Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks so much Hank! Your info is invaluable…..live PV and excited to be back after so many years…if only for the day 🤗 cheers!
  2. I agree with the musical comments. Used to love Mike McCabe as the one man piano guy getting the crowds singing. Live music by the pool and in the crows nest (usually a guitarist), adagio strings. The ocean bar also had the HAL cats and was often going strong after dinner. Is it me or does HAL even have a band that can back performers in the world stage anymore? I usually enjoy BB King but the last cruise it felt like the catalogue was small and each song lasted for far too long. The two person piano show had no chemistry at all. Still I love HAL and will be back on board soon 🤗
  3. Do you have any gem you would recommend for Mexican? we have three stops in Mexico so perhaps I will invest in some pesos for the trip 🤗
  4. Thanks so much ….I remember that lighthouse from when I stayed in the marina in the 90’s (lol). We are also thinking about a restaurant downtown called Pipi’s (heard the bus is .50cents USD per person into Centro from just outside the cruise port) still some to,e to plan but you’ve been super helpful. Might be nice to see the Malecon ….it’s been a while 😊
  5. Thanks so much….we may walk there and cab back to the port 🤗
  6. Great news and thanks you so much for this! Can totally walk a mile no problem. I had not known the bridge had a sidewalk 🤗
  7. Hi all we are in PV in April and thought it might be fun to have dinner in the marina. Anyone know cab fares for that outing? I see it is not walkable from google maps. Thanks!
  8. Ah yes….the good old days of surf and turf on gala nights are long gone and now land and sea only. Lobster an extra charge everywhere. I did hear you get four tails for $25 in the main dining room (not sure it is true) but I do believe it should not be an up charge in the pinnacle for those who want it.
  9. Right?!?!….for me I guess if this is my biggest problem I am pretty darned lucky 🤗😊
  10. I think I agree with you …Tamarind is amazing and if you like a pre dinner cocktail the Tamarind Bar is a lovely place with amazing views. i like the red curry chicken but so many tasty options
  11. MY I ask what ship you are on…I’m sure many would love to help out with recommendations 😊
  12. For me the biggest shock is a Pina Colada is no longer included for $11. Has to be one of the most popular warm weather beverages….or….maybe that’s the point. .50 cents per drink will add up nicely for HAL. Also up goes the price on the evening martinis. I have SBP for my April cruise …Don’t t get me wrong if I want either one I’ll pay but historically the SBP limit would increase along with the drink prices on these favorites. I guess they reached their breaking point. one good tip…don’t buy a mimosa with your SBP …get a full glass of bubbles and make your own with lido breakfast orange juice 😂
  13. I feel very fortunate that last year on an Alaska cruise we were upgraded from inside cabin to veranda….completely free🤗
