Traveler's Logbook
What We Loved: Never had to hunt for a lounger. While the main pool deck was packed on sea days, we always found space here. The quiet atmosphere was worth every penny of the suite upgrade.
Pro Tips:
- Still arrive reasonably early on busy sea days
- Take advantage of bar service—they come to you
- Great for afternoon naps without noise
- Don't forget sunscreen—it's still sunny!
If you're booking a suite anyway, this is one of the best perks for sea day relaxation.
