Review summary

Ship was great. Large so if full it did not seem that way. Many activities, plenty of kids programs for all ages, great food, very clean and everyone was helpful. Layout was easy to learn and get around.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
The beautiful water! We did the Tulum excursion, which was a large tender, and bus trip that took a total 2 hours to get there, therefore leaving us only 1:45 at the Maya temples, which was not enough. Very nice once you are there.
Don't Miss: Snorkeling or diving.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
Several areas to explore. Plenty of space. Vendor areas were OK, some very pushy. Snorkeling not that great.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Don't Miss: Climbing the Dunn's River Falls.

George Town, Grand Cayman

Glass bottom boat excursion was good, but the turtle farm tour was the best. The stop on the way to the farm at Hell was not all I thought it would be. Most americanized port we visited. Shopping was good, however we did not have alot of time after the excursion,therefore con was the hurried pace.
