Review summary

Loved our cruise, but it isn’t for everyone. It was great for my elderly mother, as the ship is easy to get around. But if you are looking for activities and entertainment, look for a bigger ship

Embarkation

The new cruise terminal is great! Got on the ship very quickly

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Food is good, although only one vegan option per category in the dining room and food is not marked as vegan, vegetarian or GF on the buffet

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Small ship, easy to get around. Our stateroom was very clean. The rest of the ship was clean, but not immaculate

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Nice room. Small shower. Even though it was just two decks below the theater, it was quiet

Ship tip

Don’t miss Rocking with the Captain

Belize City, Belize

2 out of 5
One of the cheaper places to buy souvenirs, especially perfume. Internet is really bad in the port area. If you’re not going on an excursion or shopping, stay on the ship
