Our trip to South Caribbean started from San Juan. American Airlines has a direct flight from Dallas, Texas to San Juan and as always, the travel with AA was a pleasure (as Executive Platinum they treat you well).
We stayed the first night at the Sheraton by the Carnival Cruise terminals, the distance from the hotel to the dock was a short walking distance.
The second night we spent at a golf resort in Embassy Suites, Dorado del Mar. Very nice location, but far too many people for me to enjoy the pool... One could hardly see the water in the pool... not something I care about. It did not disturb my kids... they enjoyed it for a full day!
The cab drive to and from Embassy Suites was 70 US both ways so that is something one has to consider when selecting the hotel.
We spent a nice evening in the old downtown of San Juan, we even found a Starbucks that had been recently opened. Sorry.... Prisoner of habits... My venti soy latte is important....
The ship took off to St Thomas very late in the evening.... 10.00 PM local time. In the morning, 07.00 AM the ship arrived... If you can, I suggest you check out the rising sun each morning and enjoy the arrival to each new port that the cruise line takes you.
Stay tuned...
