Review summary

I think drink packages should be included in the cost of the rooms, what a pain to have to buy everything separate. And just when you think you have spent all the money you need to for the trip, entertainment cost more, internet cost more, it seemed like every where you turned it was more money.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Very long lines - bring patience

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Seating was comfortable, food is all very buffet tasting. I wish they would treat the dinning more like a restaurant, drink order and them food order. Took to long to get drink.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

To many activities that should have been free cost money.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Low budget but entertaining

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

If the staff thought a tip would be given - you got great service

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Elevators were extremely slow

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Was disappointed that they wouldn't give me a coffee maker in my room. I had a balcony room, they said I had to have a suite or better to have a coffee maker.

Ship tip

Go go with the waves to Mexico so the ride was smooth, you go against the waves back NOT so smooth.

Thumbs up

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

Disembarkation

The Porter's / baggage staff was very pushy
