Well I think they did a nice job for the most part on this sailing ,The company was forced to exchange Ensinada mexico for Nicaragua due to election violence, but its hard to blame them for wanting to keep us safe . I had better food on cruises and the buffet wasnt very good but we never eat there much so no great loss . This cruise had more single acts than production shows and Im prefer production shows over comedy and single singers but the three production shows were good . We did try a spa package the couples message was ok but a bit pricey and our specialty dining night at the crab shack was good but not great . Getting on and off the boat was easy at all times and we did opt for the simple shore excursions which were pretty average. Our cabin was nice but one should know cabins on the stern of the boat are far from most of the things like shows and meals. I enjoyed the cruise and the ports were interesting, the boat is still fun but nothing stands out , The cruise was a good value and as expectect for a nineteen day cruise the crowd was older

Balcony

Cabin BC

the cabin was tired but of decent size the tv was a large flat screen and the room had good storage our steward was good . It could use a few more plugs but thats about it . The bathroom was relly small and everybody joked about the shower
