Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The food was very good. We would not recommend the upgrade dining package. We didn't realize there were limitations of what we could order. For example, the appetizers are very small. We would have liked to have been able to try an additional one. We would recommend staying with the main dining rooms next time.

The long drive to West Bay (45 minutes) was torture. Very poor road conditions! The beach, water & snorkeling was very nice.

The cruise line built port was amazing! The too long of a drive to the excursion (jungle river float tubing) was not worthwhile.

Took taxi to nearby beach. Greatly enjoyed the Big Fish Restaurant and their beachfront property. Great food (guacamole and shrimp tacos)! Great prices. Free chairs and umbrellas and free kayak usage.

Pushy store salesman everywhere. Ugh! Went to Sky Reef for overpriced admission ($18 per person) and poor snorkeling. Not very friendly staff.

This was my 1st. Cruise vacation. I was so amazed by everything on the ship. The food was super excellent. The cleanliness on the ship was amazing. The cruise staff were very curtious and helpful at all times. The night activities were through the top.

Very Relaxing Cruise

Great
