as an adult traveler - loved the cruise - plenty to do. bar service had a broad selection and good service at any hour. cabins service was great - used the safe and when locked out - a security person had to show and use a tool so don't bother with taking ure own safe. shopping selection low - quality items were discounted but didn't change in last day.
last day shipping trinkets (clothes,bags, cz jewelry) were brought out for last minute buys. excursions- the coz beach pkg served only draft beer but could buy bottle beer else it was clean and fun. I used spa services in the side stores (very clean, cheap with no pressure). harvest cay - nothing outstanding. Costa mesa - do the tequila tour (12 $) and eat at it's restaurant over others. restaurants closest to the shop were over priced and unremarkable. ship dining - buffet and open dining restaurants were good. ship spa- spa services (a manicure) require you sign a waiver but staff unable to provide a paper copy of how they use your info only a web link to read when you get home. thermal rooms were clean and we'll maintained. cons - unable to use the 3 nite specialty dining package due to no availability in all specialty restaurants. these are very small restaurants and disfavored any group over 4 or more. Schedule very early if you buy this package! the cruise line was no help unless you chose to eat after 9pm and oversold this offer. do not bother with the wifi package - everyone who had it complained constantly. 2 way radios worked well for our group. bingo was expensive 40,50 or 70$ and sadly they were never prepared - long setup, cramped spaces when not in the theatre, the jackpot win is only after 46 numbers not to a final winner at each game and the raffle experience was horrific time waster - in the last day but they required u to sit thru the first two games. gambling - table play is 25 minimum- no exceptions even in slow times.
perfectly located for easy access to gym and spa. little foot traffic and wall separated the noise from elevators. at an and evening noise from floor 15 where crew placing or stacking lounge chairs.
clean. shopping was ok for the shirts and trinkets. the tequila tour, bar and food were the best of this trip. bartering for jewelry like cozumel best in the last hour before boarding.
