Review summary

LOTS of kids on this cruise since it was Thanksgiving week. We didn't have any bad experiences but heard from others who did. Just keep that in mind when timing your cruise.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Shows used to be great with jugglers / hypnotists / acrobats and other specialty acts but now they focus on the stage show musicals which aren't our favorite ... and each night sounds about like the other. Comedy was very hit or miss: Gitchee Guy was great but the other two were not all that entertaining.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone on the ship was always very nice and smiling.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
This cabin is right above a common area with music that plays until after 11 each night, so it's LOUD until the performing stops.

Ship tip

Focus on the positive aspects and you will enjoy. If you want to find negatives, you can ... but why spoil your vacation by looking for the bad?!

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
We went snorkeling and it wasn't great, but was good.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
We went to a beach and parasailed, which was a lot of fun!

Belize City, Belize Did not visit port

We've been here before and enjoyed the cave tubing, but there's not a lot of other options we see. Since the cruise ship has to anchor well offshore with a long tender ride, we just stayed on the ship this day.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
It's easy to just walk around and shop / stop for a drink or quick lunch ... or I know there's lots of decent beach options here.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
VERY fast! We were back at the car and headed home within minutes!!
