Following - we cruise in April. We have stayed in the Getaway FW PH and I loved the cabin! Enjoy.

 

 

 

I have been very happy with the Penthouse. TONS of storage and the bathroom space is amazing. I brought some bath bombs and plan on soaking a couple nights (we live in Arizona and I have guilt filling up a bath tub).

 

My only negative feelings about the room is that it’s not connected to Haven - and being on deck 10 makes it a little hike. But it’s doable.

On the Getaway 6/3/18

 

Since you're in the Haven you may not know but, any idea how long it took for the Vibe tix to sell out?

 

We are only 'Bronze' on NCL. If they are all sold to priority boarders I would rather not rush to try & get on the ship early just to find out they are all gone.

 

Thanks & have a great time.

 

 

 

I am sorry I don’t. I did hear the women behind speaking about getting them (but she was a platinum level priority board).

Will do. Costa Mya and Roatan we do not have anything planned. Harvest Caye we rented a Beach Villa (super excited for this) and in Cozumel we are doing ATV Jungle tour and beach snorkel.

 

I plan to post from Harvest Caye since the Villa has WiFi.

You have me thinking about upgrading to a FW PH. I remember the walk was a bit but heck it was exercise for all the eating I do.

I wouldn't worry about this. They hold some back for Haven guests. See the Haven Consierge when you board.

We are on in May! Looking forward to you sharing your experience. Enjoy!

I hope you enjoyed your first day at sea!

 

IF it is at all convenient I'm really trying to find out if we can plan one dinner for our group of 10 at Teppanyaki. Pics look like only eight but maybe they would squeeze two more?? Ten crazy Golf Bags at a hibachi table - priceless :')

we get 2 nights of specialty dining restaurants, as we are platinum plus, I know that the bistro is one of the choices, do you know the others that are included?

[Shidah]

Thanks for the Haven pics! Keep the updates coming!!

[Oldgoat61]

Thanks for your response, I too am following! I really enjoy the pics. :D

[TOMTOMRN331]

Well it’s 0728 in Costa Mya and we are pulling into the pier. The weather, as you can see is a bust (rain) ... but like yesterday it cleared in the morning

 

We are docked next to Costa Deliziosa

If you search in the latitudes information online it should say. We are gold and don’t have that option yes. We will be platinum next year.

 

I think Cagneys is the other option.

Last night we saw Cirque Dreams and Steam and the dinner show last night.

 

First - Best money I have ever spent on a show on a cruise ship. Amazing! I was so memorized I didn’t take many pics. As Haven guests the concierge escorted down the “special lift” an directly into the theater before general seating. All of Haven were seated at stage side tables. Food was ok. Tenderloin and potatoes and a trio of small desserts.

Joey is the Assistant Cruise Director acting as CD this week ONLY while Paquito is at a system wide Cruise Director's Conference.

The rain has stopped .. for a bit. Though it’s overcast and dare I say in the cool side.

 

Walked around the port and shops. Standard souvenir type merchandise and jewelry international. The large pool area looks like it would be a lot of fun.

 

Many of the merchants are having issues with credit card payments, which is frustrating ...

 

Found a bar near the dolphin experience ... enjoy some pictures.

Enjoying your review, thank you for sharing. I just noticed from another thread I am following, that you and the Equinox are in port together.

 

From gordylad's thread on the Celebrity board. Too funny! Both are good live reviews. Enjoy the rest of your cruise and hope the weather improves.

We were on this cruise last week. On Costa Maya there are free shuttle busses into town and the beach. We did this and did a spot of sunbathing on beach. In Roatan we arranged an island tour and visit to Sloth and Monkey hangout direct with Daniel Johnsons Facebook page. Only $40 each and well worth it. You have option in include snorkelling if required.

I think Platinum+ gets same as Platinum. In that case one voucher is for Le Bistro or Cagneys and the other voucher is for Moderno or La Cucina.

Following... Glad you are having fun! We will be on the Getaway in 33 days. We love the Getaway!
