Review summary

I loved this cruise! We can't wait to schedule another with our son and grandson. My only regret is it took me 63 years to do this! The staff was excellent! I am not use to this much attention. My favorite restaurant was the buffet at the Windjammer.

Best place for any meal! Food was very good and service was great. I loved the experience of fine dining, but more comfortable with the buffet. Windjammer was top notch!

Cabin / Stateroom

Like I said, Bruce kept our room very nice. Cleaned at least twice daily. I can't say enough about our attendant. The room was very comfortable and efficient. Only thing, I think I would like a balcony the next time!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

Nassau, Bahamas

Only got off for shops. Kind of a mistake because the vendors are like used car salesman and won't leave ya alone to shop. Straw Market was even worse!

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Rainy day that's why 4 stars, but the snorkel trip on the Fury catamaran was awesome!

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
To me, this was the best stop. We did the zip line over the bay first thing! Great ride! Then shopping before our tour. The vendors we're very polite and patient. Then we did a relaxing tour around Roatan to finish our day.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
This was an awesome port too. Ran a close second to Roatan. Did the Mayan Ruins there and they were fantastic! Our tour guide, Arturo, was very informative about the history and surrounding area. Take 2 shirts, it's very hot and humid in the jungle!
