Review summary

This is a great cruise for the money. Yes it is an older ship without all the bells and whistles but the cleanliness and the crew made up for it. The crew was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. A smaller ship was better for us this time since we brought our parents and another family we were with had limited mobility issues.

We did 3 reef snorkel. Crew and boat were great. It was a little rough the day we went but reefs were gorgeous. Bubba Gumps was tons of fun! Price was great too. Saw a ton of tropical fish, sting rays, lobsters, eels & a nurse shark.

Getting off the ship was fine but customs was a disaster. They only had 2 agents to check us out. Lines barely moved. Very difficult for several of our party to stand that long, no seating along the way.
