  1. Also consider purchasing 100 Carnival Shares for even more (free) OBC as a shareholder benefit per stateroom, for one’s currently booked and all future cruises. Share price is around the $10 price will involve a spend of $1000, so it’s possible to get a ROI of $1000 with four off cruises. Anyway, one’s 7 nights will attract $100 OBC (10% ROI) Benefits…
  2. Don’t forget to book one’s next Cunard Voyage onboard to receive additional (free) OBC in addition to the Cunard fare OBC Also consider purchasing 100 Carnival Shares for even more (free) OBC as a shareholder benefit per stateroom, for one’s currently booked and all future cruises.
  3. Consider the thick carpets on Cunard when pushing a weighted wheelchair. Smoking is allowed outside on decks 10 and 3, starboard side. There is no shelter from the elements. Think smoking used to be allowed in the Pavilion Pool starboard side, but not 100% positive that this is still the case. Cigarettes purchased on board in the Duty Free store were allowed to be immediately taken away.
  4. Taking 6050 with mobility (walking) concerns, will give one a long walk to Britannia Restaurant, aft sun deck and Lido Cafe. Suggest an aft stateroom on deck 4 to 7 to take the lift to all three. There will be no problem with secondary smoke inhalation.
  5. Taxi there and back. As rates may have increased since COVID, work on US$60 e/w (per cab) plus tip. Also, to get the most out of one’s visit, suggest a guide. The gardens will give current guide rates.
  6. If it’s just DW and I, then The Pillars is our go to every time.
  7. This ask is definitely in the kind @cruisemom42 territory… Be patient
  8. If no space the consider https://www.marigotbeachclub.com/all-inclusive-day-pass/

  10. Hopefully, some day in the future, one will think “I know I will not spend if I don’t have to, but I now wish to, and experience all that Cunard offers”.
  11. Better is Cap Maison….. Worth the few extra dollars.
  12. Taxi Fare work on $25/30 e/w plus tip Beach conditions can change from one day to another depending on weather conditions. But always a steep drop off. Beds? Say $20/30 per 2 beds and 1 shade. Very, very busy beach…. Locals, holiday makers, condos, cruisers (SHT) etc. There are better places for genteel, discerning cruisers. There is public transport if looking to save money.
  13. One has made this observation for years, but many think they know better.
  14. Also includes private taxi to/from terminal
  15. May one suggest to make a Hilton package booking, then continue searching. This way you have a solid base, then continue the search, knowing one can, as a member, cancel the day before without penalty.
  16. Just remembered - years back - came up in a discussion…..Mayfair Guest House…..
  17. Then, as a last resort, there is “Park on my Drive” as an option.
  18. Hilton Doubletree Southampton also offer cruise packages, but the hotel is sad and past it’s best.
  19. Parking4Cruises Triangle Parking Overnight Hotel with private parking. Hilton Ageas offer a package with private taxi transfers to/from Terminal
  20. About 4 years ago a on budget cruiser mentioned they stayed at Hotel Smart Cruise (small and very reasonably priced hotel) and only walked about 5 minutes to the meet point. Maybe this will be of interest to @VitaminSea53
  21. American friends have always praised The Riverside as close to shops, bars and restaurants with a short walk to a liquor store. The hotel is simple clean and has “micro rooms” being slightly smaller for those on a budget. As they say in the States “Best bang for a Buck”. Take a look…
  22. Believe it is only possible if the person is booked in BC Best to make a private request to the MD.
  23. This is a must take……. https://maryrose.org Prepare to be wowed. Others will add their ideas. Central hotels.. Pig in the Wall or an historic pub/hotel The White Star.
  24. Coco on Orient or Rainbow on Grand Case Excellent food, drinks, beds and ambience
  25. As an aside…. We have given up on Southampton Hotels as they no longer give a genteel relaxed stay, having migrated to Lime Wood Hotel for our two night pre-cruise stays. So, if you’re wanting something different, like a semi-remote country house boutique hotel, then consider LW. It will not disappoint. Their afternoon tea is a must after check in.
