The first cruise I took we were supposed to go to the private island in the Bahamas but due to damage we went to Nassau. We also missed Costa Maya.

We always book an inside cabin. We like to spend our money on other things and don't spend much time in it anyway. I turn on the TV to the outside cameras for my window. I put a clothesline up in the bathroom to hang our suits on.
I agree.

I would suggest going to Triana's Tapas for dinner and a show

We did this last October. The food was good and the guitar music and dancing was excellent.

Dunns is beautiful and you can take a cab and climb the falls for under $20

My grandma got the "freebie cruise" we are going Oct 15
Found a reasonable flight from Ohio and will be coming in 2 days early.
Never been on a small ship, should be fun and different.

I have heard the spa offers occasional deals. Is there a certain day that they normal run specials?
I will be on the Empress of the Seas, if it varies by ship.

I always want a table for two, last several cruises I have just requested that and near a window and got both. Now I was told for my upcoming Empress cruise that their are few tables for two so it may not be an option but they will note my request.

Thanks for the ideas! Since we are so green when it comes to touring, we might hang on to your tips or the next time (and I'm sure there will be a next time!)....but I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for the taxis you speak of...scope them out!
Have a wonderful trip! St Maarten's one if my fav stops.

How do you attach luggage tags printed at home to your luggage?
I just use packing tape

On a cruise several years ago my parents room had a sink that was leaking badly. They made multiple attempts to fix and finally had them pack up and move. It didn't ruin their cruise but took away from it. They understood that stuff happens but at the same time missed out on things when they had to meet maintenance, make calls and pack and move four people. They too were given $500 to be used on a future cruised, booked within the next year.

It's been a little while since I was on the Oasis but I really enjoyed it. Ship is beautiful and huge, might as will be a city on water. And the shows are amazing I think the only thing I could've had a complaint about was that there weren't any open decks besides the top decks. And that's not even really a complaint it's just something I kind of missed from the other ships.
I too say ignore the negative reviews and go enjoy yourselves.

If you decide to try the patch' date=' make sure you try it when you're safely at home first. That medication makes me hallucinate, and I'm really glad I found that out in my safe house .[/quote']
My pharmacist made a point to tell me not to try while feeling fine at home that you are more prone to the side effects when you do not require the medication. Not sure if that is accurate or not. I have always waited until right before we leave port and fond the patch to be great.

I can not speech for other independent cab companies but we have used Antony's company a few times with great service. We discovered him by mistake on our first trek outside the port he stopped and talked to us and we a group of 5 decided to give it a try it cost us $20 a head at the time and was for the day. We may have just gotten very lucky but he offered us a great tour of the island.

I also highly recommend a speed boat tour by Soualiga Destinations Boat Tours. We did this last year and it was amazing. You have a huge lunch on grand case.

We never pay for a cruise excursion anymore. Just hire a taxi for the day and request to be back 1-2 hours in advance just to be safe.
Are you with several people you should be able to get a cab for about $25 a head for the day.
If you walk outside the port and look for Antony he does $20-$25 a head. He charges a little less as he us an independent company. We've used Antony and his guys a few times and always had a good day.

Watch those patches that go behind your ear. They gave me double vision and when I took them off I was violently ill.
The patches do have a side effect of blurred vision. I experienced this when my patch fell off and I replaced it. At least for me it was caused by basically doubling up the dose. I still swear by these, for me it is what makes me able to enjoy my cruise. I do suggest reading the side effect info before using.

Better safe than sorry and at least they have alternative stops. Labadee is lovely when you go further away from the water activities. And they can drink a labadoozy or what ever that yummy frozen drink was called :)

Get a script from your doctor for the patch that goes behind your ear. BEST THING EVER!

Did you book flight through the cruise line or separate?
We have done both ways. If through cruise we fly in same day if on our own we fly in at least a day before.
The cruise line has had us arriving at 2pm the same day of the cruise, that cuts it very close. In fact my parents nearly missed the boat because of a plane problem. They were detoured to Orlando waiting to fly to ft lauderdale. But since it was through the cruise line they held the ship waiting for info from Orlando. They walked in during muster.
