Review summary

THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY IS, IF MY SON IS OLD ENOUGH TO DO TEEN CLUB AND MOVE AROUND THE SHIP FREELY CHECKING HIMSELF IN AND OUT, WHY CAN'T HE BE OLD ENOUGH FOR THE TWO OF US TO COMMUNICATE USING THE CRUISE APP. I HAD TO BUY UNLIMITED INTERNET FOR TWO DEVICES SO THAT I COULD USE SOCIAL MEDIA TO COMMUNICATE WITH HIM, THAT WAS AN ADDITIONAL $350 I WASN'T PLANNING ON SPENDING. I HAD PLANNED TO DO DINNER PACKAGES WITH THAT INSTEAD BUT HAD TO CHANGE PLANS DUE TO UNEXPECTED COST.

I DIDN'T DO EXCURSIONS, I WANTED TO JUST STAY ON THE BOAT AND ENJOY ALL IT HAD TO OFFER.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras Did not visit port

THE CRUISE WAS OUR DESTINATION

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico Did not visit port

WE JUST GOT BACK FROM MEXICO A FEW MONTHS AGO, OUR CRUISE BOAT WAS OUR DESTINATION.

Cozumel, Mexico Did not visit port

I think it would be a lot cheaper to pay for the “chat” option in the app. They should have suggested that to you.

Wait. On Navigator you didn't need to buy wifi. You could just text on the app messenger. That's what I used with my 17 year old.
