Ship tip

Spice H2O was our favorite hangout, get there early to reserve a good spot, it gets a little crowded later on

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5
Visited Wynwood (the art district) was really nice and the food was great

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Loved this port. Took a tour to see the sloths and monkeys and then to a beautiful beach for snorkeling

Harvest Caye, Belize

1 out of 5
Wish I could rate it lower. Over priced $9 for a small cup of beer and $14 mixed drinks. Better off just staying on the boat

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
Always one of my favorites. Get out of the port and go downtown. $15 for an hour long massage. Great deals on shopping. Beautiful place to snorkel and scuba dive

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Get out of the port and do an excursion, lots to do

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
As good as can be expected when trying to unload 4 thousand people at once. Lol

We are also on the Getaway March 31 thought we would give them a shot just might make it a short stay at Harvest Caye

If you go on RCCL or Princess their private Islands take your sail and sign card or beverage package on the island works out nice.

Going on the getaway next March. Can’t wait. Sailed the breakaway in January and loved it.

Overall good review but Bad shows. Million Dollar Quartet may be best show at sea ever so far. Very well done. Sorry you felt otherwise

Maybe just enjoy Harvest Caye, the beach, the pool, the relaxation without alcohol
