We just did this resort on our cruise off the wonder of the seas and it was great had so many shops and the pool was awesome. Yes we saw the Flamingos too..
The port area in Costa maya is great, lots to do without ever leaving the port area. We have stayed in this area a few times in the past and just relaxed, but this time we wanted to do something different and explore Costa maya outside the gates ☺️
@ryanandkala yes totally agree with you. I would love to see the Myan temples on my bucket list. Next time we go I'm doing that tour you did. You guys are so much in sync with each other that's great. Did you guys find that bar with the Rope swing seats at the bar. They made great Cadillac Margaritas. You could sit backwards staring at the crowds going by while sipping on a cocktail. There also was a little shop that sold rhinestone and Swarovski crystals string bikinis. My wife bought one they had them at $300 which for crystals and rhinestone is good in itself but I got her down to $200. Everyone there was so friendly. When my wife got back on the ship she put on that swimsuit and got tons of complaints and after a few days wearing it on ship and beach it's held up fine. We're leaving in 4 days to go on Navigator of seas for 7 days then we're off too alaska in 3 months. We love following you guys your videos don't have all that loud music and you both keep it real. 👍👍
@bigguy1403 wow that sounds like a sweet bikini!! 👙 We have seen those swings and sat on them before our wedding actually! Love them! Oh wow you have an amazing lineup going there! We loved navigator and Alaska sooo much!! Have an awesome time on all your cruises!!
@Suziecooper1485 My husband and I normally cruise Carnival, but have recently cheated on them with RC! Just to test the waters (pun intended 😊). I recently discovered I like the larger class ships! Less drama seemingly! ❤
@iamshelleymade9298 haha! It’s not cheating, it’s quality control haha! Gotta give everyone a chance to blow us away with their service and experiences. We tend to like the larger ships, there’s a lot more to do, even though there’s generally more people and longer lines, there’s a lot of varieties of activities. 🥂
I've only been on 2 cruises. Started too late in life. I've only done Carnival. The Conquest was my first, and the Magic was my second. Next year, I'm doing the Disney Treasure, and in 2026, I'm doing the Carnival Mardi Gras. 😊
I’ve heard the Mardi Gras is a fun ship! We have only done Royal and carnival so far, we also started pretty late in life too, our first cruise was about 10 years ago. This year we are trying Norwegian and celebrity! Let us know what you think of Disney!
Always wanted to go on a Disney cruise. You will definitely love it! Cruises in general are amazing not matter which line you go on. They are all special in their own unique way.
I cruised the celebration end of February and your videos are making me realize how much I miss it lol!! Thank you guys for taking us along! I’ve been eyeing the costa maya, roatan, and cozumel/belize itinerary for a minute maybe I need to book 👀🥰
Also I found deal or no deal to be the best game we played on any ship, the best chance to actually win something! Bingo is a waste in my opinion especially on big ship.
@georgieee165 it’s such a well done game too! So professional! We love it! I am just more invested in the person on stage winning when I don’t have a stake in the game haha!
We used to literally only go to beaches… the vlogs have really brought us out of our comfort zone and made us do more exploration! Some of these places have so much history and beauty beyond just the beaches, it’s been amazing to explore them! ♥️
Ncl is a great cruise line been on 3. I have no complaints great service, drinks and food. Trying celebrity in October then royal Caribbean in February. Super excited!
