Galveston is pretty simply to figure out.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The food was better then I expected, but it should be so much better.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
This boat is boring, and nearly everything was closed down, we never even got to get in a Jacuzzi or go rock climbing. Also the main pools were closed all days at sea.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
The shows are ok at best.

Children's Programs

I didn’t do anything in the kids areas.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The workers were great!

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
The boat is old, like 1996 old . Also it’s the smallest boat you’ll ever get on.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Clean and perfectly fine.

Ship tip

Don’t book this boat and you’ll be happy. Book a much bigger and newer boat.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

3 out of 5
Hardly any traffic, we found it simple to navigate. You will have to shuttle to your car and back from terminal.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

1 out of 5
Costa Maya is so boring, it’s not even really Mexico, even when you go into the main city close by, it’s the same, just small gift shops. I wish cruislines would stop going here.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
We payed a taxi driver to drive us around the city. We enjoyed our time here. We ate at Casa Mission and it was excellent! Highly recommend.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
It took us 2 hours from standing in the Masquerade theater to being in our car.

Being a fellow passenger (1st time cruiser) my guess is because the ocean was rough.. windy... got off yesterday.. still feeling dizzy and like I’m moving.. but traveling in March your weather will probably be better.. I personally won’t cruise again 🤢

Agree about wanting information on the pool be closed the whole time. I get on VOTS on Monday.

We are going on the 19th of March....I would also like to know about the pool closing!

Why did they close the pools while at sea?
