Review summary

Overall it was great, first time in Cozumel and Miami! 2nd time and CoCo Cay and I will say I enjoyed CoCo Cay more those time. First time I was there it was a bit to cold to swim and I wasn’t sure if the different areas. Once you learn how to navigate CoCo Cay and find a spot you like then it is much better.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth, no issues at what so ever the whole trip!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining was good, definitely have to acquire the taste for a few things but that’s the point of a vacation to me, trying new things and ways of cooking. Even if it doesn’t taste like how you’d make it!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Solarium is always my favorite place to relax, swim, or read a book.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Good shows, funny and interactive ship crew members even at dinners. Comedy was also a great show and the piano player that sang and played almost every night by the floor 4 bar was great.

Cabin was great size for 2 people and was very clean, our amazing and friendly room attendant was always close by!

Ship tip

Going to the front of the boat early morning for a sunrise or evening for a sunset while at sea is highly recommended,
