    Nicer than when we last saw it. Only been there once! And didn't spend time at port. Went into Mahahual by taxi. Will be at this port in April. Because of your video we might just hang out in port! Looks nice enough. Going to check on ships in port for our day there. Thank you!

    Wow that's nice. Costa Maya has stepped their game up! We'll be back there in June 2024. It's currently 22 degrees here in D.C. as I write this, and I can't wait to get back to the wam Caribbean sunshine! Thanks for the added perspective on the crowd size. We'll be arriving on the MSC Seashore (5,100 pax double occupancy) so I can see how crowded it will be if there are two or more ships in port with us this summer.

      There are three pools, I only saw two originally but we are back this week on the Jubilee and there is an additional pool area we missed it’s right to the left when you get through the port building and it’s right up against the ocean and great views of the ships from there.

    Thanks for the video. It looks nice. I was wondering if they saved your chairs at the first pool so you could use them when you came back to them. I would also like to know how much it was at the 2nd pool, but it seems like you didn't find out that info.

    The walk from the ship/pier is likely over a mile, so if you want to get off the ship at this port, better have good walking shoes, sun block and lots of water for the walk.

    Just got back from there. It was ok. The vendors are out of control though and kind of spoiled our time there. Had some margaritas which made up for the harassment. Didn’t go on an excursion nor in the pool. Just explored what we could and went back on the ship. Maybe next time will do the ruins.
