Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dinning room had a varied selection each night. Portions where right sized and enjoyed each meal. Went to Chops Grill first night, while food was excellent found the service to be slow by the waiter we had and he could have been more attentive to our table, other waiters seemed to be more attentive to their tables. Went to Giovannis on the 2nd night, service was better meal was ok but not really worth extra cost, went because of. BOGO deal Windgamer had a nice selection but needs help in how to lay out buffet, who would normally put all the condiments ( tomato, pickle onion before you even get to the bun, and than put the mustard and ketchup 2 stations away. Made for confusion in lines, Selection was good, only went at lunch.

Cabin / Stateroom

This was the first time I had an ocean view room as we would normally get a balcony but none we available when we booked. Overall the room was nice, was located mid ship, couple minute walk to everything.

Ship tip

Walked through the port store area and went to the exit where we rented a golf cart. $45 for 2 hours, drove into town and went to the beach at Big Momma's. Had a drink, some noahos and relaxed. Beach massages are available for $20 for one hour massage. Small Town, not much to see but the beach area is nice.

Belize City, Belize

Did a tour I booked online with Victor Bolton tours, was $30. Per person, cash, did a hour tour around island, than to monkey sanctuary, got to hold Slough and play with the monkeys and parriots. Than off to the Banannara resort for several hours of beach time. Tour guide was with us the entire tourand was excellent. Would recommend this tour to anyone. Found it on Utube if you want too see it.
