Creator's Key Takeaways

I almost left this cruise with the wrong ending. Something didn’t sit right earlier in the week, and I couldn’t shake it.

The entire six days on the URE were great. Got a joker over here. I was really impressed with how that ship has held up over the past 15 years.

It was incredibly quick and easy and I’m really impressed.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Negotiate taxi prices before getting in at Costa Maya.
Try the chef's table for a special dining experience.
Give Chops Grill a second chance if your first meal wasn't great.

YouTube Video Description

I almost left this cruise with the wrong ending. Something didn’t sit right earlier in the week, and I couldn’t shake it. So before stepping off the Allure of the Seas, I decided to test it one more time. Risky? Maybe. Necessary? Absolutely. In these final days, I’m scuba diving in Costa Maya, staying onboard in Cozumel to get work done, trying a few “special” experiences, and pushing this sailing right up to the wire before an early flight home. The question is… does the last impression fix everything that came before it? ----- ⚓ Our Trusted Travel Partners: 🤝 🛳️ Ready to Book Your Next Cruise? Cruises It makes planning easy!
