The staff are always friendly, making you feel at home.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is always maintained and clean. The ship provides various maps and instructions to help navigate the ship. The ship is large so the maps located throughout the ship, and the map on the app helps to locate events on the ship with ease. The elevators provide easy transportation to different decks and provide lower wait times for the volume of people on the ship. The ships design is great as it provides adequate space for all entertainment without conflict of over crowding, and there are services provided throughout the ship making it convenient. The staterooms are spacious and designed to provide comfort.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room had a balcony with an ocean view. The room was designed with spacious comfort in mind, with very comfortable beds. The room was very clean, and well maintained to look like new. The services provided by the housekeeper were amazing. The room had a daily cleaning including freshly made beds, soaps, and fresh towels daily.

Ship tip

Book shows in advance to ensure that you get a seat at times that will work best for your schedule. The various show times do make it easy to find a convenient time slot, but the show times do fill up fast. The ship only allows one booking per show, meaning you will get to see your desired show maybe just not at the time slot you would like. Book shoes in advance, makes all other activities easy to plan around.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
This port is located in a small charming beach town that offers charm of preserved architecture from years past. This town offers beautiful options for an overnight stay, I stayed at a charming Airbnb called, "The Lotus". There are local places to get delicious meals, a lot of shopping options, and charming beach. The port is easy to navigate and has very friendly staff.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

The port is a charming place and I love the local markets to shop.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
This port is beautiful, but it's hard to find the exit to go out locally. The workers in the port are not helpful as they encourage you to shop stores in the port or use excursion services provided by the ship. I use a local company, "The Native Choice", offers several options with guarantee to get you back for port call before the ship leaves.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
The port is beautiful with a lot of shopping options. The local taxi service is difficult and rude. The best shopping is downtown.

Disembarkation
