Do you need to make a reservation to use adventure ocean? I assume there is a maximum capacity for the number of kids per age group. I have twin potty trained 3 year olds. Do they still give you a phone to get in touch with you in case something happens? What can I expect of the program at this age? Are there any fees for using it? Just hoping to use it a few times during our trip so hubby and I can get a massage and maybe have one nice relaxing dinner. 🙂 Any tips are appreciated. 

I have so many questions.... but let's start here. My husband and I are emerald. We cruised together about 7 times but this is our first cruise with our kids, twins 3 year olds. I decided to splurge and get a suite so we had more room and privacy once the kids go to bed. Booked a grand suite on the anthem for the Christmas cruise. this is our first time cruising over a holiday as well which I know can be very crowded. 

So my questions-

I have been reading up on the perks of a sky class suite and the genie....

1-Do I wait for them to contact me before booking anything? I see reservations are already available for dinner, the spa, and whatnot so I normally try to book everything in advance to get the spots I want. Do I not need to worry about this now since I am in a suite? I want to book a dinner and a massage while the kids are in adventure ocean (which is only open certain hours each day) for my husband and me and I don't want to miss out on getting the times I want. 

2-Where can we score free drinks? Anywhere besides the suite lounge? any other free perks that I should know about being in a suite? 

3- Port Canaveral- is it really worth it to take the hour trip back and forth to Disney? My kids haven't been to Disney yet so I thought this would be a good opportunity to "give them a quick Disney experience" before we do a full Disney trip in a year or two. but i know the park will be crazy crowded since it's christmas week. We will be in port from 7am to 7pm. 

4- are small kids allowed in CK and the suite lounge?

I will head over to the family forum for my other kid related questions but i think that's it for now. Thanks so much.

Thanks for this review. it is extremely helpful. We are thinking about booking this cruise for 2019 and will be in Nassau on Christmas day. Did you notice a lot of things being closed or not available because of the holiday?
