Is it the same cost per person if sharing a room? And is that cost just for the cruise or does it include the hotel for the evening prior?

All cruises base the fare on 2 people in a room. If you sail alone they charge you a premium. Often the cost of 2 people anyway.

KJ that is the cost per person (pp) and initial pricing to guage interest as stated above. Cost of hotel the night prior will be determined once we have met the participant threshold. Again, as stated once we are a go. Side excursion options will be presented. The hotel the night before will be basic, and just enough to get together, arrange portage to the dock for embarking in Galveston. We are also exploring the option of a night in a hotel upon arrival back to Galveston

However, there is an excursion available on Day 5 to the Johnson Space Center (@heysi ) and then a direct portage to the airport

There are a number of excursions that are available during the cruise including but not limited to ( full list once we are a go). But remember we are at sea for two days during the cruise so excursions will be at Puerto Costa Maya and Cozumel these include:
Cooking on site
Mayan temple visits
Swimming with Dolphins
And more

Excursions have a cost, however we are also working on a deal on those as well. I do not have costs on those yet as we are in Very preliminary stages

That being said, when budgeting keep in mind the following costs, but you will find that it is very compatible to what some folks spent going to Vegas

Cruise costs( includes all food and soft drinks (Drink alcohol) package may be extra)
Flight costs
Hotel cost (to be provided to you once avail)
Gratuity (usually paid at end of cruise)
Onboard activities ( most included) but items such as gift shop, spa, etc
optional Side excursions ( cost and avail will be provided once we are a go

Hope this helps
 
Please also note kids ARE welcome hence the reason we moved dates to June
 
Also note if we do not meet the number threshold we will still pursue however costs may change. We will cross that bridge if that occurs
