Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward was really quick to clean our room and he was very friendly. One photographer was hilarious, he had us in tears we were laughing so hard. And Mikey the cruise director was great. Always kept everyone up to speed with what was happening on the ship and was always part of the entertainment. Very high energy.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5

Unless you do an excursion there's not much to do here. We tried to go to the beach but ended up having to buy an all inclusive beach day. $40 each but definitely worth it. All the drinks you want, chairs, hammocks, kayaks, paddle boarding, ride to and from the beach.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5

We had a really good time on the Catamaran, snorkeling and deluxe beach day. The staff on the catamaran were friendly, served all inclusive drinks, snorkeling was really cool and the beach inflatables were so much fun. The beach also was all inclusive. Really good value for the money.

Disembarkation

We decided to carry off our own luggage. We were the first group called off and managed to get off the ship and get to our car by 930.
