Overall - we are very happy with the cruise. We would cruise again. We don't have a comparison as this was our first cruise, but since I read and researched a lot, I knew exactly what I was getting into. I promised myself to write a review so it may benefit others and so here it goes...
It was Spring Break (March 25 thro March 29) and we booked this cruise way back in September 2012, and also availed for some price protection scheme. We booked thru Expedia. Paid about $3600 for 2 adults and 2 kids for a Ext-Balcony, mid ship.Not sure if it is a good deal or not. Will appreciate feedback for future references.
I think we were a little over packed (thanks to the reviews and growing list of things), but guess it was Ok. There was enough room and more in the closets.
Cabin 8152, mid ship, deck 8 with extended balcony. couldn't have asked for more. Good closet space, awesome balcony and a king bed plus a bunk bed set up. Enough and more for a family of 2 adults and 2 small kids.
