Review summary

A quick getaway for a few days. Because of the short cruise length and time of year, the passenger mix was very diverse. Many young couples and families to the more seasoned cruiser.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
MDR was very good with ample quantity and variety. Enjoyed the huevos rancheros at the Blue Iguana and salad bar on the lido deck.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Spent most of our time reading and relaxing in the Serenity (adults only) area.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Good house band but not very many seats to sit and watch. Only one playlist production...Epic Rock which never disappoints.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
From our room steward to our dining room staff and everyone else we came in contact with was the best service we've ever had. Everyone was helpful and couldn't do enough to make sure you were satisfied. Why would anyone take their tips away from these hard working crew members?

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
She's an older ship and the cabins are small but we knew that going in. Crew was constantly cleaning.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Room was on the small side but really how much time do you spend inside the cabin?

Ship tip

With two dining rooms seperated by the galley, deck 8 does not go through. Either up to 9 or down to 7.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy. Wish Port of Tampa would get facial recognition like Port Canaveral when clearing customs.
