Review summary

a lot of fun in the sun, but not too pleased with the port calls. I feel like the cruise should have given us something more than a $75 on-board credit considering we missed 67% of our scheduled and paid for port calls.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
very organized and timely

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
french chef and french cuisine not to my taste . . ordered pay to eat items that were excellent

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
enjoyed the sun decks, closed circuit television movies, and musicians. big ticket shows were okay, but missed picking up some of our programed entertainment due to not docking in ports.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
see above notes

Children's Programs

not sailing with children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
as noted earlier, room steward was the best we've had. everyone we came into contact with were great. the only ones not very friendly were the ones in the white suits (officers)

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
the 5 star rating says it all

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
larger than most we've had. outfitted nicely and well maintained

Ship tip

don't sign up for family wi-fi .... charge primary, then charge again for family . . misleading when you read it on the website

Ports of call

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras Did not visit port

cancelled due to weather

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico Did not visit port

cancelled due to weather

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
5th time to visit, so we know the port pretty well. enjoyed our stay, the food, and the vendors

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
extremely efficient . . best we've encountered yet

Appreciate your detailed feedback. I’m sure the cruise line would have rather docked at each port. Glad you somewhat enjoyed your cruise.
