Cabin / Stateroom

Was clean and comfortable. Located just across from laundry and a few doors from elevators and stairs to Lido food. We liked the location but some people might not have liked it. Had some noise from Lido deck but not annoying.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

Main dock area was good shopping. Did fall inclusive beach at Chakanaab. W only had about 4 hours there. I would not recommend all-inclusive as you don't have time to do all and we were rushed to eat. Only one bar available for all-inclusive and that was a long way from beach.

Nice shopping at do k, good prices and fair seletion. Did tour to Uxmal and it was enjoyable. STop at hacienda was interesting, but not much food.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5

Unfortunately, we had fog and this made us late into port. That affected the diembarcation and Carnival staff didn't quite figure out how to handle too many people on decks and delayed off flow. Waited a long time in public areas and no bathroom available. Also no place for sitting which was hard on two elderly ladies.
