The rooms – reality
Unless you book the most expensive suite on the ship, you’re in for a surprise, as this is what most rooms on a cruise ship really look like. Cruise ships look big on the outside, and they are, but they can usually host hundreds of people, which means not all rooms can be as big as promised.
Likewise, in most rooms, you won’t get an ocean view as promised, but the second best thing – a photo of a beach hanging on the wall. Maybe this one’s on us, and our expectations are simply too high – we can’t expect a bedroom in a cruise ship, even their finest suite, to be as large and accommodating as a 5-star hotel bedroom.
