mom2mybugs Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 We leave today on freedom after a very cloudy and wet 24 hours in cocoa beach. La quinta was pricy but this world be a great place to overnight if the sun was shining. It is right on the beach and we had a dated but clean balcony room. The pool bar had good prices and the pool was small but fine. I wish they'd had a hot tub for the cold Illinois traveler seeking warmth lol! Anyway, i will not have any Internet access (can't wait to put my smartphone away for a week!) but will report my impressions of this "big ship to me." I really want to see if it feels more crowded than vision (my only other cruise). I also want to see if i like the eastern caribbean, or prefer the western itinerary of last trip. It looks like coco cay may be a buat due to crummy weather, but if we manage to render, i will get my first coco loco! Happy week everyone!

FloatMe Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Enjoy! And everything in Cocoa is dated :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerel Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Looks like you have alot to compare. At the end of this cruise hopefully you have a better feel of what you like as a cruiser....until you try oasis class with new itenarys, lol.

cruise-y Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Yes, have fun and let us know. I, personally, like the eastern Caribbean much better, but I think that is because it is more "foreign" and exotic to me since I live in Texas and I get a lot of the western Caribbean flavor already as just a daily thing.

DunkelBierJay Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Thanks for the review on the La Quinta...we are staying at the Residence Inn in a suite since there are five of us...if we bring fewer next time, I may look at the LaQuinta unless they have a room that will handle five. I know the Radisson has rooms that can, but that's a little far down given we will only stay one night. I hope you're having a great cruise!
