Sensation to Cozumel only

[jesska]

Is there a formal night on this cruise? If so, which night? Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me! : ) I'm starting to pack now, and I didn't know if there was a formal night or not....

 

Jessica

[Tom-n-Cheryl]

Yes, there is 1 formal night (Friday, Day 2).

 

You will also see 2 production shows - Friday and Sunday. (this is a plus - as on a seven night cruise, they only have two shows also!)

 

They will have an "authentic" Mexican Folklore show the evening you are in Cozumel (at perhaps 9 or 10 pm) ... they have locals come on board to put on this show - try not to miss it!

 

When are you sailing?

Hi Jessica,

My hubby and I are also on that cruise. I can't wait! We live here in Tampa Bay and the weather is beautiful and supposed to be great on Thursday. We can't get on that ship fast enough!!

[jesska]

Hey guys!

 

Peyton - I'll definitely post a review for you & Cotten! How fun to go with a bunch of your girlfriends! You guys will have a blast!

 

Mike - Thursday can't get here soon enough!!!

 

Beachbum - My husband & I are going together too! We're taking this cruise to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. We took the Voyager last year for our honeymoon & had a blast in Cozumel. So we decided to go back! We live in Sarasota - the weather is perfect for a cruise right now. I can't wait!!

[floridabeachbum]

Jesska-

I love Sarasota! We live in Palm Harbor (north of Clearwater). This cruise is a combination celebration of our three year wedding anniversary and my husband's 30th birthday.

We have never been to Cozumel. I have only been to Cancun for Spring Break back in my college days. What excursion do you plan on doing? We were thinking of doing the Fiesta Party Boat.

[jesska]

Hey Beachbum! I've lived in Sarasota practically my whole life, I absolutley love it here. If I was to move, it would only be to the Caribbean! (sp?) You'll love Cozumel! It was our favorite port. We didn't do an excursion last time. We rented a jeep and explored by ourselves, went shopping, and then ended up at Carlos n' Charlie's. That was the highlight of our cruise - we had the best time there! This time around we want to do an excursion. (or maybe by ourselves) We're trying to decide between snorkeling or snuba. We're not sure yet. I also want to go to Paradise Beach b/c you can get a massage there on the beach. I'm not sure about the price - hopefully it'll be less than what the boat will charge. (I'm still researching this) Then, of course I want to shop!! And then we plan on hitting Carlos n' Charlie's that night.

 

Congrats on your 3 year anniversary! How exciting for your husband to be turning 30! I'm not looking forward to when I do! : )

 

What all is included on the party boat?

 

(this has gotten long - sorry!)

Jesska,

I just got this off Carnival's webiste about the Party Boat Excursion. I heard good things about it on the Cozumel board and my husband and I are drinkers so I think this may be the excursion for us, then head to Carolos and Charlie's afterwards for sure!

 

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Be a part of the most famous party cruise in all of Mexico, the triple-decker “Fiestaâ€, where live music and tropical punch flow freely.

 

On this fun-filled excursion you will:

 

Be taken to Playa Sol, Cozumel’s popular beach club.

Enjoy lying by the pool, a beach volleyball game, non-motorized water-sport equipment or just spending the afternoon on the beach.

Really have fun once the Fiesta starts back to the pier with the music, open bar and the party of a lifetime. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

[jesska]

Hi Beachbum! Thanks for the info on the party boat - sounds like fun! : ) I believe Playa Sol is right next to Paradise Beach. I think we're going to wait until we get on the boat & figure out what excursion we want to do. Do you have early or late seating for dinner? We have late. Is sounds like we're in the same age group - that would be crazy if we ended up together! : )

[palmtre2]

Playa del sol is further down the road from Paradise Beach, San Francisco beach is right next to Paradise -I recommend them both.

 

4/10 Easter aboard the GLORY

 

[jesska]

Thanks for the clarification palmtre2. : )

 

zonemasconi - I'll post a review next week! : )

[floridabeachbum]

Jesska-

We have the late seating also : )

What deck are you on? We are on the Empress.

What time are you planning on getting there on Thursday?

[Brneyznfl]

If you had to choose, which would you pick? Paradise Beach or Mr. Sanchos? That pool sure looks appealing at Mr. Sanchos! I'm trying to decide for when I go on the Sensation May 6th

 

 

Next Cruises! SENSATION 5/6/04 then MIRACLE 2/13/05!

 

Triumph, Inspiration, Holiday, Explorer of the Seas, Granduer of the Seas, Glory Hounds I, Conquestadors

 

[jesska]

Beachbum - We did a 4A guarantee, so I have no idea what deck we're on ....is there a way to figure that out? We just booked this cruise like 3 weeks ago. We plan on getting there early on Thursday. Probably between 10:30 - 11:00. What about you guys? I think that is the earliest you can board.....I really don't know though. If you know anything - please let me in on it! : )

 

Brneyznfl - I haven't heard of Mr. Sancho's. What is that?

[Mike Dante]

We did Mr Sanchos beach last April while on the Sensation. It was clean, fee admission, affordable food and drinks AND it has a pool, which was a major plus..However as Paradise Beach seems to be the place to go, we will be giving it a try this week when we get there on Sat.

You can check out the ports of call board for further info on both beaches

 

Happy Sails,

Mike
