    Just back from RCI...thoughts

    We were on this same cruise as the OP. 4 time DCL , 1st RCL. We missed the DCL entertainment but loved the food on RCL and our server and stateroom host on RCL were the BEST we have ever had!! Loved the solarium pool - so much better than the adult pool on the Dream. My teens missed the...

    Charged $50 for wristband?

    Definitely go ahead and put it in dispute! I had a $250 charge on my statement for the wavephone and have it under dispute right now. I called DCL twice and had to wait for them to research (took over 2 weeks). Then they called back and said "missing or damaged phone". That's pretty...

    Unknown shipboard charges 2 months later...

    We did have problems with our wave phone and they gave us a loaner while they worked on ours for 2 days. But we didn't lose one - they delivered ours back to the room and we returned the loaner. Guess it could have been a mix-up with that?!?

    Unknown shipboard charges 2 months later...

    We cruised on the Dream June 7th. This week I received a $250 shipboard charge from DCL on my Disney visa. The full amount we owed at disembarking was already billed on my July statement. I called DCL and they cannot give me any info or specifics about the charge. They said they have to...

    Dream 5 night questions

    They did not make any real announcements, but after the fireworks on pirate night they opened up cabanas for a late night buffet. Huge roasted turkey legs, taco bar, and lots of desserts to name a few. No lobster (as in main course like they do on 7 niters)

    Did you see any sea critters on the way to/from the Bahamas?

    If you watch off the side as you are leaving port - maybe the 1st 1/2 hour or so, you will see dolphins, TONS of Stingrays and Jellyfish, we aslo saw a Horseshoe crab and a few Sea Turtles. Also, one night, full moon, we went down to deck 4. Where the ships lights shine in the ocean, we...

    cleaning snorkel equipment

    You can bring your own vests, but really no need to. They are free for use for all - even if you don't rent the snorkel equipment. Just one less thing to pack and drag onto the island.

    Comfort Suites Nassau- bill total please!

    That's what I read on their web site too. But last time they didn't charge me the housekeeping fee or the extra adult room fee. So I'm looking for someone who has recently gone to provide and actual breakdown of the charges. ANYONE??

    Comfort Suites Nassau- bill total please!

    We have booked Comfort Suites to use Atlantis water park and pools in the past. However, the "incidental" charges seem to be much higher than we paid in 2008. Can a recent cruiser provide a breakdown of the bill - including the energy fee, housekeeping, etc? From my calculation, it appears...

    Shuttle from CI &S

    Depends on the day you need the shuttle. I just spoke to the staff at CI&Suites last week and she said on Weekdays the first shuttle departs at 10:30 am and Weekends the fist shuttle is at 10:00am. They do not take advanced reservations, like the previous poster said. You shuttle time will...

    6/7/11 - It's a double dip DREAM!

    Hi All- Just checking back in now that school and sports are winding down. We've stopped in Tifton - not quite to Valdosta- and I would highly recommend the new Comfort Inn and Suites. Brand new hotel with interior hallways, very nice staff and a decent free breakfast.

    We've taken the 10am shuttle on 3 occasions. We received boarding #2 on both times cards were distributed - Magic and Wonder. (the 1st time everyone just stood in a long queue after registration was complete). Don't have any experience with the Dream - will find out in 2 weeks! I agree...

    Husband Dropping us at Port

    I've searched recent posts and have read conflicting information with a spouse dropping the rest of the family at port. Some say my husband will need his passport or birth certificate and driver's license to get thru the gate before security, others say Driver's license only. Can recent...

    Recent Reviews of Radisson at Port?

    Looking for recent reviews of Radisson at Port - We have stayed there 3 times for past cruises, but on our last visit in 2008 the hotel was in desperate need of a facelift. Anyone know if the rooms/decor/beds have been updated recently?

    Leaving our 2 year old at home?? Opinions

    The only thing that concerns me about leaving my kids while cruising is the limited communication and ability to get home quickly. I know DCL has an 800# for emergency. I just worry about something happening on a sea day and not being able to get home for many hours or maybe days. We...
