Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm Joe from Embrace Today, and this Marty GR tour reveals every epic spot from the electrifying ultimate playground to the vibrant Laap Piaza.

I absolutely love shebang and the food there is topnotch.

I will never get a balcony room above the bean bag toss again.

The serenity area is just a place where you can go and relax. It's for adults only.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring reef safe sunscreen on your cruise.
Make a reservation for Bonsai Tanyaki when you first get on the ship because it fills up.
Don't get a balcony room above the bean bag toss area to avoid noise.
Come to the beverage station on deck eight to beat the crowds at breakfast.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Finding a sun loungerCome up to the upper Leo deck on deck 17; there will be open sun loungers with ocean views.
Getting a spot in the hot tub in SerenityIt's not easy to get a spot, but it's desirable; try to get there early.
