Sunday Dinner & Costume Party
Enjoy your day in Cozumel! There are options for everyone including beaches and resort visits by the day, shopping, snorkeling & diving, cave and eco tours, ATV rides and zip lines. Excursions generally leave early so no fitness classes this day. We recommend you book your excursion prior to our cruise via the Royal Caribbean website, so you don't wait in line on the ships concierge.

Bus Information
If you are looking for a quiet ride over to the Port of Tampa, our bus may not be for you. We call it the party bus and there may possibly be alcoholic beverages on the bus. Please bring garbage bags with you so we can keep the bus tidy for Steve.
People often ask if they can leave their cars in the studio parking lot while on the trip. We would suggest getting dropped off if possible, cars left in the studio parking lot over the weekend are at your own risk.

Cabin Questions
We are at the 6pm dining time and we sit together nightly. Your dining table will be on your room keycard from Royal Caribbean and we do our best to sit people together who have requested it. There are various table sizes in the dining room and sometimes we have to work with the area we have been assigned.
People often ask to sit with their favorite instructor so we often try to rotate each night where instructors are at different tables during the cruise. If we are short on space and this doesn't work out we will visit for dessert!
Cabin Questions
Saturday Cozumel Day
Cabin Questions
Can Non-Zumba Sarasota members join the cruise? Of course they can! People often ask if they can bring friends, children or spouses. Anyone is welcome to join us whether or not they want to do our fitness classes. We always need photographers and people to cheer us on! We are always happy to meet new friends they are most welcome!
Do we decorate doors? Sure, but just do it if you want to be found! Bring your door decor with you as well as tape.
Some suitcases arrive outside your cabin door sooner than others. Don't panic, they will arrive!

Saturday Cozumel Day
Many people opt to eat out in Cozumel during our day there and miss the 6pm dining on ship this eve. That's OK, do what works for you!
If you return from Cozumel late and want to try the 8pm dining, usually they have a lot of extra space at that dining hour. ***Please double check and make sure you will be returning to the ship on time from Cozumel!
We also have friends that stay onboard Saturday and enjoy the ships amenities while it's empty. Everything is your choice!