We love Carnival. We do want to try Royal too but Carnival has been good for us and our family with a 12yr old. We are booked for a journeys cruise in 2026! (14days) . Super excited! Love your videos 😊 Edit to add: we did the Amber Cove water falls excursion you all did!! I totally have more respect for Kala jumping. Those jumps are no ioke! I took the ladders on the really high ones😂😂😂
Thank you so much for saying that about those jumps haha! Glad someone can back me up that they were scary haha! Oh wow let us know how the 14 day cruise is!! If you have any questions about trying Royal let us know ☺️
Another fantastic production! Very informative as well as entertaining! Deal or No Deal is a glorified game of Bingo. A few people win a little bit of money but as you noted, the intent is to make money for the "house". Rock on! 😎😎😎
We are currently loyal to Carnival! they are giving us the best casino comps for sure... we have only been on Celebration. Love thier fast free food and think the cocktails are waaaay better :)
We only gambled a bit and we even got some casino offers. It seems carnival is really good about those offers! Don’t blame you for being loyal to them at all! I 100% agree with you about the drinks too!! So good! 😊
Will have to check out that resort. Bacalar? Could you maybe spell that for me? Last time we went to Maya Chan and I think that might be hard to beat just for the amazing bohemian vibe, but that one is really pretty! Not terribly interested in ruins (my personal history geekdom lies elsewhere), so we'd be looking at just spending the day at the beach club. The day we were there in Feb (around same time as you, just on the Celebration) the water was insanely choppy. The port area looks pretty cool, but I'm just not a fan of being a captive audience with a pool and $15 drinks when I can go be by the ocean somewhere. Maya Chan ocean wasn't great, but that's Costa Maya. The little all inclusive they had there totally made up for it and then some. If you guys get back that way, highly recommend. It's like a small, mom and pop version of Mr. Sanchos, but super chill. Fantastic food, too. I keep adding on, sorry for the long post! I end up loyal to Carnival simply because I can't justify turning down the casino deals I get to try another line. I generally get free balcony cabins with cheers included. Lost my mind on one particular cruise, then have mostly behaved on the rest but they still constantly toss me deals and I keep catching. ONE OF THESE DAYS though, I really want to get on a Virgin cruise!
They were definitely worth seeing! If you book the native choice tour we recommend doing the one with the family feast at a locals house. Apparently it was amazing!
Hey, great vid as always! Cant wait till the paradise beach vid. September we are going there and even got the day bed. Just because 😂. No real reason haha!
We had only sailed Carnival until this year. We took Norwegian to Alaska...I enjoyed it, however, I think I like the food and entertainment on Carnival better!
Wasn’t Alaska the most magical trip?? Hope you had an amazing time. The food on carnival is so good, especially the free options, it’s honestly hard to beat
Alaska was great we for sure had a great time. Just get me on a ship. Cruising is what you make it. If you don’t have fun it’s your own fault!!!! Enjoy your videos. Keep it up!!!!!
I believe I said that properly in one of our other videos haha 🙈 I definitely botched it big time in this video. Thank you for the proper pronunciation 😂
Thanks for sharing this I have always wanted to see these. A new DNA study on the bones found in they Mayan temples showed that the ritual sacrifices we all young boys and they were often related. Might want to google it. Some new info. Again thanks.
@@ryanandkala Excursions are well executed. Ship venues accommodate on board activities attendants. Familiarity of the ship regardless of ship size or age. And there medallion technology exceeds others. Customer service is capable to swiftly handle any and all issues. We feel that we're more aligned with the Princess demographic. Most important their inclusive packages offer better savings than other cruise lines.
Another great video. Which NCL and Celebrity ships are you on? Those are our favorite lines. The Celebrity Silhouette class of ships is the most fun. Our best cruise in 30 years of cruising. The live music and dancing on Celebrity and NCL are the best at sea.
First cruise Royal, next 5 Princess . Taking World Cruise 2025 with MSC. MSC matches Princess’ loyalty level, not why Im trying them but the price was stupendous!! Plan on trying Virgin in 2026 with adult children. Princess is feeling a little stale lately. Never considered Carnival before but looks good.
That’s amazing!! Wow the world cruise! That’s going to be incredible!! You’ll have to let us know how that goes, and also if you like MSC and virgin! They’re on our list!!
I have been on disney, royal, NCL, carnival and in Nov, princess. I would not cruise again on NCL due to a horrible exp. I love both carnival and Royal as of now. Excited to try Princess.
