Amber Cove’s port pool area is fantastic with a gorgeous pool and a cool bar up high on the hill. Great view. Hope you get to enjoy it sometime. I think in the DR the shirt sign means no tank tops for men in restaurants, they need to have sleeves on shirts. Also women need tops over swimsuits, not just shorts or waist wraps. That was our past experience at All inclusive resorts in Punta Cana.
We've enjoyed Amber Cove quite a few times. I believe we were one of the very first ships to port into the "brand new" Amber Cove back in 2015, ha ha... good times!! :D
YOU GUYS ARE AN ADORABLE COUPLE!!! Will watch more! The day pass was toooo much though. Most of the all inclusives there, cost about that per day - for an entire 24 hrs and accommodation. Too many rip offs these days
Oh that snickers pound cake looked sooo good. I will have to order that in April….Love to watch your videos they are so upbeat even with some negative events you encounter🚢😊
MILWAUKEE???? Of course, it's a BEER house! Still, I love that there's a Milwaukee at that resort!! The bus tour guy was VERY enthusiastic!! I loved when you listed all the things that the DR was known for...and it repeated so many of them. I agree; the music at the parties can sometimes literally blow your eardrums right out. God Bless!
Thanks for trying to show options. I probably wouldn't pay $60 to sit at a resort when I am on a cruise, so it baffles me how they have a $159 price tag. Looked like a good time, but as a solo traveler there is no way I'm taking off my rashguard to get in the pool...I'd be burnt in about 30 minutes! 🤣
Hi, thanks for the awesome video. I will be going on this excursion as well and I'm wondering if the alcoholic fruit drinks were free? I'm hoping to have a pina colada or something like that included. On our excursion description it only says local beer, wine, water and coke. Also, about how long did it take you to get from the ship to the resort on the bus? Thanks!
I am with you, Jay I’m trying to justify the cost of your private beach pool outing. You’ve been to nicer places than this one for a lot less cost. And Dee, I’m sorry you didn’t get any snorkeling in. 😢 The glow party look like a lot of fun, but very noisy!
Good morning. Question: How do you determine which beach or beach club/resort will be visited on a ship excursion before booking it? The vast majority of the time, I don't see a name or location. We're looking to start trying out the beach excursions directly and not just as a quick stop add on to other excursions.
A lot of times, the cruise line doesn’t specify and they can change the location depending on wherever they want to go that day. This particular excursion mentioned Emotions Resort in the description, which was the only way we knew, hah.
oh wow!!! my find of the day ...your shop!!! i had no idea. wow love the sun visor and sleep mask ... i have not seen u share these two treasures... Dee i do not think u realize how many of us r inspired by your style ... love love love the swim suit bottoms ... my sister has bought many of them. she wears them under her sundresses. says she feels modest n covered w them ...u know when the wind blows
Dee will u wear the sun visor soon? hope to see it on n hear a review. does the top of your head...uh feel ok? has it ever been sun burnt wearing a visor instead of a cap?
Was suppose to go to Puerto Plata in December on NCL Getaway. They said it was too windy which seems and looked like BULL to me, got a 10 dollar refund check later after being refused anything at first but seems like a scam to me. Then we were going to the NCL private island Great Stirrup Cay to replace Dominion Republic but it was too windy to go there too, don't think they even tried. Will try another company next time.
We had issues on Escape earlier in January....weather had them cancel Puerto Plata and their private island.....soooo bummed. They gave us the port fees back for the island and we went to Nassau for like 4 hours....not the same at all
Not to be too negative but I'd never pay $159 to go to a cold pool, and a non snorkel ocean beach and bad steak. Looks like you guys make the best of every adventure
i hated the escape thats crazy the glow party was in spice so small and it sucked but had fun still escape worse ship i been on layout and all breakaway and joy better and the sky
Love Dee “you are perfect the way you are”
Amen
10:02 Best wife EVER!!! speaking truth and love into her husband's life!!!
Next Trip Guys hit up Rolling Stones ! Emotional Rescue ! I think I'll do it in January 2024 !! GREAT JOB AWSOME VIDEO
!!! You tell him Dee! you are perfect the way you are. I love that so much
Lol when he goes off the list of Porto plata I died inside 😂😂😂😂😂
I CRACKED UP at the list on screen from the bus driver. 🤣🤣🤣
Good morning! Puerto Plata is … something else, hilarious 😆!
It brightens my day every time there’s a new video😊
Thank you for taking the time to talk and take a photo with us it was great to meet you both ❤
The bus guy is everything....he made my day! You guys are so positive and made the best of the day!
I loved the pool living room!!❤😂

