We are booked at the Malaga Inn in a few months. We are planning to walk to the port. I had originally booked the Quality Inn, but the reviews made me cancel. We sail over New Years, so I can't say how well our plans worked out yet.

We flew in to New Orleans and took an Uber to the Embassy Suites in February, right after Mardi Gras. We had a balcony we could see the cruise ship from the next morning. The hot breakfast was nice and then it was a short walk to the cruise port. I followed Saint Greg's walking directions and he was spot on.

We sailed on the Pride for NYE to ring in 2023. There was a countdown in the atrium and on deck. On deck was packed with people and it was a great vibe. Free champagne at midnight, lots of great music. Party hats were left in the rooms earlier in the day for everyone and more given out all night. Loooong horn sound at midnight, so if you are asleep wake up! 🙂 It was a blast and would do it again if the schedules worked out.

We enjoy both ports, just know what you're planning in advance. Costa Maya has lots of options at the port, we enjoy going to Maya Chan for the day. But as someone else said, beaches have been rough with sargassum. We have been twice, last time in December. They said the sargassum is getting worse for more of the year now. But the included transportation, private palapa area, great drinks, amazing lunch, etc all make it worth it. 🙂 Belize is a tender port, so know you may not make it if seas are rough. There isn't much near the port, so plan ahead what you want to do. We've gone cave tubing several times. The port has become more commercialized, believe it or not, in the past 10 years or so, but it isn't as shiny and clean as Costa Maya. Worst part about Belize is waiting for a tender back to the ship.

That may be why I can't check out. Yesterday they were the old prices and I had issues. Today they are the new prices and I still have issues. I'll give it a few days to calm down and try again.

Nope. Same address. It also shows 9% off. In my mind, I thought they were previously 10% off.

I keep getting this error code: Please call customer service to proceed with your order. Message Code: SS001 Aside from calling, anyone know how to get around it or what it means?
