Cabin: Spa Balcony Stateroom

Boarding and Disembarking smooth and easy. The ship is beautiful. There are so many places to explore. The Waterfront, the library, Spice H2O (adult only pool and spa). These are place where you can play cards, read a book or enjoy shade or sun. Never Crowded. Hardly ever a wait at the elevators. The Atrium is a place where Multiple generations can share in trivia, movies or lectures. The crew were pleasant, professional. The guest services desk open 24 hours never a line. The entertainment was the best we have ever seen. Burn the Floor is A++, Specialty restaurants - fresh baked bread in La Cucina, Great steak in Cagney's, great breakfast at O'Sheehan's loved the mushrooms. Lots of Ice cream. Pastries are lacking, but the Bake Shop has good cupcakes. Skip Le Bistro, wouldn't recommend it. Cirque Dreams great dinner and show. Harvest Caye is safe, clean and beautiful. Families can really relax there. Food and drinks are very reasonable - much less than Disney land. The atmosphere is great and the butterfly exhibit had beautiful blue butterflies. Excursion tickets are given to you and you meet at the pier...no group tags or walking you to the place. Free style..eat when and where you want. We can hardly wait to go again and to take the grandkids. So much for kids to do on board and Harvest Caye has outstanding zip lines, pools, etc. Spa package - we used it about three times. Loved the hot tub, thermal recliners and saunas. Would buy by the day in the future rather than spa package. Like H20 spa just as much.

Cabin Review

Spa Balcony Stateroom

Cabin B9

Cabin was adequate. Liked having the coffee machine in the room. Storage under the bed was good. Plenty of room for clothes. Bed was ok. Balcony was enjoyable. There were a couple of nights where we heard them cleaning the children's play are upstairs, but nothing too invasive.

Port Reviews

Harvest Caye

Cannot say enough good things about this port. It is safe, clean, fun and beautiful. Please ignore the nay sayers. It is well worth experiencing and enjoying. I can hardly wait to take the grandkids there. There is so much to do for all ages.

Costa Maya

It was raining so we just walked around the shops and then got too wet and returned to the ship.

Cozumel

We enjoyed shopping and having lunch at the Lobster Shack.
