This was my family's 1st cruise. I can honestly say it was the first time that I can remember that I have taken a vacation and actually felt like I had one! We had two rooms - a balcony for my husband and I and an interior room across the hall for our sons. Angelica was an amazing attendant. Room was cleaned and towels refreshed twice per day. We ate in the dining room the first night but chose the Windjammer for the rest of the cruise. Food was great - lots of options. It was hard not to find something you liked.
We chose the Rhapsody for the ports. We went to Belize, Roatan, Cozumel and Costa Maya. In Belize we did a cave tubing and ATV adventure with Butts Up tubing. It was amazing. Would highly recommend this tour group. In Roatan we split up with one son and husband going to golf and myself and another son went to a sloth and monkey sanctuary and then a beach resort. The sloths and monkey were so much fun. It wasn't crowded and we got to spend alot of time with them. Cozumel brought us dolphins and manatees - another amazing experience. Costa Maya was a bit more relaxing at the water park (it had elevators to get to the slides!) and then a beach resort for lunch and drinks. There were alot of vendors that came up to you but as soon as you said no thank you not interested they left. Our family thoroughly enjoyed each port.
We will definitely cruise again.
The only real complaint is the size of the shower. The balcony was great to have and really made it feel more spacious than it was. Definitely worth the extra money.
