Hi, We have been on 10 cruises, mostly Carnival. Two were on the old Ecstasy, and in our experience, they were great..The more you sail, the more you learn, like picking out a cabin that will be hopefully a quiet area.. I would study the deck plans , and find a cabin that is not over or under areas like a night club, or casino. I ALWAYS pick a deck that has only cabins above and below..I prefer mid ship to somewhat aft. You may also discover later that ship size is not all what it is. We just went on the new Magic in November, and it was really crowded. We usually get a balcony, but if you like to be on the open deck a lot, you can save a bunch by taking an inside or ocean view...If you need any additional help, send me a private message. We are going in March as well on RC Mariner to Roatan and Belize. I did your cruise in 1986 on the old Carnival Tropicale, and loved it. Cabo is beautiful, but be careful of dangerous currents.My daughter has a condo there, and goes annually.As far as safety, I don't think you will have a problem. We walk in the old part of Cozumel all the time by ourselves.Have a great cruise
