Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #127 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Summer of 69 drink is delicious! conch fritters are very yummy. Menu says a spicy batter, but honestly they aren’t. The cocktail sauce they come with is tho. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #130 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Holy moly this seafood roll is HUGE! I ended up scooping the good stuff out and leaving the bread. It was delicious. Fries are nice and crispy too. A+!!! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #132 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Before I forget, here’s a pic of the hotel room. It’s a decent hotel, but not worth the price for sure. Our room does have a nice view, but the bed is like a rock. Location is great tho. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amberdc87 Posted February 26, 2023 #134 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Glad y'all made it's safely! That sucks about the wine. Nothing wise than finding a wine you love, only to never be able to get it again. Happy cruise day!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #141 Share Posted February 26, 2023 So I’m REALLY not impressed with this hotel. They are very disorganized and we are getting conflicting information. Last night at check in we verified we had the park & cruise package, and they said they would validate our parking ticket when we returned AFTER the cruise. Nothing was mentioned about a receipt for the shuttle to the port. This morning at 7:30 we get a call saying we needed to come to the desk by 9:30 to get our shuttle receipt. What the heck? So we went to get it, and the lady goes, “you left your car with valet, right?” No, we verified last night that where we parked it was ok, and y’all said you would validate the ticket upon return from the cruise. Nope, no go, we gotta move it now…and there is no shuttle receipt. So what the heck was the phone call about??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We literally waited 20 minutes to go down. I debated hiking it, but we were on floor 11 and Chris said no way with our luggage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #144 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Get down to the pickup area, the front desk had told us to just ask for Carlos for our ride to the port. Nobody knows who Carlos is. I’m so glad a friend introduced us to Uber several years ago! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUVMYGSDOG Posted February 26, 2023 #145 Share Posted February 26, 2023 They are really trying to start your cruise day off badly!! All that and a hard mattress too! You will be on the ship soon with a nice drink (or two or three…) and all will be better! Kim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
