  1. We were there earlier this year and I would not hesitate to take a 3 & 5 year old there. It is not just a bar, it is also a restaurant. We had lunch there, the service was slow, but the food was good. It was a little crowded and loud, but that could describe Chucky Cheese too.:D Also most of the people there will be the same ones you are cruising with.

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Enjoy your cruise.

  2. We have never been to Cozumel before and I was wondering what is their to do there?, any tips/ideas??

     

    What do you do when you go there?? :)

     

    Any tips/advise/ideas are very welcome

     

     

    We went to Nachi Cocom for the day. They only allow 100 people per day so it does not get very crowded, and there are no aqua toys so there are few kids. If you have kids in your party this may not be the best place but we thought it was very quiet and relaxing. We found the food and service to be excellent and will definitely go back.

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Enjoy your cruise.

  3. We were there earlier this year, and yes you can avoid the vendors to reach Columbus Cove. There was a path, not sure if it was 'strenuous'. I believe it was a little uneven in places, but I think that was the worse part.

  4. What is the best way to get to Columbus Cove?

    Walk or the trolley?

     

    Also, how hard is it to go back and forth between Adrenalin Beach and Columbus Cove? Some in my group may want to do Adrenalin, and and others may want to do Columbus.

    When we were in Labadee we walked from the port, maybe 15 minutes give or take. It is an easy walk, but you can also take the trolley.

    We did not go to Adrenalin Beach, but it should be an easy walk there. The place isn't that big.

     

    Here's a map for help:

    Columbus Cove is in the lower right part of Labadee, and Adrenalin Beach is in the top right.

     

    Hope this helps.

  5. Was wondering if Celebrity ever does promos like NCL does where if you book a suite, you get ALL the perks instead of just the "pick one"

     

    Sorry if this wasn't worded the best, haha! I am trying to decide what category of room I am interested in, but I don't think I could do a suite unless they had a promo where some serious perks were involved :)

     

    If you want to cruise to Hawaii, you can get all 3 perks in just a concierge class stateroom. The Sept 9, 2016 sailing from Vancouver shows you receive all 3 perks.

  6. We were in Falmouth just a couple months ago and had lunch at Margaritaville, and just walked around the port for the rest of the stay. As Musigurl said it is just a couple minutes from the ship.

    We had some friends that went with us on the cruise, and they did the RCI excursion to Red Stripe Beach. Apparently only cruisers can access the beach, and you are bussed there and back. They had a pretty good time, and that could be another option for you as well.

    You may want to recheck the number of ships in port at Falmouth. Five seems kinda high. There are other ports in Jamacia that ships can dock. Could it be five ships for all of Jamaica?

     

    Enjoy your cruise.

  7. We went to Royal Palms on Seven Mile Beach. Best beach on our cruise. Forget what the taxi cost, maybe $20 for four of us. I think there was a $2-3 per person entry fee and an additional charge to rent chairs, umbrella, and cabana. Not sure what you mean by "something with food and drinks included". It is not an AI, but they have a restaurant and bar.

     

    Hope this helped.

     

    Enjoy your cruise.

  8. We were on the Freedom a couple months ago, and she is a beautiful ship. One thing I liked to do was just sit outside the Bull & Bear, have a few beers and people watch. Usually did this after we returned from the port, and watched people walk by with their souvenir hats, shirts, etc. Sometimes you forget your on a ship.

     

    Another thing we liked was how the crew would do anything in their power to help you. It truly amazes me how they can be so positive and out going week after week with barely a break.

     

    You'll have a great time on her. Your one regret will be that you wont be able to do everything. But that is just an excuse to cruise on her again.:)

     

    Enjoy your cruise.

  9. The west bound TA will get you to N America, then you could drive across to the left coast and cruise to Hawaii. From there you could cruise to to Australia, and that would open up that part of the world. Cruise back from Australia, to Hawaii, and the left coast. Catch a reposition cruise to S America, cruise down there, catch another repo back to N America, drive to the east coast and catch an east bound TA back to The UK.

     

    I'll let you handle the Mediterranean part.

     

    Your husband is right, but then my DW says the same thing about me.:)
