Questions - Just Booked Independence

[paulmlac]

We just booked Independence & have some questions that we'd like some input on:

 

Does the Refreshment Package include unlimited bottles of water? Here is what it says in cruise planner:

Keep hydrated all day long with unlimited fountain soda refills in your Coca-Cola souvenir cup or a refreshing bottle of still or sparkling water

The word "a" before water makes it sound like just 1 a day.

 

We selected My Time Dining. Cruise Planner suggests making reservations in advance. However, not knowing what times the shows are, how do we do this?

 

Does anybody have a recommendation between these shore excursions in Costa Maya:

• Costa Maya Beach Break (at Private Escape Beach Club)
  
• All Inclusive Beach Getaway at Uvero.
  

 

Does anybody have a recommendation between these shore excursions in Cozumel:

• Amazing Secret River And Playa Del Carmen
  
• Jeep To Punta Sur Eco-Park
  
• Beach Break At Playa Mia (normal & deluxe options available)

The Refreshment package includes unlimited bottles of water.

 

Shows are normally timed to be convenient for the two traditional dining times, so if you pick times close to those, you should be OK.

Agreed! We had MTD this past summer. I did like being able to then set our own reservation time, getting the same waitstaff/table each night. I want to say we picked like 6 or 6:15, which isn't too long after the early dining started. And we were always done in time to go to the later show.
