Rare Eli_6 Posted August 7, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) We flew in last night and stayed at the Country Inn and Suites in Port Canaveral. The hotel is nothing fancy, but the bed was comfy, the room was cool and they offered a shuttle from the hotel to the port for $6. Our shuttle arrived to pick us up promptly at 10. I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a place to stay before your cruise out. Check in and security was a breeze at the port. We were sitting in the holding area waiting to board by 10:30. Oop...Looks like we are getting ready to board now! I will post photos as soon as I get on board and have internet. The internet in the holding area isn't great. Edited August 7, 2021 by Eli_6 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kittymommax4 Posted August 7, 2021 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) I’d love to hear about the new masking policy and where you can be maskless inside the ship. Do you have to wear it at the Alchemy bar, inside the comedy club, piano bar, etc., or only while waiting in lines? Have a great cruise!

Correct an Excel suite with priority. Their scheduled boarding time was later. They called and were told they could board in the earliest group regardless.

The only time place someone is guarding the door telling you to put a mask on is at the Buffett/Lido. Outside, many people are taking their masks off. It is 🔥🔥 hot🔥🔥! Inside, most are wearing masks but there is no one telling you to or reprimanding you if you don't. It just isn't being treated as a big deal. Everyone seems to be acting responsibly but the staff isn't saying anything if you don't. Everyone seems to be enjoying themselves. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eli_6 Posted August 7, 2021 Author #12 Share Posted August 7, 2021 The patio area at the back of the ship on deck ?6?. Serenity Deck is amazing and no one is there right now. Like having your own yacht. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasonsterling Posted August 7, 2021 #23 Share Posted August 7, 2021 It looks really nice! The Excel suites are quite something, especially the balcony areas with the private hot tubs! No need for the rest of the ship at all-lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only down side was we had to wait a bit because there were four of us on the shuttle and the other people's flight arrived later than ours, but it wasn't a big deal.
