Review summary

Due to Covid, we had to rebook this cruise 5 times! We finally got to go on our Honeymoon one week after our 3 year wedding anniversary. This was my wife's first cruise. Before we got off the ship, we were discussing our next cruise! Can't wait!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
My first and last cruise was over 15 years ago and I was still dreading sitting and waiting for everyone to get on and do the safety check. Being able to check in and do it at our muster station was such a relief. What an improvement!!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I can't believe I was craving Guy's burgers. Only place I ate at multiple times! However, as a tequila fan, the Blue Iguana was my bar. Setiawan was awesome! Gede, Latcheczar and Setiawan always took care of us and had us laughing. Jazmina in the Golden dining room never missed a beat and made sure we felt like we were in a high end restaurant.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Loved the pool and hot tub, especially with the dive in movies! We tried mini golf but it was way too windy.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the comedy show. Bingo was a blast. The award goes to Marky Mark and DJ Jay for the poolside contests.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Pedro took great care of our room. He introduced himself and never forgot our names and always addressed us when we saw each other in the hall. Again, big thanks to Jazmina in the Golden Dining room and Setiawan Ava the guys at the Blue Iguana Bar.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean. No issues.

Cabin / Stateroom

I only want that room on future cruises.

Ship tip

Even though it's says Guy Fieri, don't pass up those burgers.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
We did the Tacos, Tequila Tasting and Mariachi. A bartender on the ship warned us that we would be drinking a lot of tequila. The tasting was of 5 tequilas and maybe a grand total of 2 full shots...maybe. The mariachi band and dancers we're fabulous and made that the real experience. Then we were left for way too long for shopping.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
Our visit to the ruins exceeded my expectations. The guides prepped us to get water when we could and the bus was comfortable for the long ride.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
No excursion here. But we enjoyed a quick shop and sampled far more tequila than we did in Cozumel!!!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
I was in an Uber at 8:03am! The fact that I could just walk off with my bags was great. Just wish that more than one elevator was working.

Congrats on your anniversary. My husband and I have the same cabin booked in October to celebrate our 25 year anniversary. It will be our first time in an aft room, and the balcony looks amazing. We are also huge fans of Guy’s Burgers!

I kick myself in the butt for not buying any of the tequila in Progresso. They were serving our 16 and 17 year olds before we knew it! We didn't have anything to drink while there until we headed back to the ship. The last shop before the port was giving free samples. Lots of free samples! We even snuck some extras when she wasn't looking. Everyone was buzzed (except for the 12yr old) while getting back on!
