Board the ship and kick off your vacation in style. Settle into your stateroom, explore the ship, and toast to the journey ahead as we sail into paradise.

Known for its lush landscapes and stunning coral reefs, Roatán offers breathtaking beaches, crystal-clear snorkeling, and rich island culture.

🇧🇿 Day 4 - Belize  (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM)
There are plenty of reasons why a cruise to Belize should top your travel bucket list. A tropical paradise that promises adventure, both onshore and off? You better Belize it!

Deposit: $96.00

HOW DO GRATUITIES WORK ON A CRUISE?

The staff on your cruise works hard to make fun happen for you, and guests show their appreciation by tipping. Stateroom attendants, waitstaff and other folks you’ll see throughout your cruise appreciate the tips they receive. But just as important are the onboard employees working hard behind the scenes to make your cruise amazing!

The easiest way to show you care is through automatic gratuities. This is great because 100% goes to employees, making sure nobody’s efforts are forgotten. When booking, these tips can be automatically applied with a click!

OKAY, HOW MUCH?
Tips are on a per-guest basis, at the following rate:
  • Standard Staterooms: $16 USD per guest, per day
  • Suite Staterooms: $18 USD per guest, per day
(Remember that these figures are for everyone who helps you, throughout your cruise!)
MORE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT TIPPING
  • Tips are assessed for all guests ages 2 and up.
  • A service charge of 18% will be added to your bill at Bonsai Sushi, Bonsai Teppanyaki, Chef’s Table, Emeril’s Bistro, Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse | Brewhouse and Seafood Shack. Additional gratuities can be added at your discretion.
  • When ordering room service, tipping is encouraged upon delivery.
  • Tips are not included in the menu price of beverages — an 18% service charge will be added to the bill, and additional gratuities can be added at your discretion.
