After a long hiatus due to the pandemic, the Rotary Club of Hot Springs Village is pleased to announce the resumption of our highly popular CruiseFest ocean voyages to the Caribbean. Our newest adventure is scheduled to depart from New Orleans on January 11, 2025, and return on January 18, with stops in Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mexico, and Georgetown, Grand Cayman.
If you are ready to spend a week in the warm weather next January, we invite you to join us at an Informational Meeting on Tuesday, April 9th, at 5:00 pm at the Beehive Neighborhood Hangout, 220 Minorca Rd., HSV 71909. Representatives from our planning partner, Sue Smith Vacations, will be on hand to go over the details of the trip, answer any questions, and make reservations.
Our ship will be the Royal Caribbean Brilliance of the Seas. Optional excursions through Royal Caribbean are available at each port of call and include snorkeling, scuba diving, touring eco parks, shopping, and relaxing days at the beach. We will also have three glorious days at sea.
Package prices include a bus from HSV to New Orleans (departing Friday morning, January 10) and from New Orleans, one night at the Embassy Suites NOLA, Friday evening dinner at Mulate’s Original Cajun Restaurant, double occupancy cabins, all on-board ship meals, entertainment, pre-paid gratuities, taxes, port fees, and travel insurance. Inside cabin, prices start at $2,249 per person for double occupancy, and balcony cabins start at $2,600 per person for double occupancy.
