I love an adventure, but it was very sketchy the last time I did this walking tour last fall. Human feces on the sidewalk kind of sketchy, not just too many vendors kind of sketchy. There were ladies trying to charge us money to climb the staircase, which is not real. It's sad, but I'm staying on the ship next month except maybe to check out the new port area.

I just did a balcony guarantee on Mariner for 9/29. At the time of booking the balconies were sold out. I got room 8600, a nice mid-ship balcony. Happy camper!

Costa Maya was our last stop on the Allure last week and truthfully, I was at that point where I couldn't eat or drink any more, so I'm very glad I didn't go with an All-inclusive. I cruised with a friend and we took the $4 per person each way taxi to the Krazy Lobster based on CC posts. The cab was clean and nice. After we got to town, someone escorted us to the Krazy Lobster and found us lounge chairs in the sun. They immediately brought us tiny sample frozen margaritas. I love Pacifico and Sol beer and they are kind of hard to find in my town (at least at restaurants). I had one of each and my friend had a Coca Cola lite. Our bill was only $6 since we weren't hungry and had already had a Bloody Mary or two on the ship. We gave them $20. We had a great time watching a few local families play in the cold water. There were a few vendors who were very polite. We bought a mango and it was amazing. View from our chairs Looking in the other direction from our chairs A vendor of beautiful blankets. You can also see how extremely laid back the Krazy Lobster is. The main street. The manager was standing here as we left and he introduced himself and asked how everything was. We felt very safe walking to the taxi area from here. It was a great day and so much better than the port area to me.
