Review summary

I will never depart from the mobile port again. I will never take the fantasy again. There were 4 delays on the trip. 1 weather related, 1 health emergency, 1 "technical problem" which caused the boat to go a max of 13 knots, and 1 delay due to missing passengers when leaving Mexico. The Fantasy is an old ship and broke while we were on it. It rocked horribly. I've been a dozen cruises and have never experienced rocking like that before. People were falling and leaving throw up bags everywhere. They tried to make up for all the inconveniences by giving free drinks on the last day but it did not make up for it. People were drunk and had to pack that night. We heard lots of complaining the whole trip.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Inefficient use of space in cabin. If the bed was in a different spot it would make so much more sense when people share a cabin.

Dirty and polluted. Gulf waters. Go to the beach in Alabama or Florida and it's prettier.
