It was a very nice cruise on an older smaller ship. The internet was poor, the satellite TV connection was also poor. While the dining room food and staff were great, there was NO indication we were in Mexico. There were NO Mexican food offerings or Mexican (Latin) items to purchase on-board. The staff did a great job. The corporate office forgot to provide a theme of the route.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Overall the food was well above average and the service even better. The only exception is that there were no offerings from Mexico. The food and drink selections were the same in the Caribbean.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Primarily oriented to the under 35 age group. There was a constant and big push to sell artwork. For those over 50, the activities were blah.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Entertainment offerings were top notch and among the best we've experienced.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone was positive, smiled a lot and provided great service. They seemed to really enjoy their jobs. The dining room staff were outstanding.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
While layout was good, this ship is 23 years old and a smaller ship. So offerings like shopping were VERY limited and very poor offerings. Not even any chocolate. The ship's maintenance was done without any thought about the passengers. The painting and re-varnishing of handrails was done during all hours of the day/evening and with little or no signage. We walked the deck one evening only to get half-way around the ship to find the rest of the way was closed without any warning.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
It was clean and comfortable. It satisfied our needs.
Ship tip
It is a good, safe ship. The internet is poor and don't expect anything to indicate what country you are visiting.
We took a very nice tour to an all-inclusive resort and had a great time. However, we had a very limited amount of time to shop. And the shopping was very limited and controlled.
I was so disappointed by the TV channels offered. All the movies you had to pay for whereas on princess they have the newest movies shows and music all for free on their TVs