Oh wow that’s the first negative experience I’ve heard about with NCL, everyone always raves about them. I’m sad to hear you had a bad experience there. Let us know what you think of princess! It’s on our list!! ☺️
My boss went on prima. He hated it. Hated NCL. Yet he booked a next cruise or whatever they call it, on ncl lol. So I took it with a grain of salt haha
Im open to try another cruise line but all 7 of my cruises have been with royal. I just have a such a good time every time that ive been hesitant to try others and worried i wouldnt enjoy it as much. I will try carnival probably sometime next year but i only want to go on the mardi gras, celebration or jubilee.
We were in the same boat! We had only down Royal, and with the diamond status it made it even harder to want to branch out. But we really enjoyed celebration and jubilee on carnival, and we are trying celebrity and Norwegian later this year for a Christmas/ new years cruise! We definitely love Royal, but we are also curious to see what else is out there and if anyone does it better! We will keep you posted! Let us know if you do carnival and let us know what you think!
Great video! You’re my type of travelers - adventurous and relaxing! What excursion did you select in Costa Maya? When I clicked the link there were 3 ruin excursions. I’ll be doing the same ship and locations in Dec 2025.😊
Oh that’s so awesome!! We booked through the Native Choice and we selected the Chacchoben Extreme Tour option! There was also another option that did a lunch with locals and we would 100% try that one too! Have the best time in December!!! 🍻🫶🏼
We are slowly becoming loyal too royal after doing Norwegian and Royal cruises. We love all the entertainment options on Royal. Our priorities on a cruise are good food, and good entertainment and Royal seems too fill the bill. I am intrigued about trying an excel class ship. A little concerned about video's showing long lines too the food places including your videos.
Our parents both really enjoy Norwegian as well! We are trying our first one this December! Longer lines are definitely unavoidable on the bigger ships just because of the sheer amount of people. But it’s worth giving it a try! Celebration was an amazing ship for carnival and we didn’t notice the lines were as long, likely because jubilee was a brand Beltran’s new ship, so it was fully booked!
@@ryanandkala It's hard to choose one. But I like the Mardi Gras the best so far. Just got off the Jubilee in February and I guess I like that class of ship.
When we are outside we use the GoPro, when we are inside we use a Nikon (I believe a z30) Some days the wind is just too strong for the puff mic lol! Appreciate you and so glad you’re liking the videos!!! ♥️♥️
@@ryanandkala that’s awesome! Thank you 😊 we will be going on carnival jubilee in September 🥰 this will be my daughters first cruise she will be 3 I’m super excited to see her face 🥹
@brandibishop2142 omg I wish I could have experienced a ship like this as a kid! Even as an adult I’m so excited so I can’t even imagine how excited they will be!! Have an amazing time!!! ♥️ If you’re looking to record some of the cruise for memories we really recommend the go pro, it’s super easy to use not too many functions or settings it’s pretty point and shoot ☺️
We booked this directly through Native Choice- I believe Ryan put the link in the description. The resort we went to is closed but they allow excursions to use their beach area. It was called the paradise beach 7 colours lagoon.
Usually we check if there’s any signs, if not we try and lift it off where there’s not a lot of people. If there’s any security or police or anything around we usually just ask to be safe. Ryan applies for permits to fly his drone so usually we know if it’s allowed or not. We never went to chance it and lose it though!
No problem! Drones are harder and harder to use these days. Our best advice is to apply for the drone permits it will tell you if there’s any helicopters or planes around or how high you can fly etc. and when in doubt just either hide so no one sees you flying it or ask haha!
So we have been on 6 cruises and they have all been with Carnival and all different ships. From the low end ships to the brand new ships so we kind of grown with Carnival. I noticed you guys were the other way around. I am currently planning to take a Royal cruise with Symphony of the Sea later this year. My question is did you feel weird when you first got on The Celebration being that was your first time not on Royal Ship and how long did the adjustment period take. I also won't ask who's better because i'm sure they all provide a fun time and it's all about experiences but I will ask, Do you enjoy the differences in the two?
