Had an amazing two weeks, feeling a bit tired and depressed. Already looking at prices to go back.
Just wanted to say thanks to lots of people on here, I got so much advice and info from so many people on here that helped me immensely and saved me lots of money and more importantly time.
Here are a few highs/lows:
Highs:
Weather - was very good, had a couple of dodgy days, but much better than forecast/expected, got a pretty decent tan!
Discovery Cove - just great, weather was perfect on the day, 2nd time we have done the dolphin swim, and it was better than the first time. The trainer was amazing, and we were the last ones to leave the lagoon.
Cheesecake factory - Liked it so much we went twice. Caramel cheesecake is awesome.
Bahama Breeze - Really liked this too, had the Jamaican jerk chicken, very generous portions.
Longhorn Steakhouse - Best steak I have ever had, honestly. Our server Nick was brill too.
Dine with Shamu - Food is not great, lets be honest, but the whole experience was very good. It's not everyday you dine with killer whales.
Shamu nighttime celebration - Just such a great show, whales, lights fireworks, even the pre-show show is fun.
Low:
Doubletree Seaworld Hotel - The staff are so rude. Especially the staff in Starbucks (with the exception of one girl). I started the holiday tipping them a couple of dollars for a $2.98 drink, but their attitudes were so disgusting by the 2nd week I was taking the 2 cents change back. They would take your money off you and give your drink/change without saying a word. I heard them huffing at customers so many times. I was so wound up one day by one of them that I had to leave before I dragged him over the counter, I let it go purely because I was on holiday. I am going to complain to Hilton. It is a shame as the hotel is otherwise decent and in a great location, but I would never stay there again just because of the staff.
No other low that I can think of, but I just want to add that Alamo were not aware of the code you need to hire a car now, and again I did not need the paper counterpart.
