The fantasy is a smaller ship design which has some quirks that are not as good as some other ships but really enjoyed our stay and it was very clean

This was the 1st time i had stayed in an interior room and i was pleasantly surprised plenty of room for the 2 of us and all our things which was very clean.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5

Really surprised at Progreso it is obviously going through some improvements around the beach front area, we had very reasonably priced massages on the beach followed by some drinks at a local tavern
