Review summary
Overall the cruise was great just a little far for me to drive to Port Canaveral to get on a boat the ship was big hard to get around specially if you’re on a scooter or a walker because some people will not let you buy to get on the elevators are they just stand in the way where you can’t go around them they only think about their selves but there are some people that was really really helpful as noticed that the younger kids were very nice I’ve had it had a couple of kids come up to Sammy and say ma’am do you need me to hold the door ma’am do you need help you don’t say that in kids today not all of them so that tells me their mama and their daddy has raised them right and I commend you on thatEmbarkation
Wonderful easy to get on the ship but lawd to get in elevator with 2 people 1 with walker and 1 on a scooter was terrible people when cut you to try to get when you been there 10 or minutes they didn’t care I do have to say that ran into some very nice young children that would hold the door for to get in and thank you for that with y’all being good you had a lot of people that would not help you at all.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
We were on Carnival Mardi Gras just got off today we ate in the Flamingo Restaurant at table 221 the servers were fantastic Pande,Dedik, and Jullus and the Matri D Elvir was the best that I have had in a long if it wasn’t for the whole staff we would not have ate every night
Onboard Activities
Went to the casino loved it
Entertainment
Did not really liked the shows I went to 2 of them I like when there are dancing singing and changing costumes not all the special effects
Service and Staff
Excellent everyone acted like they enjoyed doing there job Flamingo Restaurant waiters Pande Dedik Julius were the Best waiters we have ever had The maître d’ Elvir The matre-D made us fill at home just as well as we were eating food in a restaurant I would go back on that boat as long as those four were there my room steward that are you spell INYOMAN iPhone 9320 he was great he made me different animals every day I kept them to the end of the week then he said he was going to have to take them I really really enjoyed this trip with my family and my friends I have my two daughters three of my grand children their two husbands and an ex son-in-law there was 10 of us all together and they all made us feel like family hope to see this crew again on another ship
Ship Quality
I really didn’t like the ships layout it was too big and some areas the elevators were not large enough I the rooms were OK I had a handicap room which was awesome and I got around a really good in there but as far as trying to maneuver around the peoples just standing in the way they just stop in the middle of the floor and start talking and you had to go Bebe so they’ll get out of your way but overall the ship is beautiful just a very large ship hard to find things food was good and my kids and my grandkids enjoyed it
Cabin / Stateroom
The stored and our room was awesome he is was he is and was the best room stored I’ve had he saved all the animals for me and I said I’m over there on the table so I can look at them every day and each time you made me a new one for the bed I put it over there but he did not pick them up until the day we were getting off they need to be more stewards like him and his name is INYOMAN his telephone number he’s got gave me a card state room attendant telephone 32422
Ports of call
Love Costa Maya it was a lot to see didn’t really do a lot in Costa Maya but had a good time with family and our grand children so it was good to just be together

You definitely have to take a tour of the animals where you can go to see parrots birds butterflies monkeys just come at you the first thing came over and jumped on my head scared me to death but it was little and I was scared it finally got all Sammy did it jump to my granddaughter and they just had a ball with it my granddaughter must daughter month to son-in-law‘s and the lady that was with me I would definitely do this excursion again we went to the gym chocolate factory went to the rum factory took a tour of town and Jerry are tour guide was fantastic so if you ever go there and want to do this thing to the Myon jungle make sure to ask for Jerry he is awesome it cost about $58 a person but it is well worth the money
Port Canaveral is one of my favorite ports it’s just so far to drive from South Carolina when you’re an older person I would go back and if I had somebody to drive you driving that seven hours is rough for me we did do some excursions not in Port but once we got on the boat we did some excursions normally I don’t get off the boat Annie but I did get off the boat this time and loved it
I love Cozumel there was a lot of things to do in there but the only thing I did was go shopping for some reason I didn’t shop for anybody else just myself
Disembarkation
Getting off the boat was a disaster you had to I was using a scooter my friend was using a walker we got away from my other kit my kids and my grandchildren because they were had to go through cause they didn’t have passports so we had to wait them had a hard time finding our luggage after we got the luggage we deported snatched up the luggage and went outside we were still missing one piece of luggage my daughter did find my grandson‘s luggage we went over to where we was supposed to meet the shuttle bus to go back to the motel to pick up my car had the same shuttle bus driver take us and come pick us up great great guy would like to see do all of us
