  1. I agree. We did it several years ago and I am seriously considering doing it again. I think that we used Butts Up Cave Tubing. It also included a stop at Amigos for lunch. Very good tour.
  2. Yep. I second it. Make reservations online. I think that they only take 130 people.
  3. I never thought about it out of Tampa either. We have a Celebrity cruise in April of 25.
  4. Beshears, There is a lot of good info at: www.cozumelmycozumel.com and cozumelinsider.com. They have lists of beaches and restaurants.
  5. We have snorkeled at several different locations on Coz. Play Uvas, Playa Corona, Chankanaab Park, and Dzul Ha before the Money Bar was there. Our favorite is Chankanaab with the Money Bar second.
  6. They don't make change either. Take small bills.
  7. We usually do MDR and then top it off at the Windjammer.
  8. We did Carnival and Royal last year. Yes the food has declined, both in selection and palatability, but I never went to bed hungry. Cruising is still the cheapest vacation for us. I have priced AI Resorts and can't come close to a cruise.
  9. Be yourself. You will probably never see these people again.
  10. If I remember correctly, it is a little cool. Mid to upper 70's.
  11. I miss the days of the Hole-in-the-Wall Gang. Found out about Chac Chi here on Cruise Critic and had to check it out on our second visit. Had the beach to ourselves. The cruise companies tried to get the owner to sell and put a fence around the resort to stop entry. Even the taxis were reluctant to go there, so someone made a hole in the fence. Alas, a hurricane finally closed the resort down. Mahahual was a street of beach clubs and small stores. I remember one about the size of my storage shed that was named Woolmart. It was fun then but not our cup of tea now. We will book one of the beach clubs like Nohoch, Maya Chan, or Jaime's. To be honest, I really liked Calica better, even though you had to take a tour or a taxi to see anything.
  12. Depends on the port. Jamaica has three with Ocho Rios the only one that I debark for. Montego Bay and Falmouth don't have anything but possibly a beach that would interest us. I believe that the warning was for Montego Bay. Labadee is private and is pretty secure. I wouldn't go anywhere else on Haiti without a gun.
  13. Up front, I will say that I am cheap. Not frugal, just monetarily challenged so I always crunch the numbers. We leave in 4 weeks for a cruise on the Voyager of the Seas out of Galveston. We did this ship last May with our daughters, so we are familiar with the ship. I booked back in November through an online TA that we have used for 20 years. I got an inside cabin on deck 2 midship for@253@. Add port fees, taxes, insurance and tips and it comes up to $1026.59. Always wanted to try Celebrity. Found a 6 night on the Constellation out of Tampa in April 2025 for $535 with inside cabin midship on deck 2. Taxes, insurance, fees, tips, and processing fee brings it to $1316.29. We will drive to both ports. Giner D's Buick gets 38 MPG.πŸ˜‰
  14. We have been to Nassau twice which was once too many. Much prefer islands farther south. If I had another stop in Nassau I would stay on the ship, eat, hit the waterslide, and eatπŸ˜‰.
