We had a wonderful cruise. I would recommend the following: orange juice dispensers well displayed for breakfast; improve the hot dog quality ( cheeseburger was delicious); include a highly regarded fish as chefs choice.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Surya was an amazing waiter at our dining. Renee was a wonderful housekeeper for our room. The bartenders were great but there was a difference by location. Sports bar was excellent. Sometimes younger guests were preferred over older guests at pool bars.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The layout was exceptional. The elevator in the back of the ship requires some additional directions for passengers if they choose to go to an adjoining floor.

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

2 out of 5
This was a wonderful day. I don’t think you need to suggest to cruisers that they should secure umbrellas early as there was plenty of time. Also the beach bar service on the island was subpar as I waited twenty minutes and decided to leave. Suggestion..more bartenders on the private island.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
The ruins were fantastic. This was a wonderful experience.

Cozumel, Mexico

Wonderful port. Did a tequila tour and went downtown for shopping and entertainment. Highly recommend.

Disembarkation

The disembarkation was excellent. We were held up for a ‘left something in your room’ reason but that was eventually cleared.
