Review summary

Overall, it was a great cruise. I would have liked to visit different ports, but being only a 5 night, I'm sure there aren't many options. The ship is amazing, staff is amazing, and they make every moment fun.

The shows were the best. Every night, there was a different show. It was so much fun and interactive. The shows alone made the whole cruise!

Cabin / Stateroom

The cabin is small, which I expected. But just 1 additional outlet closer to the beds would have really been nice.

We did a VIP Dolphin Excursion and it was amazing. The facility was beautiful, the staff were amazingly kind, and the food was spectacular! Just be prepared to pay quite a bit for any pictures. They don't let you take your own.

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

It's definitely the REAL Mexico. Lots of shops just on the pier.
