Creator's Key Takeaways

I was sailing solo on this one going on seren the Seas for a five night Western cing cruise out of Tampa Florida

the second lesson from sailing on serenade of the Seas is not all the cabins got upgrades from the world Cruise

the third lesson from my seren the Seas cruise is that the smoke factor from the casino can be problematic at times

something though I absolutely love about serenade the Seas is the salarium and that leads me to my fourth lesson

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Pre-book parking at Tampa port to avoid availability issues
βœ“Bring a natural light alarm clock for inside cabins
βœ“Spend time in the solarium on Radiance-class ships
βœ“Visit the helipad at the front of the ship for great views
βœ“Use the outdoor seating in the Wind Jammer for uncrowded dining with views
