Creator's Key Takeaways

We loved it, didn't we? I guess we loved it. Loved it.

The Mayan ritual is what we're running for because honestly, I really wanted to do the Mayan ritual twice.

Western Caribbean Charm, hands down, I will never poo poo it again. Everyone should be doing it.

The food was phenomenal. I will say that the chicken was a little interesting. It had bones in it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book the Mayan ritual in Costa Maya, even if it shows sold out; ask on board for availability.
✓Rent the Mermaid Hideaway Airstream in Bimini for a great group experience.
✓Bring your own paintbrush for the boozy painting activity.
✓Get off the ship early in ports to book excursions and avoid rushing.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Time zone confusion in ports — Ship stays on Eastern time; Roatan is 2 hours behind, Costa Maya is 1 hour behind.
Feeling uncomfortable with show-and-tell in Mayan ritual — The format has changed to inner self-reflection with rosemary; you can just say you're there for a massage.
