This particular cruise I referred to was one of the “most interesting” cruises we have been on weather wise. Head the booms all night long. And you’re sure it was the waves? 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had someone cruising with us going thru a tropical storm and he said he ended up on the floor in the middle of the night. That would make it memorable. I have occasionally wondered if cruise lines should offer a few pirate themed rooms with ship hammocks rather than beds. Different kind of swingers. 1 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatinaInTexas Posted May 4 #1162 Share Posted May 4 29 minutes ago, Saint Greg said: No nothing like that. For my 25th cruise I get to apply 25% OBC to any future cruise. The one I’m talking about is the one I’m going to use that OBC on. And it was on my mind during room selection that I’ll get 25% back so it’s not my typical room. Ahhhh I see, should have known only gamblers get comp cabins☹️ It's still a good perk to get to splurge on a new cabin type. I think I would like a Havana Cabana if I could splurge😁 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only watch about 5 movies a year but Fall Guy looks just about dumb enough for me to enjoy. Saw Barbenheimer last year. Both were great but you can guess which met my mandatory dumb threshold. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatinaInTexas Posted May 4 #1166 Share Posted May 4 6 hours ago, KmomChicago said: I am behind as you know I am sorta dealing with heavy personal issues but I have been meaning to mention that when I sailed Vista two years ago, we were also in an end forward cabin on a secret deck and our “high wind” sign never came down for 5 minutes the entire week, even when we were docked in Mexico with warm sunny days and no wind whatsoever. It was room 6206. Therefore we commenced civil disobedience signwise roughly at the midpoint of the cruise and helped ourselves to the bench whenever we felt like it. We weren’t the only ones as occasionally (rarely) we could hear someone head out there. I'm booked on the Vista on Deck 6 in one of those cabins next year. Did your cabin have a sofa? Was it quiet? I was concerned being close to kids stuff. Usually pick as far aft as I can get for quiet, never stayed up front. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it quiet? I was concerned being close to kids stuff. Usually pick as far aft as I can get for quiet, never stayed up front. My room didn’t have a sofa or even an easy chair though there was more than ample floor space. Greg has a nice chair now but no idea if they smartened up and added to the Vista rooms. The sea boom sound was mostly at night on the first and last nights when cap’n was running full bore over open water to leave US soil behind and get us towards Central America and later the same in reverse. Otherwise the room was extremely silent. I am a bit claustrophobic and loved the airy open floor plan and I liked the view from the window out over the deck during daylight. You have to close your curtains at night. Never saw any kids that way. Those rooms are all doubles I think so mostly adult couples.

I was in a grand suite on Carnival Legend and Cloud9 on Radiance. I wouldn’t pay more than a 20% premium for the first or 10 for the second. I believe I actually paid more for my half of the grand suite than a solo balcony room would have cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
