Review summary

Everyone had fun, none of us had been to Jamaica, Grand Cayman or Cozumel before and they did not disappoint. We were very glad that we set aside one excursion day to just chill on the beach and enjoy it, instead of running around in a bus all day. Water was great, snorkeling was a blast. It is of course hot and sticky this time of year so water related excursions worked great. Booked excursions from Cruise 41, Resort for a Day and Carnival. All were nice, but the Carnival had the longest line and the most time spent waiting and not seeing things.

Bigger than average, clean. It was at the back of the boat and just above some sort of work space. Lots of movement and noise at the back of the boat, you could hear any change in the Azipods, etc. Hard for me to sleep, might be good for some, but not for me. Bed seems to be getting old

Ship tip

Blue Iguana tacos poolside for a great lunch, Guy's Burgers were also good. Stayed up for the late night beach party on the lido and all seemed to have a great time

We called carnival and told them we wanted to get transfers from the airport and they bring you back to airport. We got off plan and went to bathroom and they called my phone and asked where we were to make sure we were there. We always have them book our cruise and add all tipping, insurance port taxed and fees.
