Review summary

We were glad to get away from the foggy, dreary Houston weather and enjoy the fresh air and sun shine of the Caribbean.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We dined at the Steak House and it was FABULOUS!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Not a lot to do with 2 teens and 2 older people. Only one small out door pool and very small casino. We did enjoy the rock wall, hot tubs and ping pong tables.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
This was my 8th cruise. I have cruised Carnival, Disney, Norwegian and Royal. This was a Spring Break cruise and the entertainment was awful! Shows seemed to be geared to a geriatric crowd. The best show we saw was the Apache Bells! The DJ was great and kept the crowd dancing and entertained with line dancing and popular dances! Young and old enjoyed the DJ.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward was the BEST! Always happy and helpful!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Always people cleaning and the ship always smelled clean. Bathrooms in public areas were always clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Could use a fresh make over. We enjoy the smaller ships, just wish you would put a little money back into them. The rooms are dated, towels very ragged and worn along with the bedding. We had a balcony room that was pretty pricey...so we expected thing to be just a little nicer. The room steward was the BEST! He was vey personable and did an excellent job keeping our room and bathroom spotless!

Ship tip

The adult pool has a food service counter where you can ask for chips!

This is one of my favorite ports! We did an excursion that we booked on our own. We just wish we would have had a little longer in this port.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
This was our first time at this port and we really enjoyed it! We did not leave the port but had a wonderful hour massage and a fish pedicure. We also shopped and used the beach and swimming pool in the adult area. We also had Mexican food at the restaurant! WOuls like the shop owners to be a little less pushy. Enjoyed the day and the extended time in port.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did an excursion that we booked outside the cruise line.
