    Secret River vs Xcaret vs Xel-ha?

    We went to both rio Secreto and xcaret on a vacation a couple of years ago (ie not on a cruise). Rio secreto was an amazing experience. I personally though XCaret was not worth it at all. Rio secreto has wetsuits for all sizes but they are "shorties" ie not full leg

    How's the coffee on board?

    I wasn't a fan of the specialty coffees at cove cafe...not well brewed. The basic coffee in the dining areas was ok, not strong enough for me. We brought Via packets to improve things

    St maartens- what beach on own?

    We currently have a beach excursion planned for our feb stop in at Maarten, but it seems like we might want to just do that on our own. What is a good beach to go to, easy to get to from ship, and for kids (6&10)...or is it better to stick to the excursion. Not sure there's much else we'd want...

    Edge-strict with ages?

    My son will be 10.5 when we go on the fantasy. I think he enjoyed the kids clubs last year but wondering if he'd be allowed to check out the Edge, or are they strict with the age limits?

    We have just 1 day in orlando after the cruise...is this realistic (universal)

    Ok, sounds doable....I know we were on the road quite early at our last disembark. Unfortunately our flight leaves mega-early Sunday (7am!!)...headed back to CA, so I think we can only do 1 day....would it be worth staying onsite and checking in 1st so we can get the express pass or go directly...

    Harry potter-one day only

    Thank for the advice. Overall which park is more worth going to, islands of adventure or the main one, if we just did a single park pass? We have a 10 and 6 yo. The 10 yo does not like wild rides, but is newly interested in HP. The 6 yo has not read HP but is more adventurous in terms of rides...

    Timing for Secret River

    My 5 year old was able to make it with limited swimming skills and a little help. It was neat! We didn't do it from a cruise, it seems like it would be a huge excursion coming from Cozumel
