Review summary

A 5 night cruise down to Mexico, first time back since the pandemic. Very relaxing and the crew were fantastic. Would not let me review ports, but highly recommend Maya Chan beach club in Costa Maya.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Walked straight on without any waiting at all.

Ship experiences

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The production of Grease was excellent, well worth going to. We also enjoyed the pianist in the Schooner Bar as well, despite a few people talking overly loudly at the bar, oblivious to the fact they were disturbing the show.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Everyone was really happy to have passengers back on board. We were all very spoiled.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Staff were always cleaning, tables were socially distanced and hand sanitizer stations were readily available.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Spacious with a great view over the helipad and the front of the ship, but we always seemed to find ourselves at the wrong end of the ship when we wanted to eat or see a show!
