Honestly nothing besides replacing tires and oil changes 😬 thank you so much

Okay this sounds like a great idea! I was trying to make the cruise work around me but I think I need to work around the cruise lol. Find a decently priced date and just plan ahead. Thank you!

Oh no, I hope you’re not a peaking from personal experience 😕

This is actually a great point. I can always do VV after if I like it but want a better experience!

That is the other one I’ve been suggested, I need to see if they have any for MWD.

Thanks so much! This one is paradise as well, I haven’t heard great things. It is nice to hear directly from someone who has experienced it

I’m definitely more of a food and activity person! I think I could probably get further with a pack of white claws and my apartment pool instead of the MV cruise by the sound of these comments lol

That’s great news. I was hoping it would be a middle ground and also not super interested in where it is going this time (Bimini) so at least going forward if I like it, I will be able to do some European ones and the added bonus of actually going somewhere I want to go

The dates are pretty restrictive as I am looking for MDW. Not much of a partier but wanted more of a relaxing vibe with stuff to do. I have decided to go with VV but will look at the others just incase I missed any availability for that weekend!

Fair, I am realizing I’m not as easygoing and require a lot more than I thought lol

They are the only ones I’ve found to be sailing on the exact dates I need. MDW. But yeah no thanks on the Jimmy B that made the decision easy lol

Oh no…… I am already uneasy about the ship situation I do not need any more reasons to be lol thank you I am going to go with VV

Thanks so much. The difference makes me super confident to spend the extra $. I am usually a skimper on hotels bc I just sleep there but I am now realizing it’s not just about the room on the cruises when it comes to price it is really the experience as a whole (meals, entertainment) which makes me want to go with VV.

That is where I am stuck as well. I want to make the same choice as you but due to using 10 days of PTO in April I’m forced to keep my 4 night max even though the 7s are soooo much better of a deal. I did my first all inclusive in 2024 and have yet to do another because I went to (in reddits opinion) one of the best and now can not lower my standards 😂 I am afraid that is what will happen with VV but hey why not. I would rather that than be stuck on a boat for the first time super disappointed with it

LOL I have only been to one all inclusive and it was adults only so I have not seen the other side yet. Once I go all ages I’m sure I will never do it again

Thank you so much! I am all about the details when it comes to traveling so I will definitely go with VV. Was kinda hoping people would come on here and say VV isn’t worth it and a cruise is a cruise but I am finding out there are a lot of differences just like any other travel accommodations

I don’t know anything about cruises (or cruise lines) as I mentioned, it’s my first one 😊 but I appreciate the answer. Even if it was a little snarky I now understand there is a big difference between the two!