It did take a minute for us to get our bearings being on a new ship! But honestly it was so exciting. Getting to experience something new was so cool! Each of them have their ways that they are better than the other and we plan to do a video on that! But once you figure out the small nuances cruising is pretty similar across the board ☺️
@@ryanandkala right that’s what I figured lol. Embarkation day and a few drinks by sea day 1 we cruising we smiling no care in the world let’s have fun haha. Thank you for your videos your energy and aura. 🛫🙏🏽🙏🏽🛳️🥃🍹🍸🍻🏖️🏝️🥃🍻🍸🍹🛬
I just got off the celebration and played deal or no deal. 2 of my cards hit the $30 free play and $50 cash. The next game I had 1 card hit for the bingo card so all in all it was worth it for me.
So far I have only cruised with Royal. What is your opinion of Carnival? is it comparable to Royal such as service and atmosphere? I am really thinking on Carnival because of the better pricing. Will I be making a mistake?
We plan on doing a comparison video comparing utopia of the seas to jubilee so they’re both their newest ships. But honestly we had an absolute blast on both the celebration and jubilee. We have another carnival planned for 2025 as well. We really enjoy their lower prices, cheaper beverage package and better drinks! They are definitely giving Royal a run for their money! You would not be making a mistake, that’s for sure. But I’d suggest choosing one of the newer ships!
This is advice we received from other carnival cruisers. They said they enjoyed the newer and bigger ships more than the smaller ones. There are others that said they prefer the smaller ships but the majority of people have said they like the bigger ones It depends what you want from the trip. If you want on board activities I suggest the bigger ships. If you want better destinations and less lineups, maybe a smaller ship is the way to go. ☺️
Re: Deal or no deal...we've resolved to never pay for it again. Its fun to watch, but we've lost way more than we've won. I think we did win $25 casino fun play last time, but that didn't pay back what we spent on the cards.

Ahhh! I just noticed I made a mistake showing the wrong bar while we were in Grand Central. It wasn't the alchemy bar, Oopsies! 😅

I was kind of having Ryan and Kala withdrawals for a sec 😂 I pretty much binge watched all your videos and got all caught up.
Haha 😂 omg thank you for all the support! Glad you're enjoying the videos 😊

The food on carnival is so good! So many free options! 🤤

I have only been on Celebrity once and loved it. River cruises are my thing. So relaxing and fun.
We are trying celebrity this winter and I think again in 2025!
We want to try a river cruise too!
OMG you guys-that show looked amazing!!!! Great video as usual!! 😍
It was definitely one of my favourites! I love spooky stuff so this was right up my alley haha!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it ♥️
I played deal or no deal on the celebration.. it was fun. We won the $50 casino credit too.. I’m all about bingo and deal or no deal lol
The deal or no deal and the family feud on carnival are unreal!! So well done!
I was to the Mayan Ruins when I was in Belize City in Nov on the Magic. They were beautiful. Cannot wait to see yours. ❤
Seeing ruins is so cool! It’s hard to imagine how they were built so long ago without all the tools we have now!
Very cool checking out the ruins! So much more to some of these places than just a nice beach or cocktails (although definitely love those too!)
We used to literally only go to beaches… the vlogs have really brought us out of our comfort zone and made us do more exploration!
Some of these places have so much history and beauty beyond just the beaches, it’s been amazing to explore them! ♥️

Thanks for watching!! ☀️🍻😎
Ncl is a great cruise line been on 3. I have no complaints great service, drinks and food. Trying celebrity in October then royal Caribbean in February. Super excited!

I think you'll love it. The sunset bar is great, as is the martini bar.
Can’t wait!!! 🍸 🌅

We wish we could have stayed longer there it was gorgeous! ♥️
What's the name of the resort?
@williampilar2448 I believe it was the bacalar resort! 7 colours lagoon
Great videos … love the all inclusive excursions! Drink , chill , eat …. Cheers !!

It’s coming up so fast we aren’t even close to prepared for it haha but we are so exited!!
Can’t wait to try NCL in December too!
We like paradise beach in Cozumel very nice inclusive
We usually do Nachi, but it was full so we tried paradise and we loved it!! 😍
I would have never left those over the water cabanas!

