OHpinchbug Posted January 30, 2019 #352 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Wow!! I am loving looking at your pictures. I have to wait until July for our cruise. It is freezing cold in Cleveland, Ohio today. Your review is keeping me warm. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never been before and we’re able to book it on points. We have it booked for March as well, so hopefully it will be good. As for Symphony that’s awesome. We board Symphony March 9th... I’m really looking forward to Playmakers and Hooked. I will admit, I’m jealous. It's a good choice, one of our fave hotels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are currently sitting in the Concereige Lounge on the 36th floor waiting for our room to be ready. We arrived at 4:40 pm and check in is at 4pm. It is now 6:55pm and our room is still not ready. They also have no idea to when it will be ready. With the Marathon going on there is not availability of rooms either. This is our first visit to this highly rated hotel and needless to say we have not been impressed. We had to cancel a dinner reservation for the Yardbird at 6:30 pm and we have had to cancel another reservation we made for a different location for 7pm. Totally unacceptable. I really don’t know what else to say, than you take your chances if you book here. After all it’s not we showed up at noon looking for an early check in. Oh no! That's awful luck! We've always gotten early check in and had requests accommodated. What a crummy first impression! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love those maple cream cookies picked up 3 boxes last May when I was in that tourist trap city of Niagara Falls. Drink a Miami Vice for me since I wont be able to have one until our cruise on the Symphony in October. I’ve already had a few of MV for you. Anything with Maple Syrup is good.

You are correct in that if the people walk off the water taxi and head for the ocean end of the pier, then my directions will be incorrect. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to run the gauntlet but make it safe and sound. Once we said were we were going they let us be. 3 hours ago, jaspercat said: that lunch sure looks good and I'll trade you my kale salad for it! Beautiful sunset pics. Thanks, and no... I won’t swap for kale. 🙂 2 hours ago, Pratique said: Are we sure that Andrew isn't a clandestine Royal Caribbean ambassador with these reports? Sending him to the Caribbean in the dead of winter, far from the polar vortex, to sit on a beach and remind us how much better life is on a cruise... The RC website is one click away... LOL I wish. Mr B, send me and Lisa on vacation and I’ll gladly pimp out my words and pics. 2 hours ago, holiday-shrek said: Not true!

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 30, 2019 Author #371 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Some pics from our walk to Holland House. Still love this. Loved the sign but the lady just didn’t move. So she’s in it. There was minor visuals of damage everywhere if you were looking, and then there are large obvious ones. This was right on the walking strip. I’d eat here. One could only hope that they have ribs. Time for the the ice bucket challenge. Edited January 30, 2019 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luv06012012 Posted January 31, 2019 #375 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I’ll never get tired of St. Maarten. I’m addicted to the little coconut smoothie stand at the port. I think you convinced us to have a Holland House day on our visit there in August. I just gotta figure out where Alex and Ani is in relation to the are. It should be somewhere on that main road of shops.Loving all your pics [emoji907]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
