Wanted to check out the western Caribbean. The ship itself was nice and after taking a cruise last July on her sister ship to Alaska we were a little disappointed with this ship. Our cabin was ok though small and the balcony area had lots of peeling paint on the overhead. Booked a few outings through the cruise line, Beware the "Catamaran Snorkel and Sail" in Cozumel is really a booze cruise. 20 min of snorkeling a dead reef and 3 hrs of loud music and drinking. The "Catamaran Sail and Swim with the stingrays" in Grand Cayman was GREAT! Wonderful crew, nice sailing time and nice boat with large trampolines to lay in. Dinning was adequate though not great! Didn't feel the food was as good as the Alaska cruise. The servers were top notch as were the entertainment and shows. Did not like constantly being badgered to buy additional drink packages, food packages, etc. I realize this is how they make their money out would prefer to pay more for a cruise and not be badgered.
