Review summary

Food was good.  Wish the hot tub just below our cabin would have had the heater working as it would have been close for us to use.  Didn't work the whole cruise. Wish there were more options for diabetics.  Seating in the dining areas was terrible.  Why every seating area had it where if you sat on anything but the independent chairs you ate with your chin on the table.  Why is the seating so low?  My husband is over 6 ft and still almost had his chin on the tables. Joel our cabin steward was awesome.  Excursion on Grand Cayman was spectacular.  The underwater submarine was well worth the money.  The zip line in Jamaica was misrepresented.  It is an intense hike so be prepared.  The ride back to our starting point on the transport vehicle was beyond terrible.  There was no reason to drive as fast as he did with the potholes in the road.  We were flying off the seats and being thrown around.  The underwater excursion in Cozumel was a joke.  Nothing like the brochure and definitely not worth the money.  Mostly it was just having pictures taken with statues and dancing around.

First time having a balcony and enjoyed it but will not have one on that floor again as it is too near deck activity and noisy. It was kept very clean. Joel was awesome!
