[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From talking to people, I have come to the conclusion that some people are cruise people and some people are not. I have not tried it, but I don't think I would be a cruise person. If I do try it, though, I've heard Disney is the best.[/quote]

I agree with this.

I think I could be a cruise person but my DH is very much not one, so we're unlikely to try one. At least not until we are old (he might be willing to do it once we are retired).

DH doesn't even really like all-inclusive resorts. We've done a couple and he's fine for the first two days and then he gets bored with the resort, annoyed by the food, and wants to rent a car and go somewhere else. His preference is to stay in a hotel in a walkable area or right near the beach, do some excursions on our own to see sights, do beach and pool, and then go to restaurants in whatever town it is. I agree that is fun, it's just takes more work to plan, which is part of the appeal of a resort or cruise for me (as the vacation planner).[/quote]

My husband was like yours. In fact, he said we weren’t “cruise people” and told me I made a huge mistake when I booked our first family cruise. Long story short: he quickly became a fan.

The key is to avoid the group excursions and book an itinerary that is port-heavy so your spouse can have beach time and new places to explore.

Now my husband gets bored spending several nights at luxury beach resorts. I think he enjoys spending the day in a different place along with the live music and evening entertainment.

And if your husband likes Indian food, it’s always really good on cruise ships (lots of Indians work in the kitchen). [/quote]
