Review summary

We had an amazing time. We were able to rest and have fun too.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Pier employees and Hillsborough Sheriff department had the most horrible desorganization from the parking lot to the outside of the building. Pier employees will say one thing and the Sheriff department will say the opposite. The waiting lines were not properly labeled with the correct check-in time. People that had earlier check-in times were late. It took us more than an hour from the moment we parked the car to get inside the building. Once inside it was a 1-2-3 deal and we were on the way to the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Plenty of food everywhere!! Windjammer had the same thing pretty much everyday. Grateful we were able to eat any time of the day. Nothing to eat once Windjammer was closed.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Spent most of the time on deck 11 sitting around and on the Solarium pool.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Didn’t see any show. Music on the 4th floor was great every night.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
This was my 2nd time in Cozumel. Took a taxi and went local, he took us to El Mercado. We had lunch there. Drove us around, made a few stops for pictures and history then back to port.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Beautiful island, beautiful people, super clean! We walked around and found a little bar next to a Scuba shop. Took a “tour” to the Yatch Club, once everybody got out to their own tours we changed our plan. We asked the driver to give us a tour of the local area. He drove us around, gave us a little history about the island then back to the port.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Self disembarkation was supposed to start at 7:30, by 7:15 we were walking out the ship. Very well organized.
