Review summary

We did have a great time despite the room (but that was taken care of). Ship did rock a lot due to ocean.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Faster to Fun is the only way we go. From the time we walked in to getting on Fantasy was about 15 minutes.

Ship Quality

Older ship but well maintained

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Started out in U150 and was switched because of the air not working properly. The front desk asked if we wanted to change rooms without us asking and compensated us a steak house supper with a round of drinks for our troubles.

Ship tip

Book an excursion in Costa Maya and Cozumel unless you want to be hounded by shop keepers in port. Wish we had just stayed on ship.

We didn't do Faster to the Fun but embarkation was a breeze. Didn't have to wait, but we had an early arrival time also. We were on the ship by 11:30. Ports were good, we took a taxi to Crazy Lobster and had the best fish tacos! Purchased a huge conch shell and jewelry. Cozumel we went to Mr Sanchos. Vacation is what you make of it unless there's a disaster of some sort.
