Cabin / Stateroom

Cabin bath was way to small for anyone over six feet tall. There was no way to use the toilet comfortably. Seriously...very , very uncomfortable.

Ship tip

Use the common bathrooms, they are large enough.

Could not get into port because of bad weather. Had to go to Coasta Maya. Which is where I went last year. Didn't really want to do a repeat cruise but it ended up that way because of bad weather.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Did not receive any information about disembarkation. Sought out the info on a bulletin board and saw that I could leave between 7:15 and 9:00 because I was leaving with ALL my luggage. On disembarkation day, announcements came over the loud speaker that I needed to leave as soon as possible at 7:30 so I would not impede the color coded luggage people. I left at 8:30 and there was no problem.

Appreciate your feedback. Bathrooms on cruise ships are notoriously small. Ports are never guaranteed and this winter season has been pretty rough. I hope you keep cruising.
