Creator's Key Takeaways

the food is so far not great now i've only been at the park cafe and the windjammer so far

holy crap these people are top pinnacles so friendly so helpful

if you're paying you know full price you're not getting a real discount i'd skip brilliance of the seas honestly

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“If you live near Tampa and can find a good deal, take the cruise.
โœ“Ask for a menu in Spanish and pesos to get local pricing in Costa Maya.
โœ“Get pesos before you get to the port to save money.
โœ“If you're paying full price and traveling far, skip this ship and choose a newer one.
