Island tour was okay. First stop had some beautiful plants and trees. Butterfly / Bird Farm didn't have many butterflies but the birds were very entertaining. Last stop was pointless - the dancers obviously could have cared less that we were there. The dancers at the pier were doing the same dance and were much more enthusiastic. I would recommend the excursion for a first time visit to Honduras (as it was for us), but I wouldn't do this again. 


Roatan

Unless you are shopping for something specific - jewelry (beware as I wouldn't trust the shops to not sell items that don't turn your skin green), perfume, cigars, etc, no real point in disembarking. 
Our tablemates quite enjoyed the Mayan ruins. 
In my opinion, if you don't book an excursion, don't bother getting off the boat. We got back early and enjoyed being by ourselves next to the pool. 


Costa Maya

The sting-rays were really cool from above and the guides were very interactive - pointing out pregnant sting-rays, feeding the fish, and letting you touch items such as sea cucumbers. Bring your underwater camera as you will get some good shots. It's $30 to get a disc of all the shots taken of you on the excursion...turned out okay. 
The interactive portion was not well controlled. I would not bring children on this excursion nor would I recommend this excursion for the elderly. You stand in waist deep water with the sting-rays overwhelming us initially. Its a bit more peaceful once the feeding is done. However, as I mentioned above, the woman next to me ended up getting "sucked-on" and bled afterwards. 
I would not do the excursion again. We did the dolphin excursion the first time in Cozumel and would much recommend it over the sting-rays. 
Cozumel itself - if you are going to shop, I'd recommend doing it here as opposed to in Costa Maya. We really enjoyed walking around and there is much less pressure to buy. 


Cozumel

The interior cabin is not as bad as people describe.  Yes, you have to climb out of the bed on the end as opposed to the side.  As mentioned above, bring extra hangers and hang the majority of the clothing.  Put anything extra in the room (books, table) in your closet to open up the room.  

The bed is quite comfortable and you can stow your suitcases underneath the bed.  The pillows are so-so, but you'll be plenty tired if you stay active in ship activities.

The bathroom is much nicer now that the curtains have been replaced by a door.

We learned on Freedom to bring your own face towels as they use so much chlorine, we broke out.

Freedom demonstrated a true cutting back of costs by Royal, eliminating chocolate night and providing lower quality food at the main dining room each night for dinner.Though the driving to the dock to drop off luggage and then getting bussed over to the ship was time consuming (slowed by people disembarking both the Royal Caribbean and Carnival ships), once we got in line, our Platinum status made a quick trip through the lines to receive our SeaPass cards and get on the ship.
