Review summary

Our goal was to make this cruise a relaxing and chill cruise unlike the other ones. We made sure we relaxed and took our time in doing things instead of rushing it through. This time we even did the water slide that we normally don't. So, In light of making it a relaxing trip, we spent hours in the water in Grand Turk and we had the best time!! The food and service in the MDR was superb! All around cruise was just excellent and I don't have any negative to give. Can't wait till our next cruise #panorama

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
MDR food and service were excellent! Our servers were very pleasant and continued to ask for Marko/Carlos as we were in Anytime Dining. Ask for them when you're on. The buffet is the buffet...ok food..nothing great nothing bad..

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We did the waterslide during our port in Amber Cove as we did not stay in this port and went back on ship. Pools are very small and no room to swim if people are in there. Looks like people were just wading in the pools and hanging out.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We love the entertainment on the ships that we're on. We try to enjoy ourselves with all the shows and chill.

Service and Staff

Our cabin steward and MDR servers did a superb job in ensuring we were taken care of...that's their job and they did it wonderfully!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Older ship and it was like the Victory where the 3rd and 4th decks were not accessible to the shops. You have to go up or down 1 floor and across to get to the main floors. We mainly used the stairway..

Cabin / Stateroom

Damn the bed and pillows were soooooooo comfortable that we slept so good we sometimes forgot the time. We love the inside rooms...

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Water is so clear...we stayed in the water for at least 3 hours without coming out...It was an awesome sight to see the ship right were we were swimming.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
We didn't get to see much of Old San Juan as we went to the Marriott and hung out at the pool and beach and had a $20 food/bvg credit so we ate lunch there. We stayed for 3 1/2 hours until we went back to port and did little sight seeing at the fort and did little shopping.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
Very nice scenery. We did the Mountain Top and Shopping. Tour guide took us up to the Banana Daiquiri and the lookout.. He took us to this little flea market place that all sold the same thing so we found this Hawaiian wear store across the corner and did some shopping there instead. The driver then took us back the port as we were ready to go back.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

2 out of 5
Got off ship and did some shopping and went back on ship after an hour and did waterslide.. We did not want to stay in port as we had a bad taste about this port..

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
