Review summary

Overall it was a 7.5/10 cruise. I would like to try it again in a warmer month to compare.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
Over crowded with a little bit of chaos thrown in. No official window of time to be there. Everyone, everywhere, all at once it seems

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Small gym. Too cold and windy three of the days to enjoy the top deck.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great professional productions. Great musicians

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Staff was helpful but the dining arrangement (had to reserve per day) was no always good. Never got to have the same wait staff more than a couple of times.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Not new, new, but very nice in a semi-classic Italian theme.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Upgraded to Mini-suite room R414. Very nice with full tub

Ship tip

Made a bid and was upgraded to a mini-suite

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas Did not visit port

Just drove in and out to embark and disembark

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Pretty good. Cozumel is always pretty solid. Did the semi-submersible boat and chocolate tour.

Belize City, Belize

4 out of 5
I like Belize and the excursion was good but the port transfer (tender/boat) was a fiasco. Not enough with 4 cruise ships anchored. Many people did not get ashore in time for their excursions.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Love Roatan. Nice excursion.

Happy you had a decent time and I agree with Belize. I no longer bother to get off the ship. It tests my patience every single time.
