Review summary
This was out first cruise and had an amazing time. It was do much fun with lots of variety in activities, shore excursions, etc... The food in the boat was amazing and didn't have to purchase any meals on board. There were many options whether buffet of fine dining that were included in the cost. Staff was great, cleaned stateroom often even multiple times in a day. Ports were great (recommend Jeep tour in Cozummel, Cave tiding in Belize, and Zip Lining in Roatan). I'd avoid the beach in Roatan unless you take a boat out - very busy with people consistently trying to sell you stuff or massages. But highly recommend and will definitely take a cruise again. Groups on board were mainly older but options for younger ages and families too.

Ship tip
Bring bottled water on to the ship as they cost about $5 a bottle on board. Mainly stuck with ice teas or hot teas. They did serve juice in the AM and you can get water from the machines in the buffet or table side.
