Review summary

If you know you're going to get a little less for your money, then the cruise will be okay as it was clean (although aged), beds comfortable, rooms small and getting around was a bit difficult due to layout and having to detour from floor to floor to get to certain areas. Shops small compared to larger and newer ships.

Ports of call

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

1 out of 5
Water dirty, nothing there and the locals hounded you too death to buy things, even while in restaurant trying to relax and enjoy lunch.
Don't Miss: The birds flying around

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Part of our family went deep sea fishing and others went to private resort beach that we booked independently before leaving home. Much better value and not surrounded by all the cruise crowds.
