Review summary

Nice for our first cruise. Fit my expectations...which were to have a relaxing time and get lots of sun and family time. Entertainment options on the ship were not the best. The best entertainment they had was the comedy. Food was good. Ship was always very clean. We were amazed that everytime we came back to our room the steward had tided up from our last visit.

Ambiance was that of a free buffet. ;-)

Entertainment

Boring Las Vegas style shows! And some options just did not schedule out well with eating and other entertainment...and we missed a couple of things we would have like to have seen.

Layout was nice. Decor was a bit dated. TV was tube type. Would have liked more audio options on the cable system.

Ports of call

Belize City, Belize

It was surprising to find a very nice textiles shop right at the port which had some very original styles. It was nice not to see yet another shop selling the same cliche stuff.

Cozumel, Mexico

Had a great time seeing the whole Island. The East Side was gorgeous.
Don't Miss: Rent a scooter and get out and about on your own.

George Town, Grand Cayman

We took a cab to Seven Mile beach... great time!
Don't Miss: Eating jerk chicken at the bearch.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Mahogony Bay was very nice..albeit so manicured and like "Disney". The only thing that was disappointing was that since the beach was private there were no locals there to compete with the cruise line's overinflated prices on food, drink, and gifts.
Don't Miss: Just walk out of the boat down to the beach!

Pros: Good staff

Cons: Entertainment

Recommends Carnival Legend? Yes!
