Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm Louie I'm John welcome to John and Lou's Big Adventures

the retreat which is what we're talking about it is so easy

the retreat experience on the owner ship is going to be much more about the cabin

once you have the retreat experience you're not going back you will never go back

Creator's Tips & Advice

Stay at a hotel close to the port for an easier embarkation.
Ask for a lounge chair if your suite only has regular chairs.
Request pillow changes if you have allergies.
Be aware that ordering room service for a group brings multiple portions.
Consider staying in the Retreat area for a nominal fee if your flight is later.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Noise from other cabinsOn Edge class ships, noise has not been an issue; older ships may have more noise.
Choosing a suite locationAvoid Sunset Sky Suites at the back due to lack of shade and long walks to the front.
