Review summary

Lets point out from the moment we stepped on the Valor , the Valor Crew was Excellent always smiling, always saying Hello, can I help you.

The Food was to die for each night in the Washington Room.  The Lido Deck meals great meals , but I would like to have a donut , never a donut. Lots of chocolate lots of chocolate. Ship is very clean and shinny.  Rooms are clean and very welcoming and warm,  love the head of house keeping for our area.

Cozumel, was great, had a dock ,we walk up to village and hired a taxi service to take us to a beach. 30.00 each plus eats

Belize, tender service, the first time I went there we used a dock, I don't know why you have to use tenders now. We were in a party of 12 and some of  us stayed  ship because water was rough. The group that went on shore did not like how the crew handle the boats and getting on and off the ship.  Once on shore people were fighting for your business and it was not clean.  They said Belize was a waste our time that we could put on another island.

Mahogany Bay   Dock service  beautiful setting, great time there. wonderful beach, lots of  bars, eats,  stores  , the flowers so beautiful  The  water is blue green and feels so good.  The  people are loving and caring and very helpful and they will make sure you will have a great time.  If you could bypass Belize you could spend more time here.

Costa Maya, Dock Service.  small village shopping and bar and eatery , we booked a private resort for the day. started at 7:00 am   this included beach, food, and of course alcohol  , all you want. for 5 hours    Oh, this also included the taxi service too.   Beautiful

Ship tip

The crew do help the handicap , but the cruisers do not respect the handicap, I feel in there nightly news letter there should be a reminder about the handicap to the cruisers. Also to the handicap who the rent the scooters and never operated one before, take a class before your board the ship.
