Review summary

The food and shows were exceptional. Ports of call were relaxing with a variety of activities for all age groups and interests. The stateroom looked a little over used and could stand a makeover. Service was exceptional but main bars around the ship could have used more bartenders. The wait time for a drink was up to 10 mins and overcrowded. The ship is full of various activities and things to do. I could have stayed a few more days to do everything.

Mayan Chan all-inclusive beach was awesome and our favorite part of the cruise. The staff was friendly, English speaking but authentic to the culture in Mexico.

Cozumel, Mexico

Taxi driver charged us more than the published amount at the port to return to the ship. It was $11 to ride to The Money Bar but $15 to get back.
