Ship experiences

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We saw the welcome aboard show in September on the Sunrise…but the Valor performers took it to another level…they very entertaining. I didn’t think I would really like the rock show…well I was rocking & rolling right along w/them… Pierre had me in stitches…he’s hilarious…I should’ve charged him for my lashes as he had me crying them off… The Dj played a good variety of old school which I like, and new line dances song that was a plus…I’m Cupid shuffle and cha cha slide out 😂

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We had 2 cabins…8250 was the other. Our first time having a balcony. I didn’t think we would spend anytime out there which is why we just do interior…but we loved it!!! Both room stewards for our room and daughters were good!

Ship tip

Bring your own straws if you don’t like the edible ones(they’re flavored abs only given out for frozen drinks) take advantage of redfrog pub 1/2 days…eat breakfast at least once in dinning room, get to comedy club early if you want a good seat 💺 or seat at all(18+ shows)

Cozumel, Mexico

Mr Sanchos a must. We did all-inclusive and they didn’t fail…from the good food, drinks on deck, swim up bar, massage, and parasailing 🪂 so much fun…I will definitely go back if we visit Cozumel Krazy Lobster 🦞 was pretty cool. We had countless offers…one man said he had the really fake bags & wallets. The kids here made the cuties flowers out of tree leaves…we rented a golf cart thst was pretty cool to drive on our own…

Disembarkation

2 out of 5

The lines were long, and it took us a while to get off. That wasn’t due to them. Elevator was down, and they’re probably short staffed as everywhere is…back on land ppl just don’t wanna work…but my family and I are NEVER in a hurry to get off…
