Usually around 9:30am…..

We always pre-pay our tips and will continue to do so. We also give an additional cash tip to our waiters, room steward and sometimes a special bar tender. No I am not happy with Royal increasing gratuities BUT the people who work so hard to make my cruise so wonderful have zero to do with these decisions. Just like they didn’t have anything to do with one day room service, the new dining room menus or the other cut backs. I choose to do what I do because it is the right thing for me. I do not have an opinion about what others choose to do that they feel is right for them.

You could take shuttles both to the ship and after the cruise back to the airport. Just be sure to PRE-BOOK them to assure you have a spot. Here are some of the popular shuttles for this port…

You are my people!!!!😂😂

But Cruise Critic is completely accurate…..got it….😁😁

sorry you don’t believe it….. The guy who posted on FB was very upset. He even posted a picture of the ambulance coming to pick up the poor guy who had gotten beaten up. he was onboard with his family and was quite shaken up…..

That I do not know.…..but this is definitely the group that was causing all the problems because the guy from the ship posted this… what they consider “a lovers cruise” I cannot answer….😳😳

There was a posting on FB from someone who was onboard. It was a very violent and dangerous group of people. There were multiple fights, damaged to the arcade, openly smoking pot and all kind of terrible stuff going on. one passenger asked a group to stop smoking pot in front of his kids and he was jumped and beaten so severely they had to have an ambulance take him off when they arrived back. This was after 200 out of 600 were put off the ship in Cozumel!!! This group is sailing again on the Indy Super Bowl weekend. I feel very sorry for anyone who doesn’t know this and sails with them!! Royal needs to ban this group now!! This goes way beyond the limits and severely puts other passengers in danger….

I have you all beat in the ugly department…….I place strips of lime green duct tape on all side of my luggage. You can easily spot my suitcases 100 yards away!!!😂😂😂 And NO ONE would want suitcases with duct tape on them????😂😂😂😂

you will drop off the luggage with the porters and then go right into the garage to park. Easy peasy!!

It’s only first come first serve……. We have sailed from PC probably 30+ times and drive down from the Atlanta area. We have always stayed at a hotel near the port but lately the hotel prices in that area have become ridiculous! For our next few cruises we will be staying in Titusville which is only about 15min from the port. Rates are MUCH better!!!

sorry I didn’t see that….she said “young” teen so my feelings are still the same.

Yes you can,,..

No way would I leave an 11yr old (mature or not) alone on a ship while I did an excursion. But that’s just my opinion…..😁

have you linked your reservations?

Just my opinion ……There are much, much nicer places to stay than the Radisson. They have done a huge facelift on the outside of the hotel, but zero renovations on the rooms and they are dumps!! Many complaints online and even heard some really bad stories from a waitress at a nearby hotel who says she hears multiple complaints about the Radisson every week. We have not stayed there in several years dues to issues but had some points we needed to use or lose them so we stayed there for one night about a month ago. Now I remember why we left. I will definitely not be returning……🥹🥹

We did this same cruise in August and loved it!!! It was our first time to Bermuda and we cannot wait to go back!! The Mariner is a favorite of ours so when you mentioned the quiet area around Starbucks I knew exactly where you were!! Have fun and enjoy that beautiful island!!!

On our Sept Wonder cruise we ran into a very loud, vocal and RUDE terminal worker at the entrance of the garage. We arrived about 9:20 like we have many times before and although there were already FOUR cars parked on the ramp waiting for the gate to open to go in he came flying up to our car on his scooter and screamed at us that the garage didn’t open until 9:30 and for us to leave….NOW!!!😳😳. Even though the other cars were not made to leave we left and came back at 9:35. Again this same guy comes flying up on his scooter pointing his finger at us and screamed “we are still not open I have already told you that you need to leave….NOW!” By this time my husband had had enough of his attitude and told him we were not leaving and we proceeded to get in line behind the other FOUR cars who had been there the whole time which really set him off. We told him to go get his supervisor and he sped off……then the gates to the garage opened…..and we proceeded to go in and park with the others.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ It was a very upsetting experience that I hope we never repeat with this guy again. Two weeks later we left from Terminal 5 and had the complete opposite experience. Everyone was so nice and polite and no one was yelling at anyone…..😂😂

Happpened on one of our cruises. An elderly gentleman with Alzheimer’s had gotten out of his cabin in the middle of the night and his wife was frantically trying to find him. She kept losing him all week because he seemed to always try it during sleeping hours . She said she thought he would be okay to cruise but found out it was a big mistake to try and bring him. I felt sorry for her….😢😢

First rule is to grab your drinks and silverware FIRST, grab a table and then go back for food!! For some reason people tend to fill their plates full and then wander around the buffet looking for a seat…….so much easier the other way!!

I am not going to spend hundreds of dollars on a nice cruise and then quibble about giving the last person I hand my luggage to a tip!! Not any of my business, nor do I care, what they earn or don’t earn!! I happily give them their tip and then board the ship and look forward to my vacation…...

I never, ever print my luggage tags in color and have never had a problem with delivery!!

We just did our first cruise to Bermuda on the Mariner in August and absolutely loved it!!!! And best of all it was a casino comped cruise so a win-win for us!!!!🙌🙌 Cannot wait for the chance to go back!!!
