Review summary

Great Cruise. Enjoyed the Western Caribbean. Loved Snorkeling in Cozumel and Roatan. Hugging Sloths in Roatan. Mayan Ruins in Belize were great, but this was probably our least favorite port. Breeze was a fun ship!

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Most food was great. Loved Guys burgers, Pig & Anchor BBQ. Seafood Market however was a large disappointment. Only complaint was The Seafood shack took over 45 minutes for an uncharge order. Seafood was very average, not what I expected.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were always busy, Thrill theater was fun for the kids. Water slides pretty good for a cruise ship. Played mini golf, ping pong, foosball, checkers and some trivia contests. Fun..

Photo Gallery

The ability to view and purchase photos on the Carnival app was great. So much better than the old way of sorting through prints!

Ship Quality

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
Arrived early. Enjoyed Kennedy Space Center very much. Highly recommend spending a day there.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Great Boat snorkeling tour with Chala-Michal. Worked really well with the kids. Got some great pictures with Stingrays, lobster, fish, coral. Great morning. Then went to San Francisco beach club for lunch and swimming. Lots of beach vendors hawking their wares. Would definitely come back to Cozumel though.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
Belize was good. Booked King David for Lamanai Mayan Ruins tour. It was 1 hour by car then 1 hour by boat each way. Highly recommend a private tour. We beat the large ship - sponsored excursion by an hour. Had extra time to explore the amazing ruins.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Used Victor Bodden for private tour. Went to Monkey experience and Sloth Hug. Highly recommend this awesome experience. Then spent several hours at Bananarama beach club. Snorkeled directly from the beach here. Beaches were busy, but this was probably our favorite port.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
Stayed in the port. Did the Aviarius (Aviary bird tour) It's basically a walk tour on suspended bridges and towers above the port. Got to hand feed many birds. Good experience. Spent the rest of the day in the port swimming pool relaxing. Port was very "Disneyish" it was clearly made to cater to tourists.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
This was probably the worst experience of the entire cruise. It was complete Chaos. We we trying to do the self debark and carry off our own luggage. Stood in line for about 90 minutes to leave. Nothing felt organized at all. Tons of people in line ignoring instructions. There has to be a better way than this.
