Review summary

Mother Nature didn't always cooperate, but we would do it again in a heartbeat. Some of our original excursions that we planned on were canceled due to COVID restrictions so we need to go back someday!!

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Very clean, however when we visited it was a holiday so a lot wasn't open and there was a lot of construction due to past hurricanes. We went on the Blue Lagoon excursion...the weather did not cooperate and we ended up heading back to the ship early and getting a partial refund.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Went to the San Gervasio ruins.....our tour guide was very knowledgable and the restaurant we stopped at for lunch was fantastic!

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
We went to Fort Bacular and 7 Colors Lagoon.....the tour bus company was very nice, I wished we could have gone in the fort, but it wasn't open and could only see it from the outside. The 7 Colors Lagoon was beautiful and the lunch after was delicious....remember not to drink the water or have a drink made with ice.....we were sick the next day with diarrhea.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
My husband ended up testing positive for COVID on the last day of the cruise. Celebrity made sure we were well taken care of, quarantined and made arrangements for us to get home safely.
