We are arriving the Saturday after Thanksgiving, so a holiday weekend. Also, two of the four of us don't care for seafood, so unless they have other options that may not be a good choice for us, unfortunately. Thank you for your help! 😊

Yes, we will be driving our own car. Don't mind driving maybe up to 20 minutes from the hotel, but I'm sure we won't want to be in the car much after a 9 hr drive so that's why I was looking for something close. I've also heard good things about Papa Vito's. Anyone have any input on that?

We are driving in the day before our cruise out of Port Canaveral. We are staying at Country Inn & Suites near the port and looking for recommendations of a good place to eat dinner that night that's not too far away. Thank you.

Thank you 😊

It will be our first time in Cozumel and our first time venturing away from the port, so I have been watching tons of YouTube looking for a good beach excursion. I saw these mentioned several times, along with Mr. Sanchos (not considering this one). We are looking for a more relaxed atmosphere with good food and clean bathrooms. We do not drink alcohol, but do enjoy virgin drinks and non-alcoholic beer. We also will not be bringing any of our children along on this cruise. Both places looked really nice and not too crowded or rowdy on most of the videos we watched. I know it all depends on the visitors there that day though.

Please make a mid tier drink package that includes bottomless bubbles plus shakes and coffees.

Any recommendations? This will be our first visit to Cozumel.

Experiences or recommendations? We prefer a more relaxed atmosphere.

I think they both have the same 😊

Thank you so much for all the info. I didn't even realize there are port specific boards. I will definitely check them out. If Mardi Gras sailed to HMC, that's where I would choose everytime hands down. I know we could choose another ship, but really want to try MG. We like lazy beach days best. We do not drink. We will be sailing during the month of November. Would love to snorkel or possibly have a dolphin encounter. I'm sure there are amazing excursions out there, I just don't know what they are. I don't want anything with a long bumpy ride or alot of hiking uphill.

Thank you! We want to go to Jack's Shack anyway 😊

Beautiful! I have heard GT is rocky. Is it really bad so that you need shoes?

Are any of these beaches as nice as HMC? Soft sands and clear waters? Thank you to everyone who has replied so far.

Nassau, Amber Cove, Grand Turk or Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mahogany Bay Trying to decide which to choose for our 30th anniversary, our second cruise. We've only been to Nassau and HMC. Best beaches, excursions, etc. HMC set the bar high for us. Thank you!
