Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining room food was so good! I ordered 3 or 4 apps each dinner. Le Bistro was my favorite, the sea bass was amazing. Cagneys has a fantastic fillet! Great service from all restaurants!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Sat poolside on sea days. Have to get there early to get loungers. People were saving loungers and sat empty for hour or more, not cool and not allowed! Drink lines were bad tho. Waited 15mins or more sometimes. Other times only 5mins. Secret tip, if going to the Sky High bar and long line, go inside to the Spinnaker Lounge for ur drinks, almost no wait.

Entertainment

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The layout was weird, the bow elevators wouldn't take us all the way down to deck 5, had to take mid ship elevators.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Excellent room! Roomy, lots of storage areas, bathroom clean. Wish the bed had a connector on top, because by morning we were sleeping separate cuz of the crack in btwn the two beds.

Ship tip

No excursion, just dropped off by shuttle bus from airport. Everything went smooth with drop off

Harvest Caye, Belize

3 out of 5
Too commercialized, overpriced! Dont buy anything here. Drinks on beach cost $3 more than off beach. Beach was nice tho! I wont visit again.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
Get out of the port! Take a $4 per person cab ride 5mins down to Tropicante beach club. Beautiful, turquoise water, cheap buckets of beer, good food. I'll return for sure!

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Took 2 hrs of standing in line, way too long.
