4x4TX

Just got off the valor and the burgers to me get a little downgraded every trip. As others have said, first the fries and now the cheap bun. I like the Ringer and its still good but not like it was originally.

I did not go to the bathrooms but they were across the street as a few in my party went over there. I dont think it was anything special but they did have access. I guess when I say nets, right before the channel there was these wooden stakes with nets on them just like at Jamie's running down the beach a few hundred yards out that I assume is for the seaweed.

Me too it didnt even cross my mind honestly. We had some bad traffic around Baton Rouge that put us behind about an hour but I really didnt think much about it.

Well not sure about booking in advance, but my understanding as others have posted on here you can choose AI or ala carte at blue reef. I was not aware of that either as last time we paid the AI price but no way it was a good deal for my party. My group isnt big drinkers and eating so much on the boat there is only so much you can eat out so it just doesn't make much sense for us. The place wasn't full so maybe that is why it worked out I don't know. There was maybe 3-4 family's there including us with still plenty of room. I assume the others were cruise passengers. I think there was two other boats in port that I could see. The beach was spread out and yeah it has the nets like blue reef does keeping some seaweed out. Some still makes it through but it was fine. The beach next door had seaweed on it and you could definitely smell it.

We just got back from Lunas this past Monday. We had some mixups but Jamie made it right. 1)They didnt have our reservation when we got there 2)Although I asked about the ala carte package they automatically charged me the all inclusive price. I saw there was two menus and asked when we got there but was told the little menu was the only one to use. 3)At check out, because we didn't stay but a few hours and didn't order much food or drink, we opted for the ala carte which totally confused on our waitress. She had to call Jamie after a few minutes of disagreement and then had to go through her pad to reprice everything. We got it figured out but it just made things uncomfortable for my party of 8. At that point I let the $2 per per cab refund go. 4)Later that night Jamie emailed me and refunded me some money back for all the issues. They are obviously still working out the kinks but in the end I knew Jamie would make it right so all good. As for the setup, it was fine. Very similar to Blue Reef except I only saw one vendor while we there for just a second. Beach was good, there was paths through the sea grass to get areas to sit or hangout. Snorkeling around a bid we found a really cool crab and some good shells. It was a relaxing place and personally being on the end vs in the middle at blue reef was a plus for me.

We got there about 12:30 or so.

Well got a surprise on Saturday when we rolled up and the port garage was full. If it had just been my family going I would have done the Fulton garage but was going with the sis in laws family as well so thought it would be easy to park onsite. Well to our surprise it was full and we got pushed into overflow lot H which was across the way a bit from the port. I wasnt real happy with that but in the time crunch and crazyness we went with it. Car was still there when we got back today so it worked out but I had not seen that happen to anyone else so fyi.

boom I got it, see what you did.

I usually cruise out of Galveston but heading to NO this weekend for a 5 day cruise. I am leaning towards just using the port parking even though its more expensive but not too much. $25 flat rate at day vs $19 a day at Fulton It seems like for a newbie maybe the convenience is worth the extra not having to mess with a shuttle.

Ok cool, I just used the link from st gregs links and it was the neworleansparking.com site so I didnt know there was another way to book it.

Has anyone been to his new place Lunas Beach Resort?

i applied 17 GCs to this cruise and the only one that rejected was the one that went over my balance by literally $4.

Well I just tried to do that. I had a $96 balance and tried to use a $100 gift card but it was rejected. I will use it for wifi or something but it wouldnt take it for me and I just ran $4500 worth of gift cards through.

What happens lets say you only owe 1900 but apply 2000 worth of gift cards? Does balance go on sign and sail as a credit or stay on the gift card?

Just found this old thread after wondering about this. My family took the Valor in 2014 out of SJ and it has been our favorite cruise, hate that it is gone.

There is an option to add gift cards at the top and then at the bottom you put in the total as other amount to process online.

I dont know anything about this one but looks similar? https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Products-g150809-d1064411-Playa_Mia_Grand_Beach_Park-Cozumel_Yucatan_Peninsula.html Does anyone know it?

Looking forward to your review, we are doing this cruise for spring break with some extended family. Curious why if you are from Houston you guys choose to sail out of other ports? We are also from the Houston Area and choose New Orleans for this next cruise simply because it was much cheaper than Galveston. Not crazy about the 5 hour drive but it was worth it this time.

I just did the process for the first time. No issues downloading and registering for the app. I linked my account and submitted. Interested to see how long it takes. I have promotion OBC so I assume no issues adding this OBC to my account.

Anyone been to this place lately? I was about to book at Jamies but saw this one. Looks like maybe the beach is nicer? https://www.almaplenabeachresort.com/beachclub/costamaya-beach_break.htm
