Review summary

This was my first cruise experience and I absolutely loved it. I felt like I had to get back to work to relax from all the activity. Lol. I would definitely recommend a cruise to someone looking for a way to vacation that is suited for the entire family.

There was a section dedicated to kids as well! Great staff and they do lots of fun and educational activities. My little girl (3 years old) talked about it the entire time. Lol

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We loved having a balcony stateroom! It was great to be able to sit out there during day or night and just watch and listen to the sea. Very relaxing

Cozumel, Mexico

This is a beautiful place! Once you get through all the people selling their items (a lot which were very nice things at good prices), the city is clean and easy to navigate. We went to Paradise Beach. It was great! All inclusive, white sandy beach with reclining chairs and umbrellas, and all the food and drink you could handle

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5

I personally loved this port! This felt a lot like we were actually IN Mexico. We did another all inclusive excursion and couldn’t be happier with the service. Our personal guides name was Carlos aka Charlie. Extremely informative, and we didn’t wait on a thing! He definitely earned the sizable tip that I left. Well worth every penny
