I read on a different message board that self serve at buffets might be a thing of the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to guest services, had to request stateroom delivery. Was told everyone uses the app, saving paper, no longer automatically distributing to staterooms. Will see if we get paper ones now after we requested. You might have better luck asking your cabin steward for the Compasses to be delivered rather than guest services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare binro01 Posted March 1, 2022 Author #204 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) No paper compasses about. Even at the guest service area where they use to be readily available in multiple languages. I use the app so no skin off my back. At 3500 the ship does not feel crowded to me at all. went to Izumi Hibachi this evening. Worth the extra 10.00 per person. Presentation was not photo worthy, but I did take a lot of video, because it’s all about the show. Here is a little snippet. Tomorrow is Cozumel, we will be staying at Nachi Cocom for a beach day.

Tuckster Posted March 1, 2022 #206 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Thanks for this ..... Are the "dock" times the ship posts local times ??? And how about DST ?? I'm hoping to line up a dive with a local dive op and cannot remember how that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the cabin stewards I've had bend over backwards to try to accommodate any requests that I've had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted March 1, 2022 #210 Share Posted March 1, 2022 We went to Nachi Cocum last time we were there. It was nice, very quiet. I think we are going to Mr. Sanchos down the beach, next time we are there. It seemed a little livelier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COCKYMARK Posted March 1, 2022 #211 Share Posted March 1, 2022 They actually put all that information from the compass on the app? or is it condensed? that is alot of stuff to scroll thru on your phone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ever have a chance to go to the sea turtle rescue there, it is my fav. One of my partners (MrCatLady) adopts me a sea turtle from there every year for Channukah. So much fun! does anyone reading know if Allure has an escape room, and if so, whether it is operating? no allure doesnt have an escape room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key points are included.... dining times, activities, etc. It is a bit if a scaled down version of the Compass. The printed version on Allure a month ago was also scaled down from what we all know from pre-shutdown times. I do, however, still find it easier to use for a quick scan of what is going on for the day than using the app but I can make do without it. I tend to always have my phone with me on the ship anyway since I transitioned to listening to my music with it instead of using an I-pod. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare binro01 Posted March 1, 2022 Author #214 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Off the ship at 9am. At Nachi Cocom. Started with a rum punch and now a taquelia sunshine. Wife just enjoying the beach. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kccrzr Posted March 1, 2022 #215 Share Posted March 1, 2022 On Allure now, our cabin attendant asked if we wanted compasses. I asked for them on port days because I like to have the information re the port agent just in case anything happens and we have difficulty getting back to the ship. I do not see that info on the app. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people selling extras (snorkeling massages etc are not pushy). Very pretty beach. Little bit of the Seagram.

Getting there and back was a breeze. 17.00 for 1-4 people. (Plus tip). Getting back was simple too. They called the cab and gave me the cab number. No need to flag down or worry. We left around 2:30 and we’re back in our cabin by 3pm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare binro01 Posted March 1, 2022 Author #221 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Ok. Short review of Nachi Cocom in Cozumel. Nice quiet beach. They are not pushy with the upsells at all. Drinks were good. Not top shelf but not the cheapest you can find either. Food was tasty. I had the chicken fajitas, a plate of nachos a fruit salad and flan. You get an app, soup/salad, entree and dessert with the all inclusive package. The pool is very nice with a swim up bar. Also there is a very nice hot tub too connected to the pool. Plenty of shade. Water was warm in the pool but not too warm. No smell from the sargassum. They had 2 guys constantly keeping the beach clear from it. I tipped the servers 20 bucks once from the beginning and they just kept coming with drinks for me and my wife and kept us very happy. And now for the pictures. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be there in May. We got a great deal on the Atlantis submarine/ Nachi Cocum combo excursion. Question - cruise mapper shows seven ships in port today. Does Nachi Cocum still cap at 130? It looks nice and quiet in your pics! How long is the cab ride back to the ship? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is they capped their attendance. It was beautiful. Cab ride was about 15 min. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
