Other Cruise and Vacation Deals

Yeah, but the bad part is you gotta go to Cuba!!!

If I want tropical, I'm Hawaii-bound!!

Go find an all inclusive trip to Hawaii then for 15 days - nothing under 5K ! (If you can find one that is - most just offer a room, with no meals or drinks).
And Cuba does have a beautiful ocean and beaches. Not much industry there, not polluted and the friendliest staff I ever met.
It's my paradise, anything you wanna drink, even the minibar fridge in your room gets filled once or twice per day.
All free, and cigs start at 65 cents a pack, too.
Money goes very far there...besides you don't need much, besides maybe some rum to take home, or famous Cuban Coffee or Cigars, and maybe a few souveniers.
Tipping you do in form of goods, not money (they can't keep it).

I have a house on Oahu, do you still want to dare me to find a better deal????

How much is the flight to Hawaii from your place, about $500 return ? Then transportation to your house.
That leaves you with $389 to spend for 15 days.
I guess you can cook at home, bring your own lawn chairs to the beach, hopefully you have a swimming pool, or you'll need to pay for that, too.
I know one thing - you sure won't be living like me in Cuba off $25.93 per day ($389 divided by 15 days).

Doesn't even allow you to eat out once per day !

Did I mention, besides the 4 pools that Cuban resort has, it has 4 bars, about 5 different restaurants (western, cuban italian, etc) and and an all you can eat Buffett resturant, too ? Even has disco.
All free watersports too, like Kajaking, Canouing, snorgelling, and more.

You'ld need to rent that from your $25 dollar daily allowance, too.

Are there nude beaches in Cuba, Klein?

Not that I care..... A friend wanted me to ask.... Yeah, a friend....that's the ticket!

Actually, from the above pic above, the resort I went to, there is another one up the road, or you can walk the beach to it, about 3 miles (5km). They have a nudy beach there. I forgot the name of that specific nudy resort (it isn't mandatory to be nude, but many are - and only at the beach, not in the resort itself), but I can get the name of it, if you wanted it. It's in Cayo, Santa Maria.
They probably have more of them around, too, but not sure.

Gee, for $59 a day, with flight, hotel, no extra charge for booking a room for yourself (no double occupancy required), and all you can drink and eat 24hrs per day - you can't beat that price !

I think I'll go again, as soon as the temperture here gets into the deepfreeze zone.

If I wanted to go on a cruise, I would chose the all inclusive cruise I posted earlier in this thread.
Paying for water, sodas and alcohol beverages all day long would break me ! - Not for me, sorry.

OOOppps, I didn't post it, but wanted to..... hang in there... I'll do so :)

That's all that would fit, but you get the idea. Everything included, even tips, plus $200 shipboard credit..... Atleast I would know, I won't go for broke LOL

It sails on April 29th, 2012.

Not really, because they set that up, too. Hotel nights and flight is only $288.
A ticket for me to Florida return is atleast $500 or more, with no hotel !

I went on a cruise once. That cruise lasted 11 months in the Gulf of Tonkin off the coast of North Vietnam. I was nineteen; what a waste.

Not a waste.

This cruise helped develop the man you were yet to be...

And I thank you for spending time on that cruise.....

God Bless you.

And how was it ? It's getting really good reviews, even though it only stops in Bermuda, but atleast you have time to explore the Island for 3 days :)

Good time was had by all. I would have gone too, but couldn't get that vacation week.

See in the above offer, it would be best to book a suite for the 3 of you. It would be $749, plus $299 for the extra person (suite sleeps 4 easily).
That would bring down the price per person to $349 each.
And with a suite you enjoy extra luxeries, too. From free laundry to free room service, free mini fridge refill and much more.
