Perfect! Clean, nice decor, shower small.

Ship tip

Try the food at the coffee bar at midship deck 5 after hours/late. Much better than poolside foods.

Disembarkation

Went through customs prior to picking up luggage. Luggage already screened. Ships crew was at least one hour ahead of our disembarkation time and flow was fast and easy!

I was aware I was only visiting one port.i was there with the Kenda group. I have always taken 7 day trips with 4 stops which I would recommend over this type 100%. I get a better value at about $130 less.

They definietly need to switch Magic to Do with something else! Oscar was a phenominal comedian. I wish I remembered the other one as well. Haha

If you want more ports you need to book one that does more ports. I did not like the 13:00 to 13:00 either, but it was designed for those wanted Cabo nightlife. They still doing Magic to Do? Yuck.
