Review summary

Overall is a great cruise to get away and relax for a long weekend. Always enjoy Mr Sanchos in Cozumel for a pleasant beach experience. Even though Breeze is an older ship, it is very well maintained and you see cleaning taking place regularly in public areas. I prefer the smaller ships as they are easier to navigate and seem less crowded.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Fast checkin and to the ship in less than 15 minutes

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Service was great in the MDR, however it seems the food fell short of my expectations with lack of seasoning and flavor along with one entree being served barely warm. The Sea Day brunch was acceptable, but again lacking in seasoning and flavor

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

All activities attended were clean and well taken care of. Only exception is after we saw the very clouding water in the rear spas, we decided not to go into any of the aquatic areas. Definitely needed a good cleaning

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Enjoyed the variety of musical entertainment except the country duo fell very short of sounding good and was painful on the ears. Even the crew at bars lifted eyebrows when questioned.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our cabin steward was one of the best I've had. Took care of all our needs in efficient and courteous manner. Servers in MDR were great even if the food did fall short of expectations

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

For the age of the ship Breeze is well maintained and clean with the exception of the pool areas.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Clean and well maintained room. Typical size for cruising with plenty of storage
