Review summary

This was my first cruise and i had an amazing time. The crew was great and very friendly. I loved the director. Schwartz was very energetic and fun. The room wad the perfect size and the ports were beautiful with great excursions. This left a great impression and already planning my next cruise, i hope will be just as fun as this one was

Fast, i went through goportcanaveral for my stay the night before. From the moment i stepped off the shuttle to the moment i walked onto the ship was maybe 10 minutes if that.

It was all great, tho i mostly enjoyed the shows especially carnival quest for adults. It was really fun and Schwartz, the director, had so much energy and so much fun.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Leslie the head waitress in lower Sapphire dining was great, she always made sure i had a window seat. I can't remember his name but our steward was great also. Every morning after breakfast i came to my room and he tidied up and left a towel animal on the beds

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The entire ship was nice and clean. I always saw something be wiped down and cleaned. I didn't like having to go through the casino to get to some places though due to the smell of smoke.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I was in cabin 1252, an oceanview cabin and it was really nice. The extra shower was a great added benefit.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

I went directly onto the ship once dropped off

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
I visited Mr. Sanchos and had the best time there. The drinks were good and food was alright. It was gray to be able to stay in the ocean and drink. We were brought drinks one right after the next. I was able to snorkel there.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
I went cave tubing and zip lining through cavetubing.com. My guide Big John was very informative. It was my birthday that day and before the walk to the cave, he got me a coconut with rum for the hike. It was delicious, i had never had a fresh coconut before. The flesh was like jello. During the hike to the river John pointed out trees and plants and their uses. The cave tubing was peaceful as we were the only ship at port that day. the zip lining was fun. Then before he took us back to the port we had lunch, Belize style tamales...omg that were delicious.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
I went to another beach right off the port. Took the magic flying stairs and sat at the beach. I went snorkeling here also.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
I originally had a beach excursion but the night previous there were a lot of winds and seaweed was on the beach and was advised to choose another excursion. I decided on the atv excursion with the beach afterwards to allow time for cleanup. It was my first time riding an ATV, that was probably the most fun I had. It was their dry season, so not many puddles to drive through. I will be sure to go back during the wet season. They were still cleaning when we got to the beach but it was still cool, i didn't like all the people coming up, one woke me up asking if i was interested in buying anything. That was the only downside.

Disembarkation

Disembarking was just as fast as the embarking

The casino is usually smokey but the Breeze has a wrap around deck 5. This means you can actually go out and walk outside instead of going through the casino. It is inconvenient but worth it at night when it gets really smokey.
