Review summary

I was on the Conquest during their slow season and before school began summer recess.  Ocho Rios, Georgetown and Cozumel had only 2-3 ships that day made the week pleasant.

 

Lines Guy's Burger Joint and Blue Iguana Catalina can be long at times, however it will be well worth it.  Food at the buffet is mediocre.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The Renoir and Monet Restaurant for dinner serve small portions. You can order as much as you like. Meals are beautifully presented. Guy's burger joint and Blue Iguana Cantina serving breakfast and lunch were my favorites since you can custom order your meal. Food at the dessert bar was bland. It was like it came out a box from Costco.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Nothing too special such as trivia, crafts and bingo. Karaoke in the evening

Entertainment

5 out of 5
On most nights there would be two shows. One for the early dinner (6PM) and the other for late diner (8:15) I enjoyed the newlywed show where they ask couples how well they know each other. At least one of them will reveal too much. Comedians had great material.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The wait staff in the restaurants sing and dance during dinner. I liked the idea of three waiters serving you and a reserved table every night.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
My cabin had plenty of space for my luggage. There was satellite TV airing Fort Lauderdale and Miami local channels and a few other cable channels. The mini fridge was not as cold as I like.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Taxi fare to Fort Lauderdale airport was less than $20

Watch for panhandlers. It's going to be hot and humid

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
When your at the port the hold on to your hats it will be breezy.
