Excellent value for money cruise that started with a smooth embarkation process in Miami.

Great mixture of ports of call the highlight being the Panama Canal transit & on-board ship narration plus cultural Cartagena, Costa Rica for nature lovers and beach activities of Roatan & Costa Maya interspersed with 4 days at sea to relax on-board and enjoy the ship.

Mid-sized ship and although reportedly a "full" cruise never felt overcrowded and always plenty of quiet places to sunbathe or sit & relax within the ship during the day and plenty of choice for bars & food in the evenings.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Balcony

Cabin BA

Very clean with plenty of space & storage; small TV with Movie & Sports channels, great sized balcony with 2 chairs & small table, safe for valuables and good sized bathroom with sliding door separators for shower & toilet.

Amazingly comfortable bed and no noticeable noise throughout.

Port Reviews

Miami

2 Days in Miami ahead of cruise spent on South Beach; great place to hangout.

Cartagena (Colombia)

Caught taxi to Old Town from port (only $10); great historic town to wander.

Costa Maya

Caught taxi to Mahual beach only $5, beautiful beach and great choices for food & shopping
