Pebbles468 Posted September 14, 2013 #129 Share Posted September 14, 2013 If you do go to Cozumel, go and visit La Choza for lunch. It's a bistro style restaurant not far from the main shopping area. Asking for directions is a bit of hit and miss, so please do print a map of where the place is. La Choza sounds wonderful, is it walking distance from the ship or is it necessary to take a taxi?? Does the ship dock at Punta Langosta or International?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novicetraveller Posted September 15, 2013 Author #130 Share Posted September 15, 2013 La Choza sounds wonderful, is it walking distance from the ship or is it necessary to take a taxi?? Does the ship dock at Punta Langosta or International?? La Choza is in Downtown Cozumel. The Allure and the Oasis dock in the International port, so you will need to take a taxi, which costs about $8. The place also comes recommended by the locals, so unless they have shares in the place, they can't be all wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crackycruiser Posted September 15, 2013 #132 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I loved it. I am not a sun worshipper, and needed time away from the cruise ship. The only option was to go and chill in the cabana. Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun!! Nice review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

novicetraveller Posted September 15, 2013 Author #137 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, people of CruiseCritic (Have I covered everyone?), welcome back to Fort Lauderdale. We docked at 5:30am (about 15 minutes late). Thank you for traveling with me. I will upload some more images when I get back into London. I hope you all have a safe trip home, and welcome home.

novicetraveller Posted September 15, 2013 Author #139 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I loved it. I am not a sun worshipper, and needed time away from the cruise ship. The only option was to go and chill in the cabana. Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun!! Nice review. My bidy body is my temple. It does not know of what you call the midday sun. ;-). To be honest, I love the sunshine. My only complaint is the intensity and humidity. But going to the Caribbean is a treat worth getting burnt for. Next year I will be on the Oasis as part of her Drydock process. Have not yet decided where to go yet, but may follow a similar configuration to this cruise with 3 days or so in Barcelona and either a ships excursions or private.

Just quoting Noel Coward's most famous song, lol. My parents were British and were always singing it. To be honest, I love the sunshine. My only complaint is the intensity and humidity.

Have not yet decided where to go yet, but may follow a similar configuration to this cruise with 3 days or so in Barcelona and either a ships excursions or private. I will be going on the Allure in November so really enjoyed your review. Great job!! I have already been on the Oasis. They say they are much similar. Thanks again!!
