Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The Steak House food and staff was amazing. The deck 5 Plaza Cafe staff and goods were always perfect. My Husband and I were disappointed at the quality and taste of food on the Lido deck buffets. It was average at best.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pool, putt, putt, Piano bar, we loved listening to the Cats Trio, the Love and Marriage show and the Wave Pool movies were so wonderful. MarQ was the best Cruise Director. There should be lounge chairs that are taller for people with disablities.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Love the Love and Marriage show, the Piano Bar and the Wave pool.

Children's Programs

We did not bring our children on the cruise.

Ship tip

I would say to always give your self time to get to the place you need to go due to the time it takes to get the elevators and the amount of people on board.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

3 out of 5
I liked this but, I did not like the fact I was shuffled through there so quickly and that the there was no planned transport for people with disabilities to go from the ship to the port and back. This made things very difficult.

Belize City, Belize

3 out of 5
Again, there was no planned transport for people with disabilities and medical conditions to go from the ship to the port and back. This made things very difficult. I did love the Calipso Train.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
Again, there was no planned transport for people with disabilities and medical conditions to go from the ship to the port and back. This made things very difficult. The beach break and shopping experiences was rushed and the beach was horrid .

There are plenty of pedicabs available on the Puerta Maya pier in Cozumel that will take you from the ship to the shops for a five dollar tip. We use them all the time
