Discouraging.

Do not want to do Carnival sponsored but do not want the risk of ground transportation more than a few minutes.

Thanks for the info though!

Let me offer this: Roatan's reef is second only to the Great Barrier, Roatan is ALL about what is under the water.. any of the other activities you can find on any other island. People come from all over the world to dive and snorkel Roatan.  Better snorkeling I have only found in the south pacific. 

Does anyone know if any vendor docks are close to the ship. Want to snorkel without more than a couple minutes ground transportation.

Thanks for the comments on this thread.

Did not know duplicate cabin only key cards were available.

Very helpful.

I am seeking at least 1 or 2 other couples to split this 4 hours excursion in Nassau. Total cost is $600 so if 1 or 2 other couples jump in we can split costs evenly. If not we may still do it solo. Details are in the picture attached.. Glass bottom boat tour, snorkeling reef by boat, swimming with turtles, and beach time for lunch (lunch is extra, rum punch on boat is included).

https://www.facebook.com/Bahamas Watertours Nassau is the service provider.

Looking for adult couples only (leaving the kids at home).

Thanks!

I do have a question. Things might change by the time I go but did you check out the rewards for buying the pictures?

Guess not?

Welcome! Glad to help!

There is barely electricity on HMC

Understood. I will enjoy being unplugged completely, but at the same time, a bit worried about the kids back home. I will have to learn to trust in the sitters and grandparents and just relax on this beautiful beach.

Wifi?

Hi! Can you tell me where you decided to park for your cruise out of Mobile?

 

We stayed at the Wyndham by Wingate.

Think we paid an extra $50 for parking.

Nice hotel but they were severely late picking us back up from the terminal. So much so us and 2 other couples split the cost of another hotel van to get to our cars. The manager was a complete ASS. Wont stay there again.

We are considering this one if anyone has feedback.

Strongly considering this for my wife and I during out 6/4-6/9 cruise on Elation.

Any recent visitor reviews?

I really hate it cant be booked and reserved in advance. I am a planner.

I/we don't any condition that requires a fan, we just sleep better with one. I found an email for the special needs department, gave them my name, booking info, dates and whatnot and just asked for a fan. I got a response within a few hours that said we would have one when we arrive. We'll see. We leave in 2 weeks.

So was the fan in your room waiting on you?

It sounds like most of your time will be spent in port, so you wont be on the ship near as much to get your money's worth for the drink package.

We might do that. If we decide to come down the night before.

I did find a hotel a few blocks away with parking for $20/month without a required stay.

I am starting to regret booking Mobile. Sounds like parking and actually getting on the ship will be stressful. which is the whole point of a cruise is to get away from stress. All hotels with shuttles are already booked up (which is my fault for waiting so late). I just planned to drive directly to the port but would love to avoid some of this nightmare.

I just looked and every hotel in the area is booked solid for 1/3 for a 1/4 cruise.
