Quick advice for a first time cruiser?
OK, so my father is turning 70 later this month and he and my mom want to take our family (5 adults, 2 kids) on a cruise in June. Looking to probably do a 4-5 night deal and would like to upgrade to suites with a balcony for a little more space. Figure we could do 3 adults in one room and 2 adults/2 kids in the other with pull out sofas.
So, I was looking at Royal Caribbean Enchantment of the Seas 4 night Bahamas cruise that leaves from Miami.
Other than that, I have no idea what I am doing. Not sure if 4 or 5 nights make a difference, what ports to try and target, if this older ship is even a good option. Help!
I am guessing that we will do a mix of snorkeling and walking the ports with some rest and relaxation while on the ship. My wife would be a big fan of a decent gym and a nice pool on the boat.
Anyone give me advice or point me out to a website to visit? Sorry, I am so lost!
