Thank you for your replies. I'm going to check into your suggestions.

We have always just walked to the front desk of the hotel and bought the day passes there. It cost $65 pp and includes $40 or $45  food/drink coupons. Not a bad deal. I would book directly with the hotel since its cheaper.

Includes towels, use of the pool, day beds, chairs,etc. The beach is very nice also. 

Have been there atleast 5 times and are going again in May.

Hope this helps 🙂

THANK YOU for the updated price inf. We were there 2 yrs ago and the price at that time was $65. I also just called the Hotel and was given the same rate as you $79 with a $40 food/beverage credit. That is a big price increase, Whoa!

We have been to British Colonial Hilton many times. It is never crowded. We walk to the hotel as soon as we get into port.

It is about 2-3 blocks from the port.  It prob depends how many cruise ships are in port that day as to whether or not they

are crowded. But in my experience, we've never had a problem getting the lounge chairs or day beds with canopies that are

by the pool.

Hope this helps.

We would like to parasail when we are in Key West in May.

There are several diff companies who offer this. I am looking for recommendations.

Also, how far away from the cruise pier are the businesses who offer parasaiing? Within walking distance?

Thank you so much. I appreciate your help.

Thank you for your review. I'm thinking about booking this excursion, due to your review.

Can I ask you how long the excursion was?  Did you have to pay in full in advance or just pay a deposit?

How long was your beach time?

Thank you,

Bump

The spa balconies on deck 11 on the Dream class are covered.  We're booked in one on the Breeze on our upcoming cruise.  We picked that deck because of the covered balconies.

We always book the Spa Cabins on Deck 12 not Deck 11.

Deck 12 balconies are not covered.

We almost always book the Spa balcony cabins. And have been in the Spa cabin many times on the Magic.

The balconies ARE NOT covered. You will get full sun on your balcony. Only problem with the Spa balconies

is the are not completely private. Ppl on the deck above can look down on your balcony. Its kind of annoying.

But never stops me from booking the Spa cabins.

Hope this helps.

Has anyone hired a private guide in Freeport for the day?

I have done this at other ports and would love to do the same in Freeport.

If you have, can you suggest anyone to me?

Thank you,

Doesn't the credit have to be applied to a new cruise booking also, not one currently booked?

No. My 25th cruise is in May and that is the cruise I am receiving my OBC, 'My PVP already submitted the paperwork

for me. You can take the credit on your 25th cruise or any cruise thereafter.

Congratulations!

The cruise I am taking in May is also my 25th cruise. Im so excited to receive the Diamond  S&S card.

My PVP already submitted the paperwork for my OBC for this cruise.  I have not received a letter in 

the mail though? Will  I also receive a letter?

Thank you,

Carla

How would I find out who the musical entertainer will be for our May 4th cruise?

We are trying to find out if Milo & Nino will be on the Freedom.

Thank you

In the past we have used Pat & Dianes in Freeport , but have learned they are no longer in business.

We are looking for another business who do snorkeling  in Freeport.

Also, does anyone know if Taino beach offers snorkeling boat excursions while at the beach?

Thank you,

Carla
