Creator's Key Takeaways

We were very pleased with where they sat us. Yes. As far as the view. Yes.

I thought it was good. Yes. I did want to bring up and they were very nice in there, but for some reason we get the crappiest tables sometimes

Absolutely love love love. I love it. It's a beautiful beach with many activities.

Overall, I say it's in my top 10 cruises because I had a really good time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do your online check-in before the cruise to make port check-in smoother.
If you're not a heavy drinker, buy a bucket of beer instead of a drink package to save money.
Get transfers from the dock to the airport, especially out of Galveston, to avoid ride-share issues.

Not knowing about the white night partyResearch ship activities in advance to participate in events like the white night party.
Choosing an excursion in Key WestIf you don't want to walk much, the conch train tour is an inexpensive way to sightsee, but consider walking Deval Street for a more laid-back experience.
