Review summary

The food was fairly good at the Garden Cafe.  it was  better at The Tropicana, Savor and (Taste?).  However, the menus share too many of the same items.  Add more variety to the menus. The water slides and climbing on the rope course were 2 welcome additions to the hot tubs. On Harvest Caye, the music volume was so loud, I wouldn't use the pool.  Install more speakers around the area, and turn down the volume. The shop salesmen at the Costa Maya pier are pretty aggressive, which makes it a place to avoid for me.

Plan on being the last on the ship then you will not be disappointed. Choose the last boarding time.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Our boys enjoyed the dive they were on but there is a lot of poverty to see. Depressing for a vacation.

Harvest Caye, Belize

excursion was advertised as 3 1/2 hrs giving us a few hours on the private island but was up to 5+ hrs which allowed us NO Time on the island!

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

boat ride over was to long and the waves were bad! We spent all of our time trying to get to the ruins either on a boat or bus!

We loved the food at the Garden Cafe, also. Actually, better than the MDRs! And we LOVED O'Sheehan's! We ate lunch there every day! We are going to cruise the Getaway again next January with family, and I can't wait to see my grandchildren enjoy all that this ship has to offer!
