Embarkation was quick and easy. We were up to the Garden Cafe within minutes after checking in at the port. Food was okay. The lines at the buffet were confusing, but you could figure it out how it went and was okay for the rest of the week. I enjoyed eating in the Seven Seas and Four Seasons for dinner all week as I am on vacation and want to be waited on. Also, the food was more interesting and better there. Didn't venture into the specialty dining rooms as I didn't think it was warranted. Did try out Pacific Heights one evening and liked the main dining rooms better. As far as getting away from the crowd when eating at the Garden Cafe or Great Outdoors, there is plenty of quiet seating in the Sports Bar adjacent to the Great Outdoors or even taking your plate into Pacific Heights. Nice and quiet.

We had a great balcony room in the aft directly overlooking the very rear of the ship on Deck 10, directly under the Great Outdoors. We couldn't have asked for a better room. More room for storing things than we could even use. Bathroom was small, but no smaller than other ships we've been on. Steward always kept the room neat and clean.

We didn't go on any excursions in Cozumel, just had a nice lunch in Las Palmeras and was serenaded by the guitarists. It was alot of fun. It was my 4th time to Cozumel and there really wasn't anything else I wanted to see. Read more
