"My wife and I enjoyed our stay the night before a cruise. We got there about 2 hours before check in and had no problem with an early check in. We exploring at our own pace and the only thing we didn't do was to go out on the bow that afternoon because of 96 degree temps .We went out there the next morning LOL Dinner that night and breakfast the next morning was good. I would recommend a stay here at least once to see how they cruised back in the day."
