Reviews
Our Captain was a wealth of knowledge regarding Tampa and it's history. Highly recommended!
Captain Larry was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. It was a wonderful experience
This cruise has a little history and a lot of bad jokes. It has no toilets, no food, and no comfortable seats. In other words, don't take it!
The reception staff were courteous and helpfull. Although not used by us, the hotel's swimming pool looked great and was used by a number of guests. The room was clean and the bed was quite comfortable, BUT for some reason it was the noisest we have ever slept in, every time you turned over it sounded as if the springs were about to collapse --- this should definitely be looked into, also the shower tap was very hard to make work ie turn on. The hotel's dining room and breakfast menu were definitely above expectation. Would we stay there again --- yes. AND the hotel's airport shuttle is an extra bonus.
