Review summary

I loved everything about the cruise. However the one thing I could not appreciate was the excursion to Roatan, Honduras. The excursion in and of itself was great as were the tour guides (Jorge and unfortunately I do not remember the boat guides name). Very informative and caring guides. What I didn't appreciate was the walk through the streets (which was unsettling for me personally especially in a foreign country) to get to the van that was parked in a parking lot some distance from the pier. We were harassed by others trying to find out where we were going while walking to our pick up point. I would have felt safer if the tour company (RT&T) had picked us up in the piers parking lot.

Comedian was great! Magician not so much. 70's show was good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Staff are wonderful! Waiters in the O'Sheehans restaurant were very attentive...I have an egg allergy and they went beyond the call of duty to make sure I didn't eat anything that contained eggs. Clean rooms and great services all around!

Ship Quality

Very clean! Sanitizing dispensers everywhere to assist with protecting their guests from covid-19. Bathrooms were exceptionally clean.
