Okay guys keep in mind that this is my first cruise and my very first trip report!! We ended going down a day early and staying at the Radisson. Arrived at the airport...got our car from Budget and we were on our way. We stayed in the 2 room King suite. Very nice room and staff!! We didnt have any complaints!
Boarding the ship was very easy. There is nothing like pulling into port and seeing that ship for the first time!! I was soooo excited! We had a Cat. 3 so boarding was very easy and relaxing!! No complaints there either!!
We really didnt do alot of excursions which probably worked out to our benifite because we ended up having 2 of our children become ill. Our 3 yo ended up having an ear infection and the 15 yo came down with Norwalk Virus and had to be quarrantined for 48 hrs. For that reason I am very glad that we had the Cat. 3!! We spent alot more time in our room because of that!
We did go on the Atlantis semi submarine in the Caymans. Very nice. The whole family really enjoyed it. We booked thru Disney but I would just book it through them to save some $$. With everyone being sick we just walked around Key West until it started to rain and then headed back to the ship. And we just did the same at Costa Maya. Castaway Cay was the highlight of the trip!! Wonderful weather!! My husband and son went bottom fishing and loved it!! Snorkeling was great too!
As far as the food goes we have absolutely no complaints! We thouhgt everything was wonderful! Our waiters Tibor and Uri were awesome!! We didnt do Palo...thought we would save that for the next time!!
I could not believe how friendly everyone was and how they would do almost anything to make sure you had a magical time. Even though we didnt get to stay in a midship Cat. 3...we loved our room and the concierge service!! They really go out of their way to make you feel extra special!!!
When our 3yo felt better he loved going to the club. No complaints there either!! Before we left I was alittle hesitant leaving him onboard while we got off the ship...which we did in Costa Maya...but everything was fine!!
We have rebooked for Feb. 08!! Wish we didnt have to wait so long but we definately want a Cat.3 again so we have to pay off this trip first!! I didnt get to meet all the DISers that I wanted to because of sick kids but those of you that I did meet...youre awesome and I hope we can cruise together again sometime!!
