Creator's Key Takeaways

we have never before stayed in an interior facing balcony cabin I don't know that we would ever do it again because because I am a very light sleeper

overall we really enjoyed our experience on the ship the ship is amazing um we wish we could spend another week on it it's been great

the sweet Sund deck is fantastic uh it's probably easily twice the size of any other sweet Sund deck area we've ever been in

there are no North American or us plugs out here this one here will actually take um a us plug plugged in but it is only 120 volts

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Pack European or universal travel adapters for North American plugs
βœ“Use magnetic hooks for additional storage due to limited metal surfaces
βœ“Bring towel clips to help close curtains and block light
βœ“Use earplugs or an eye mask if sensitive to noise or light from Surfside area