They were definitely worth seeing! If you book the native choice tour we recommend doing the one with the family feast at a locals house. Apparently it was amazing!
You guys are so much fun! Another great vlog.
Thanks so much!! 🥰
Hey, great vid as always! Cant wait till the paradise beach vid. September we are going there and even got the day bed. Just because 😂. No real reason haha!

Im open to try another cruise line but all 7 of my cruises have been with royal. I just have a such a good time every time that ive been hesitant to try others and worried i wouldnt enjoy it as much. I will try carnival probably sometime next year but i only want to go on the mardi gras, celebration or jubilee.
We were in the same boat! We had only down Royal, and with the diamond status it made it even harder to want to branch out. But we really enjoyed celebration and jubilee on carnival, and we are trying celebrity and Norwegian later this year for a Christmas/ new years cruise!
We definitely love Royal, but we are also curious to see what else is out there and if anyone does it better!
We will keep you posted!
Let us know if you do carnival and let us know what you think!
Great video! You’re my type of travelers - adventurous and relaxing! What excursion did you select in Costa Maya? When I clicked the link there were 3 ruin excursions. I’ll be doing the same ship and locations in Dec 2025.😊
Oh that’s so awesome!! We booked through the Native Choice and we selected the Chacchoben Extreme Tour option! There was also another option that did a lunch with locals and we would 100% try that one too!
Have the best time in December!!! 🍻🫶🏼
@@ryanandkala Thank you. I am so excited 😆.
I see that you have a few drone shots, were you allowed to fly your drone at all the ports
I wasn't able to fly it in the ports for the most part but I was able to once we got to our destination (except at the ruins it's not allowed)
Do you happen to remember what bar you ordered the smokey watermelon Rita from?
I want to say it was from the flavour-town bar near the patio pool but I can’t 100% remember
We are slowly becoming loyal too royal after doing Norwegian and Royal cruises. We love all the entertainment options on Royal. Our priorities on a cruise are good food, and good entertainment and Royal seems too fill the bill. I am intrigued about trying an excel class ship. A little concerned about video's showing long lines too the food places including your videos.
Our parents both really enjoy Norwegian as well! We are trying our first one this December!
Longer lines are definitely unavoidable on the bigger ships just because of the sheer amount of people. But it’s worth giving it a try! Celebration was an amazing ship for carnival and we didn’t notice the lines were as long, likely because jubilee was a brand Beltran’s new ship, so it was fully booked!
20 cruises so far and all with Carnival.
Wow that’s amazing!! 🤩
Do you have a favourite ship?
@@ryanandkala It's hard to choose one. But I like the Mardi Gras the best so far. Just got off the Jubilee in February and I guess I like that class of ship.
@sntn1 we need to like that class of carnival ships too! We haven’t tried any of the smaller classes yet though!
Nice video! What drone are you filming with?
We use a DJI mini 2 for the drone
What kind of camera do y’all use? Really nice and great quality and great sound even when it was windy wasn’t too terrible at all
When we are outside we use the GoPro, when we are inside we use a Nikon (I believe a z30)
Some days the wind is just too strong for the puff mic lol!
Appreciate you and so glad you’re liking the videos!!! ♥️♥️
@@ryanandkala that’s awesome! Thank you 😊 we will be going on carnival jubilee in September 🥰 this will be my daughters first cruise she will be 3 I’m super excited to see her face 🥹
@brandibishop2142 omg I wish I could have experienced a ship like this as a kid! Even as an adult I’m so excited so I can’t even imagine how excited they will be!!
Have an amazing time!!! ♥️
If you’re looking to record some of the cruise for memories we really recommend the go pro, it’s super easy to use not too many functions or settings it’s pretty point and shoot ☺️
What was the name of the resort you went to in this video? Also, Did you book through carnival or a private excursion company?
We booked this directly through Native Choice- I believe Ryan put the link in the description.
The resort we went to is closed but they allow excursions to use their beach area. It was called the paradise beach 7 colours lagoon.
