O'Sheehan's Neighborhood Bar and Grille

Food overcooked, poor quality. Made me extremely sick ruining an entire evening!!!!!! My suggestion is that anyone skip this inclusive restaurant!

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Burn the Floor and Cirque Dreams and Steam were both top quality shows. Both with the time and Cirque was worth the up charge.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Our room steward failed to make up and turn down our daughter's bed. / If you only have a soda package, be prepared to have to go to a bar for your drink. Also expect to wait 5 minutes or longer for your soft drink. Soda machine located throughout the ship would be a much better option for soda drinkers!!!

Ship tip

The areas for smokers was far too small for the amount of people. This created congestion in those areas as well as frustrated guests.

Duel ruins tour was amazing. The snack and lunch were less than impressive for the cost of a ship sponsored excursion!

Thumbs Up 3

Harvest Caye, Belize

Beaches were mostly closed due to excessive seaweed. Prices are not as posted. There is an outrageous port tax that nearly doubled anticipated cost of food and drinks. A$2 coke actually cost $3.63 and no change was ever returned. A bucket of beer came with 8oz beers.
