The ship was clean, easy to navigate. The ports of call were definitely the best part of the trip. The days at sea got a bit boring.

Favority port of call by far. We took the zip-lining / beach break tour. The zip lining was great - 13 platforms and the kids got to hold a spider monkey. The tour guide was great and it was a well managed tour. The beach and water was really beautiful as well.

We took the CHaccoben Myan Ruin Tour and then to the Lake of 7 Colors - we booked through Cruises.com and it was really great. Our tour guides were awesome, and everything was well planned. They took very good care of us. The Myan ruin tour was just enough that the kids didn't get bored and they loved kyaking in the lake -it was crystal clear.

We took the snorkeling / beach tour through cruises.com. The snorkeling was good - the reef wasn't as pretty as expected. We ran into a school of jellyfish - lots of stings, but nothing serious. The beach/water was amazing.

Cozumel, Mexico

we weren't very impressed with Cozumel. we didn't take a tour, but hit Paradise Beach and then shopping in San MIguel. If you are there for the shopping, you will enjoy it. Paradise Beach had great watersports and play equipment - but it was a $12 fee per person. The water was mucky - so not as enjoyable. Not our favorite port.

Pros: The ports of call were the best part of the trip

Cons: The ship didn't have enough interesting activities. We had our kids with us and they were very bored. ALso, there were not enough restaurant choices.
