Norwegian didn’t have enough extra to make me want to have loyalty to this line. Staff were great, ship was okay, and this cruise was right value for this trip.

Food and Dining

Good specialty dining. Teppanyaki and Lotus Garden we’re favorites and best food. La Cuchina should be an included, not surcharge restaurant—not that unique.

Other reviews made me think bathrooms would be too small but they were fine.
Our ship got bumped out to a pier a distance from town at the last minute. Meant tendering, shuttle’s, taxis. Too much trouble plus all snorkel and underwater excursions were cancelled. So I stayed on ship.
Harvest Caye was GORGEOUS! I took the Mayan Culture and Medicine Trail excursion. While you spend a lot of time getting there (boat to mainland, ride to rainforest) the lessons were incredible plus we had a Mayan guide who was so well-informed and very patient and frank with our questions.
Again snorkeling excursion canceled this time due to boat’s mechanical difficulties. Took an alternate last minute trip to Playa mahahual—a private resort for beach snorkeling.
Captain closed the evening before with announcement that we were not going to be allowed to be at preferred pier so there would be one less bay for unloading luggage. Ergo he wanted us all to know self-assist exit would be best. “It is what it is. There are things in our lives we cannot control.” This was the Captain’s near daily announcement on weather, tendering, the “ride.”
