  • Costa Maya Mexico Cruise Port | Watch This Before You Book An Excursion | No Need For An Excursion.
    We Explore the port of Costa Maya Mexico while cruising on Carnivals newest ship Carnival Jubilee. this port has 3 different pools to choose from. The pools are free to use but to have a seat you need to purchase a $14-$16 dollar drink per Lounger. Our visit on this cruise had 4 ships at port and two of them were Mega ships so you will see that the port is very busy.

    Hey guys, Tampa here. I sail out of Tampa on May 11th, and will be in Costa Maya along with Harmony OTS. For me, two ships are too many, and Harmony will probably be busy. My plan is to taxi over to Mahahual for a couple of hours and check it out, than back to that last pool you showed on your video. Less quiet, but a tad pricy for a lounger. Thanks for the video, and am looking forward to getting out of town, whether I get off the ship or not. I sail out of Tampa often, because its so convenient for me, 10 minutes from the port. Sail safe !!

      @@FowlerFamilyFunDefinitely need to check it out IF you can handle the "retro gaudy" vibe and under 3000 capacity. You don't get the "bling" overload. Yes, there are limited dining options for free or specialty. That's not everyone's preference. Our adult kids (25/31/25 this year) like the low key relaxing vibe. For a seven day it is TOTALLY great. We had so much fun on the Legend in 2023 with them. And our daughter in love is NOT a Carnival fan. Maybe it was because it was a "family/friend" cruise for a celebration. But go in knowing it's not glitz/glamour "WOW" and feel the experience. There are tons of things to do. Easy to get around. Just sitting at places listening to music, trivia, etc. TOTAL decompress mode. PLUS the atrium and glass elevators mid and aft, PRICELESS.

      Think of it like this at the pool one chair = one drink. So if you want to use a chair to lay on or put your stuff in you have to buy a drink. The drink is 15-18 dollars for the chair. I think you can actually get in the pool for free as long as you don’t sit in a chair.
