Review summary

Our cruise was okay I mean the islands and the ocean we great, but you can sure tell the cruise lines own each port, 

Cozumel was good there is a lot of shopping ,

Honduras is really pretty and we rented a taxi on our own and Miss Sonia took us from one end of the island to he other 

Belize was good also they have added more shopping from what we were told.

Costa Maya is beautiful it is kind of a smaller area but it is newer and we think they will add more later on,they have a pool area with sand in the shopping area, and the dolphin swim area is right there also, 

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
the food was good just aggravated the in the all inclusive restaurant they had things on the menu that were an extra charge, and they needed a better variety of choices.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The very best act was the couple that did the Ariel act, the other shows were okay

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
It was okay just seemed like everyone didn't really want to engage with folks to much, but they need to remember that is part of the job and if we are not on the boat then they won't have jobs

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
They need to be wiping things down more as we seen no one doing this and 3 out of the 4 of us ended up sick, with that many people you need to wipe down handrails doorknobs etc. the boat layout was okay

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
It was okay but just small, the bathroom was good size, but we are going to get a balcony room on our next cruise

Ship tip

If you can get a balcony room they just have more space, and we would hope that maybe they would warm up the pool

If going to Costa Maya you can go right behind the shopping area and get a bus. Then go about 2-3 miles to a wonderful beach area with beach bars/snacks all along there. If you use the snack shacks you can use the beach chairs. We love it there.
