Introduced a friend to joys of cruising & she loved her first time.Balcony was great to drink in the ocean air & relax while watching waves. Roomie was a smoker & she really appreciated the large smoking areas provided. Disappointed to find there is now a charge for lobster on less than 7 day cruises. Our waiter,Lawrence,in Main Dining Room, was fabulous. Disappointed there is now a charge for lobster on cruises less than 7 days. Need a little more diversity on entrees and desserts. The same chocolate cake dessert every night? It was good, but switch things up.Past cruises I've been on had theme meals as in Italian one night, something else another night, etc. Shows seem to have been down-sized from past. I have attended a show on first night and production show on last night with a magician on another night, all on same cruise. Room service crew was great and prompt.Went to Mr Sancho's Beach Club in Cozumel and it was great, with food and drinks included in price. Very relaxing, enjoyable day with plenty to do (or not) there with great service. Would go again. Used the take your own luggage off option on disembarkation day and was off the ship by 9:30.

Stayed overnight at Harbor House Hotel right next to cruise terminal. Nice, clean rooms with view of harbor. Free shuttle to ship and parking available for duration of cruise comparable to other cruise parking.
