down the best suite ever.....but I worry about the lower ceilings and long hallway walk in the ATS, so very curious and patiently waiting your opinion 😏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding out when you arrived at the airport would not have been pleasant. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
