Review summary

Had a pleasant week.  Not quite as "nice" (staff, food, special touches) as the Holland America trips we've taken but good "middle of the road" cruise line.  The shore excursions were good - especially the Cenote snorkeling in Cozumel.  The biggest negative:  We were 6.5 hours late getting into port at the end of the trip.  Apparently this is not an uncommon issue for the Houston port but it would have been nice to have had a head's up about it in order to make plans.

Just had better service and amenities on the Holland America trips. Was kind of disappointed. Lack of outlets was a problem.

Definitely do the Cenote snorkeling and ask that Pepe be your guide!

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Gumbalimba was fun. Skip the beach afterward (i.e. purchase the less expensive excursion).

Belize City, Belize
