Creator's Key Takeaways

I cruise a lot and I always sail with travel insurance. You should too.

The pier is open. I will say this, if you have been to Great Strup K in the past and it was sort of before they started this renovation, it is almost completely unrecognizable and I mean that in the best way possible.

We had a what's called a club balcony, which is a little better than your normal balcony, a little bigger. uh lots of storage space and uh the bathroom was the big thing because uh it was a lot bigger than the usual bathroom and it actually had a tub so I was we were quite shocked by that.

The specialty dining was really nice. The uh just it was just relaxing, you know, and on um Great Strup K, you know, we just picked out a chair by the pool and read our books and we were right by the bar and uh it wasn't crowded getting drinks and stuff uh all the time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Always get travel insurance when cruising.
