I've been on several cruises ranging from 7-11 nights. You don't really get comfortable with the ship, the schedule, and relaxed enough on the vacation until around day 3-4. With a 4 night cruise you're off the ship right then. It's also different being in Florida where I can just walk on the ship. You'll have a travel day on the front & back end of it. JMO, but a 3-4 day cruise isn't worth it to just go to the Bahamas or Cozumel.
