Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was very good. The dining rooms and specialty restaurants had outstanding service, great food and no waiting longer than 10 minutes to be seated on "My Time Dining"

JavaBlue Cafe

5 out of 5

The coffee was amazing! The crew always made my mornings! We had coffee every day here and wish I could recreate the coffee at home! I got very spoiled with this on a daily basis!

Guy's Burger Joint

5 out of 5

5 out of 5

This was my absolute favorite place to be! The area was amazing, staff was family, drinks were great, wait staff were super friendly, and Angel at the towel area was my favorite!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We saw some really amazing shows! the performers were engaging the crowd into the shows. The comedy shows were great!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The entire crew made us feel like family! They were very welcoming, engaging in conversations, but what always blows my mind is how they always remember your name! We had over 6,100 passengers on our cruise, they still remembered our names.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Even though the ship is the largest I've ever been on, it was always clean!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We splurged and reserved an Excel Suite. It was the best decision as the 4 of us never had to worry about being in others way. The bathroom was very spacious. The beds are always so comfortable and I sleep so well!

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We didn't do any excursions at this port, but we spent several hours walking around and shopping. The people at this port were very friendly!

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

2 out of 5
We did not do an excursion at this port. The area was very crowded. The people at this port were very pushy and didn't want to take "no thank you" very easily. We only stayed off the ship for about 45 minutes and then went back to the ship to hang out at the pool.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
We didn't do any excursions at this port, but it was my favorite port of all the ports we stopped at. The area is very beautiful! There was so much to do, walk to the beach, enjoyed the pathway to and from. Lots of photo opportunities along the way. The shops were a little crowded, but the people working there allowed you to freely roam without being in your face. I would walk around this port any time, but I will do the snorkeling excursion next time as other passengers said it was the best reefs they've ever seen!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Because we had priority disembarking, we were able to leave very quickly. From the time we left the room until we were outside waiting on the Uber, it took approximately 25-30 minutes.
