Went on this cruise as a girls trip/birthday trip with a friend. Started out well, and we enjoyed the first four days no major issue. You must try zip lining if possible in Roatan, we got one that did nine different lines and it was a blast (first timers too). We did cave tubing in Belize - kind of crowded and a little sleepy but cool if you are into the Mayans and their history.

The food was ok. Room service was pretty terrible. Our breakfast just never showed up one morning. The main dining was ok, but we were sat at a table for six and most nights it was just us two, kind of awkward. The buffet was again just ok...until the 4th night where I contracted food poisoning. I ended up missing Cozumel completely because of this (including the excursion we had already booked), and when I finally felt up to leaving the room to go tell medical, they then told me I had to be quarantined. I get it, it's the rules. So, 48 hours in an interior stateroom. When I ordered the room service medical had told me to-rice, toast, applesauce etc-they didn't even bring half my order. The next time I ordered, it happened again. Guest services did call me to tell me that I could order a movie on tv, but our tv didn't have a way to do that, they also said I could get gatorades and would be reimbursed but I didn't want to chance it. By the time I was finally free, there really wasn't much going on. We had planned to do all the fun water slides and ice skating that last day so it didn't happen.

For what we paid for this was a let down. They seem to nickel and dime for everything. But do note, the cafe, minus blended coffees, is all included, and the pizza place is included as well. Jonny rockets is well worth the extra cost but the shakes are an extra cost on top if you want one of those. Don't bother going to any of the "get this free" shopping talks. You don't actually get anything, you have to go to shops in port to receive the free stuff and then they try to get you to upgrade.

Roatan

Beach and snorkel, water was kind of rough, but they took us out to a reef. Saw some pretty cool stuff and could have stayed out there longer.
