Not that I remember. Honestly… Most of the time I was in the manor until it got close to shutting down. Soooo… I’m probably not the best source. 🤣😂🤣

Glad to see the review. While im going with a group im basically in a room by myself and dint want to pay a supplement for larger room so i think im going to be the solo insider. Thanks!

Yea definitely not many solo cruiser events. The ship is more catered to couples and groups as always. They definitely can do better in that area.

How was the sound transfer from The Manor to your solo cabin ? You were right above. I'm just curious.
@TRAVELINGABALD5 ай бұрын
I didn’t notice it much. There were times that I did hear it but It wasn’t bad. I was usually in the Manor while it was the nightclub and by the time I made it back to my room it was closed. So no complaints here.

I'm surprised about the small casino. I'm not much of a gambler, but I love the environment of being in an active casino, especially on a cruise. Gambling is a great excuse to chat up a random stranger.

I absolutely agree with you, a 4 day sailing is super short. I did the Sunsets & Soirées and thought it was a little too short. The Dominican Daze itinerary was good, I really liked the itinerary that goes to Roatan. My next cruise is San Juan to Miami and I cannot wait, longer sailings are certainly better. The best is a longer sailing with a rockstar suite because you get Golden Champagne Hour every day at Richard’s rooftop plus they have two hot tubs and their own loungers. Great review.!
@TRAVELINGABALD11 ай бұрын
Aww Thanks! Yes I love longer sailings. When I get the money together to get a Rockstar Suite I’ll have to try it out. Right now a balcony is my life! 🤣😂🤣 Make sure you take many pics on your cruises! Nothing like going through the memories when you get back to regular life.

@@TRAVELINGABALD I do little scheduling of stuff outside of meals and shows😅. We did discover on the last cruise though that if you take the crew you should split a cabana at Bimini and do bottomless brunch that morning. So outside of the cabana, not much is planned.
