    Dream vs. RCCL Allure

    I made a 4 night cruise reservation on Dream in December. Recently I got an email from RCCL about special pricing on new bookings thru tonight 5/4. So I now also have a 7 night cruise reserved on Allure for same date range, just more nights. I'm struggling to justify spending a lot more...

    I Hope It's OK To Ask This!

    I have enjoyed many non-disney and disney vacations. But I made a huge mistake in July 2012 by cruising NCL's Jewel to Alaska. It was awful. 1) The food was terrible in buffets and main dining rooms. Consequently we spent a lot in the extra $ restaurants. 2)The children's programming...

    Best off-site hotel for my situation

    We've been to US/IOA twice. The time saved and value received by staying on-site and using Express Passes allows us to complete our visit in 2 days. This frees up a lot of vacation time for us and we only have 1 night stay off at Royal Pacific. You get express pass privileges for day of...

    Holiday Inn Express in Cocoa Beach or other?

    We stayed at Cocoa Beach Holiday Inn before cruise on Magic. The hotel has nice beach area and we used the self-service laundry before boarding ship. Room is typical Holiday Inn. Nothing fancy.

    Can Someone Help Me Justify Dcl Over Other Lines

    :cool1: I have cruised both Disney Magic and on RCCL. For younger kids < 6 years old, Disney is the clear winner with the amazing kids program. Cataway Key is the best private island. We love Disney (WDW, WDL, DVC, DCL), but we still travel non-Disney. I can argue both sides Disney is better...

    Stay at disney's Vero Beach resort before cruise?

    We stayed a week at Vero a few years back. Resort is lovely and generally quiet. The only problem we had was- - too many kids and we could not get our kids into any of the kids programs. We expected lots of families, but Disney limits the number of kids they take into the kids programs. I...
