We choose the Vista, because it is a newer ship, and had great reviews. It was very pretty, and the LED light displays were amazing. We missed; however, the large central area. We had trouble getting our bearings on the ship because there was no central point to help us. The ship was very pretty, but not spectacular.
Our cabin was lovely. We were in the spa area, so the colors were pleasing. Our cabin was spotless, and our room steward was the best we've ever had. His name was Yasa, and he was extremely efficient and courteous. We weren't looking for a lot of activities as we have cruised for years and we just enjoy going to sea.
We did have some serious problems. We noticed that the hand sanitizers were not working most of the time. There was no one at the entrances to the eating establishments to see to it that all hands were sanitized. We were a party of 16, and when we got off the ship, Eight of our party either had the flu or strep infections. The floor in the Lido Cafe was slick when the humidity was high, which was most of the time. They either need to replace that tile or run matting down the surface.
Cabin Review
Cloud 9 Spa suite
Cabin SS
The cabin was lovely. Our cabin steward (Yasa) was fantastic. The only problem we had was the tub shower. The jacuzzi tub had a glass door, and the frame raised the edge of the tub up by at least two inches. We are in our early 80's, and getting in and out of the shower/tub was dangerous. We managed. There was lots of storage, but they could have had one or two more shelves in the closet area.
Port Reviews
Roatan
we explored on our own, and found the area we visited to be very pretty
Belize City
we went on a little open air train. The area is poor, but the narrator made the most of what he had to work with . I would not recommend this tour.
Cozumel
There is a lot of shopping when you get off the ship. There were five big ships in port, so it was really crowded. They wanted your identification even if you paid cash for an item.
