The room size was comfortable for 4. Had 1 shower with restroom and also had an additional shower with a tub no toilet. king bed wasn’t that comfortable and the sofa bed was hard as a board. This room smelled liked diesel and for a couple of days. This room is located in the rear of the ship.

My family and I did the Hop on Hop off shuttle that took us shopping and beach for a couple of hours at the locations. Budget friendly.

George Town, Grand Cayman

No excursions were booked. This port was a short one and we decided to rent our personal taxi and took us to places of interest. Went shopping and the beach. Picked us up on time after the beach and took us to the Port in time.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
No excursions were booked, short time at Cozumel . Lack of time didn’t allow many activities to be done.

Disembarkation

Getting off the ship is never pleasant and dire.
