We went last October & had the best first cruise anyone can have! We went snorkeling for the first time at St John's island (Trunk bay excursion) & fell in love with snorkeling. We took the America's Cup race excursion in St Martins & loved it. I was the beer queen. That afternoon we walked through town which was very picturesque & then rented a couple of chaises near an outdoor bar & right by the wayer's edge. In Nassau, we took a taxi tour of the island & had the driver drop us off at the Atlantis Hotel which was really incredible!<BR>Anyway, back to the ship. Our service was fantastic and so was the food. We had an inside cabin which was fine with us since we spent very little time there. We spent some time just sitting on a decl reading, lounging by the pool and then we went to the spa one day & did the rasul treatment (for couples). This was one of the highlights of our trip. For a little extra we also each had a water treatment afterward. My husband spent 1/2 hour in an aromatherapy bath & I had another type of bath. Hard to explain here. We liked it so much, we are going on the Galaxy, Century's sister ship, in March with my parents. Let me know if you need to know more. Have a great time.

Thanks Sparks! What did you do at St Thomas and San Juan? I can't decide which beach to go to on St Thomas. I think I want to go to Coral World so we'd go to Coki Beach but I'd like to go to Sapphire Beach also. I also want to do the Rasul treatment. I've heard that it's great. I hope you have a great cruise on the Galaxy. Thanks again.

On St Thomas we took the tour to St John's Trunk Bay for snorkeling. It was picture-postcard pretty. I would do it again in a minute. In San Juan, because we docked late, we took a taxi vsn with some other passengers we had met & toured old San Juan, the fort, etc. He let us off in Old San Juan & we walked around & looked in stores. It is close to the dock, so we just walked back to the ship.

Please tell me more about the Rasul & water treatments. I leave on Feb. 9th for the E. Caribbean on the Century. My husband has already expressed an interest in a massage, so I would like details on the couples Rasul treatment. Do you recall price?

Wife,Son (6yr) and myself went in Nov. It was a very nice cruise. We have been on all the major lines and rate it up there with the best of them for value for the money and the food was great. Had problems getting the early seating for dinner but was able to work things out. If you have any Kids they have a great program for them. Son did not want to spend much time with us. Room was nice and they do not push the drinks too hard.
