Slightly small for an interior but it grew on us.

The Jacuzzi and onboard activities were empty during port days. An excellent way to bypass the line/crowd.

Thanks for your review of the Panorama. You are so correct to have proper expectations on not just the MDR, which I think is very good, to the buffet. I have never been in a Cruise ship where I didn’t find something good to eat. Not everything is to my liking, but they are preparing for thousands of guests.
