Review summary

Short 7 day cruise. Short times on land at each stop. Our tender to Belize left an hour late, which also cut our time even shorter. Lots to do onboard. Attentive waiters, and other staff.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embarkation is never easy. Lots of people and long lines. People were friendly and patient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room was good. Attentive and friendly waiters. Decent dinners. Buffet was always crazy busy, but staff stayed calm and helpful. Good variety of food. Granddaughter loved Sprinkles, the soft ice cream on pool deck.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Fitness center was terrific. Lots to choose from and great view from the the front of the ship. Flow-rider pool, water tubes, rock-climbing, and spas were enjoyed by several in our group. Pools were small and crowded. Vitality Spa was good with good therapists.

Get there early to embark.

Ports of call

Belize City, Belize

3 out of 5
We went on the snorkeling and private island excursion. Snorkeling was fantastic. Shallow and clear water with a great variety of coral and fish. The island was pretty. Time was too short to enjoy being on it though.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
We did the snorkeling and time at El Cid resort. The snorkeling was ok. Glass bottom boat was not as advertised, nor was the beach access at the resort.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Speedy. Landed early and got off fine.
