Nice relaxing vacation experience despite less than optimum weather and sea conditions. While disappointed that we could not visit Grand Cayman due to sea conditions, the extra day at sea was relaxing.

John Bourn, Stateroom Attendant was outstanding and very friendly.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Beautiful ship, nice layout - especially the Centrum and its size. (Been on bigger ships with smaller Centrums.) Ship appeared clean but some annoying odors in certain areas.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Stateroom was very clean and odor free. Many "creeks" in walls in interior room on deck 3 but didn't affect sleeping. Very comfortable bed.
Nice port with a lot of nuisance shopkeepers. Took excursion which utilized a fairy to Playa del Carmen, then a van to Tulum Mayan Ruins. Interesting, but bilingual tour guide at ruins very hard to understand. However, tour guide for rest of excursion spoke very good English.
Nice pier area. Excursion (kayaking through caves) was canceled due to high water level caused by excessive rain. Instead took taxi driving tour of Belize City. Driver very nice and helpful. City was typical third world city - not very nice. Some very bad streets. Really need to get outside of city and visit the islands of Belize.
Very nice port area. Did excursion through Maya Chan Beach Resort. An out-of-the-way resort about 1/2 drive by taxi (cost covered by resort) from port. Not a pristine area but they don't claim to be. Very fun time - they wait on you hand and foot constantly delivering drinks and anything else you desire. Lunch provided and lots of fun things to do like snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boards and floating beach chairs.
