  1. Thanks for the positive review as we are in this suite on a September 2017 cruise. From a you tube video online, it looks more spacious than the other suites The agent left a message that she had one premium suite and vista suites left. When I called back the premium suite on the Baja deck was gone already. She said she could give a A729, a larger suite at 664 square feet. I asked what the difference was between premium and vista suites and she said its just location on the ship. We looking forward to staying in A729 as it looks awesome.

  2. Can any fellow cruisers tell me what is the best option to get from the Haneda Airport to our hotel in Yokohama. Our flight arrives about 6:30 p.m. Japan time. Our hotel is located in Yokohama and the closest station is JR Kannai Station. If you can provide feedback, it would appreciated. Thank you.

  3. I just got off a 7 day cruise to Alaska on May 21, 2016. The Star Princess is older but still in relatively good shape. The Skywalkers night club is suspended at the back of the ship which gives you a great bird's eye view. This cruise included Sitka, Juneau, Glacier Bay (which was spectacular) and Ketchikan. We were lucky to hear the thunderous sound when the ice fell from the Margerie Glacier which was awesome. We saw many whales (spouting) and porpoises from the ship. When the waters are calm, that's when you'll see them. The inside passage was breathtaking. This was an excellent Alaska itinerary out of Vancouver, BC. Hope this helps.

  4. We went to Orient Beach January 22, 2015. The beach conditions were good and there was seaweed in the ocean but not too bothersome but your feet would get tangled in it. We found some spots where you could stand in he water where there was no seaweed. As the waves crash in, the seaweed would move. The beach and ocean were still great and we enjoyed our time there.

  5. I am wondering if anyone has any new updates for Orient Beach regarding the beach/seaweed cleanup. We will be at port in St. Maarten in mid-January 2015 and would love to sign up for an excursion but are not sure at this point whether it would be worth it or not. The area where we were located last year on the beach was near Waikiki. Any new information on the condition of the beach will be helpful. Thank you.

  6. We are planning our next cruise to the Caribbean. Which is a better itinerary, we love beaches, sightseeing and shopping. We did a 7 day Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Royal Princess in Feb. 2015 visiting St. Maarten and St. Thomas.

     

    We are considering:

    10 Day Princess Eastern Voyager: Antigua, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Kitts, St. Thomas.

     

    10 Day Southern Caribbean Medley: St. Thomas, Dominica, Grenada, Bonaire, Aruba

     

    Those who have taken these cruises, can you tell which is better, thank you.

  7. Thanks Paul, I am not sure where it originates from, assumed Mexico but could be from somewhere else. I am just looking for tequila in a unique bottle and the bull shaped bottle looks awesome. It doesn't have to be particularly this brand but thought I'd ask if anyone had seen a similar bottle of tequila in Mexico. When we were in Cabo 4 years ago, we found a tequila in bottle shaped like El Arco. I will be Mexico myself Nov so will have a look around.
