It was good, very relaxing. Busy because it was around a holiday time. Stateroom was cleans and steward was very helpful, meals were good but they started slacking off around the end of the cruise.

Ship tip

Make sure you know your way around the boat it’s easy to get lost, make sure you make reservations before you leave.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

3 out of 5
It was busy, embarkation was unorganized.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Pretty, tons of shopping around the port so you don’t have to go very far from the boat.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

4 out of 5
It’s busy especially when you get right off the boat. Going outside the gates is risky.

Harvest Caye, Belize

5 out of 5
This is a beautiful area. Suggest getting off the boat right away for a good seat along the beach and money (your key card isn’t your money). I did the stand up paddle board. Beautiful views.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
It wasn’t super busy, not a lot of people get off here. If you are with a group communication is key. It’s very easy to loose people in the port.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
It was alright.