How do you book the resort? I saw the website but didn’t see anything about the resort.
Use this: www.thenativechoice.com/tours/chacchoben-extreme-tour
This should work :)
Hey y’all great video. Just curious do you have to ask anyone to fly the drone or do you just fly it on your own without asking around
Usually we check if there’s any signs, if not we try and lift it off where there’s not a lot of people. If there’s any security or police or anything around we usually just ask to be safe.
Ryan applies for permits to fly his drone so usually we know if it’s allowed or not. We never went to chance it and lose it though!
@@ryanandkala thanks for the info and responding. Appreciate it
No problem! Drones are harder and harder to use these days. Our best advice is to apply for the drone permits it will tell you if there’s any helicopters or planes around or how high you can fly etc.
and when in doubt just either hide so no one sees you flying it or ask haha!
So we have been on 6 cruises and they have all been with Carnival and all different ships. From the low end ships to the brand new ships so we kind of grown with Carnival. I noticed you guys were the other way around. I am currently planning to take a Royal cruise with Symphony of the Sea later this year. My question is did you feel weird when you first got on The Celebration being that was your first time not on Royal Ship and how long did the adjustment period take. I also won't ask who's better because i'm sure they all provide a fun time and it's all about experiences but I will ask, Do you enjoy the differences in the two?
It did take a minute for us to get our bearings being on a new ship! But honestly it was so exciting. Getting to experience something new was so cool!
Each of them have their ways that they are better than the other and we plan to do a video on that!
But once you figure out the small nuances cruising is pretty similar across the board ☺️
@@ryanandkala right that’s what I figured lol. Embarkation day and a few drinks by sea day 1 we cruising we smiling no care in the world let’s have fun haha. Thank you for your videos your energy and aura. 🛫🙏🏽🙏🏽🛳️🥃🍹🍸🍻🏖️🏝️🥃🍻🍸🍹🛬
@jmatic24 exactly! Haha!
Thanks so much!! ♥️🫶🏼🥂
Doing this trip in October. Did you book the excursion thru carnival or on your own?
We booked it on our own. It’s usually cheaper that way! The link to the one we booked is in the video description ☺️
I just got off the celebration and played deal or no deal. 2 of my cards hit the $30 free play and $50 cash. The next game I had 1 card hit for the bingo card so all in all it was worth it for me.
Wooo hoooo congrats!!! 🥳 👏🏼
Great win!
Did you book it through the cruise ship?
No this one we booked on our own. The link to the excursion we took is in the description for the video 😊
So far I have only cruised with Royal. What is your opinion of Carnival? is it comparable to Royal such as service and atmosphere? I am really thinking on Carnival because of the better pricing. Will I be making a mistake?
We plan on doing a comparison video comparing utopia of the seas to jubilee so they’re both their newest ships.
But honestly we had an absolute blast on both the celebration and jubilee. We have another carnival planned for 2025 as well.
We really enjoy their lower prices, cheaper beverage package and better drinks!
They are definitely giving Royal a run for their money!
You would not be making a mistake, that’s for sure. But I’d suggest choosing one of the newer ships!
@@ryanandkala Thank you for the info, but why would you say to pick a newer ship?
This is advice we received from other carnival cruisers. They said they enjoyed the newer and bigger ships more than the smaller ones.
There are others that said they prefer the smaller ships but the majority of people have said they like the bigger ones
It depends what you want from the trip. If you want on board activities I suggest the bigger ships. If you want better destinations and less lineups, maybe a smaller ship is the way to go. ☺️
@@ryanandkala Thank you so much!!
Where did you book your excursions?
We have the link to the excursions in the video description! This one I booked with native choice
@@ryanandkala Thanks!
@jeanniebelew4652 no problem!!! 😌
Re: Deal or no deal...we've resolved to never pay for it again. Its fun to watch, but we've lost way more than we've won. I think we did win $25 casino fun play last time, but that didn't pay back what we spent on the cards.
Same!! I enjoyed watching it more when I didn’t play my own card!