Sweet Emotion! Lol
Jay is rocking his inner Mr. Wilson (home improvement) in the pool! ❤️

The resort look real nice
Love the sock of the day
Hi. Great video
You both are so funny. I laughed so hard...:-)
Good morning!
I really enjoyed u all videos

Yes the Escape Glow Party was amazing!!!! Just went on the Escape in January. The cruise director staff were amazing overall!!!!
You guys and your “emotion” songs!!! You should go on tour🤣😍
I'm not a beach person but that looks really pretty. Your tour guide souds like great fun too.

Lovely video 📷
At the dancing there is a guy in a white shirt!!!!!! Put yours on JAY!
I've got my bonafide rash guard swim shirt now, so I can swim in peace without wasting a ton of sunscreen, ha ha... :P ~Jay
Looked like a fun day
HAHA the club song references the New York City club "The Tunnel" back in the 90s... hahah
I was wondering if anyone was going to know that😂
Brought me back over 20 something years🤦🏽♀️.
@@stephaniehargrove the way Jay said tunnel I had to comment on it lol
We’re going to be on the Encore this December. What is the temperature like on the islands in December?
The party was "all about that bass"

Jay “ I don’t want to explode” 😂
18:51 it would be cool 😎 for each cruise line to have their own horn SONG like Disney 💛🧡💜💙💚🤎🤍❤🖤💙💗💛💙💚🖤🤍💛💗
I think that one was great shores?
Some itineraries say Amber Cove and some say Puerto Plata. Are they the same? Or different docks? Thanks
Two different ports in the Dominican Republic, yes.
Isn't Amber Cove a Carnival Corporation built port? Why would the Norwegian Encore dock at Carnival's port?
It is! I guess other brands down there based on availability down at the other port. But I’m sure they have to pay Carnival a pretty penny!! :P
I’m with you Jay. I’m a T-shirt in the pool guy too. I’m afraid people would try to harpoon me if I went shirtless.
"We win the bridge height battle"🤣

Totally agree with Jay the excursion was overpriced.
I’m surprised to see a Norwegian ship in Amber Cove. Isn’t Amber Cove a carnival development?
It is! NCL seems to get bumped over there if there are too many ships at the other dock though.
how do you find day resorts on different islands? saint lucia,st kitts
Resort For A Day website, most times.
@@parodeejay thank you so much!!! really enjoy your videos.
Dee, where did you get your bathing suit
Two separate pieces! The top is Beach Betty from Target and the high-waisted bottoms are in our Amazon shop!! :D #ad

Hey! I’m interested in becoming a travel planner. Any tips?
26:47 that music is LOUD 🤣😂🤣😂
Which ship do you guys prefer? Encore or Escape?
Two totally different classes that can’t really be properly compared, I’d say. Escape for a calmer time, Encore for go karts and bells and whistles.
Jay you need a more tropical hat, not just the black hat. Just like your socks 😊
The problem is having a size 8 3/4 head, ha ha… :P
0:54 💫💫💫💫💫
NCL trying to show up a Fun Ship. Lol
Something else he meant to say agriculture 😂😂😂 he sounds like sometimes jajajajajaja
Agree, in Spanish it’s agricultura (farming)

I still don’t think it is worth 160., even if you drank and drank, especially since it sounds like they watered down the drinks
HOLA😳 The bus guy was annoying 🙄 Enough to ask for a refund 🤣
Not to be too negative but I'd never pay $159 to go to a cold pool, and a non snorkel ocean beach and bad steak. Looks like you guys make the best of every adventure
In November Puerto Plata is rain, rain, rain, mud, flooded airport, worst all-inclusive we've ever been to. And dirtiest Beach.
we did that on our cruise. Worst experience ever. Bird droppings in the food, poor service, food disgusting.
i hated the escape thats crazy the glow party was in spice so small and it sucked but had fun still escape worse ship i been on layout and all breakaway and joy better and the sky
