jandtb Posted October 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Still have some time to go .. uh, about 107 to go, but who's counting?! DH and I are cruising the Eastern Caribbean in February on the Glory with ports in Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas. Would love to hear what your thoughts are on "must-sees" for any of the ports! And secrets of the Glory - would LOVE to hear those!! Thanks and Safe Cruising to future Cruisers!

deew0424 Posted October 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Think you just joined the cruise we are on! Personally we are just relaxing this cruise and doing the amazing beaches on this itinerary. If there are any cabana's left on Half Moon Cay I totally suggest snatching one up. We got one last time and it is heaven on earth. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted October 24, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Have a great cruise! GT is one of my favorite ports, it is just a great, relaxing beach day for us. The water is so clear. There is also a huge free pool at Margaritaville you can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManOfBethesda Posted October 24, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2014 DH and I are cruising the Eastern Caribbean in February on the Glory with ports in Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas. Would love to hear what your thoughts are on "must-sees" for any of the ports! And secrets of the Glory - would LOVE to hear those!! I was just on Glory last week doing her Western Caribbean itinerary (Belize, Roatan, Cozumel, Costa Maya) and I'm going back on two weeks from tomorrow doing the same Eastern Caribbean itinerary as you. You'll love the ship and the staff. As for secrets of the Glory.... here's a great little video I came across awhile ago on youtube that discusses little-known "secret places" on Glory and how to find them: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAHMto5 Posted October 24, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 24, 2014 We took that exact cruise this past May and it was great!! All ports are wonderful and ship is very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrigley80 Posted October 24, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Have a great cruise. Those are 4 wonderful ports. Grand Turk - we enjoy just spending the day at Margaritaville at the pool. Half Moon Cay - is a perfect beach day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deew0424 Posted October 25, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 25, 2014 That video was great! Definitely going to try and find that hidden pool/jacuzzi and the Quest show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnydayKim Posted October 25, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2014 We did these stops on the Glory in September. Great ship, great ports, great staff! I wrote a review, but we mostly just beached it in port! Have a great time, Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinisthebest Posted October 25, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2014 That video was great! Definitely going to try and find that hidden pool/jacuzzi and the Quest show! That video is great. I remebered to hunt for the gym hot tubs on the Freedom in August, and it was still a bit tricky finding the door that leads to them. The hot tub had one couple in it once out of the 3 times we went. The steam room was nice too. Never anyone in there! Can't wait to try these features on the Glory next Summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justme_85 Posted October 25, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Definitely look for the secret pool! I came across this months before my cruise this past May and made the hunt the 2nd day. Ended up using this pool every night after dinner - invited a few table mates! This was the only pool/hot tub we used the whole week. You would be amazed how many people walk in the gym and stare at it trying to figure out how to get in. I am sad the Liberty does not have one for my next cruise! Enjoy the Glory! She is a great ship!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdmundXXIII Posted October 26, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 26, 2014 (edited) Awesome! My wife and I sailed on the Glory a year ago out of Norfolk and absolutely loved the ship!! You've also got some great ports. Have a lovely time! In GT, I'd recommend snorkeling by Long Cay w/Chukka (excursion company). I believe they go there on the Reef & Rays excursion. Best reef I've ever seen in the Caribbean! Edited October 26, 2014 by EdmundXXIII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pghsteelerfan Posted October 26, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 26, 2014 It's been over four years now (certainly doesn't seem that long) but we did the same itinerary on Glory in May 2010 and it was a great cruise and you won't be disappointed with the itinerary. All are different from each other but all very beautiful. I hope you have a wonderful cruise on Glory and hope you enjoy her as much as we did.

We leave on 12-13 and are doing almost the same itinerary except that we don't go to HMC and we go to Nassau instead. Any thoughts why on our cruise this change was made. We too watched the video and want to look for the pool and hot tub. Do they have the fish and chips on the deck above the lido deck like the freedom and liberty? How about the sushi on the same deck as the casino and across from the future vacation desk? Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
