Review summary

Nice cruise and a really good value as cruises go. Fun, safe and memorable. Outstanding crew and staff. As far as the food goes, well, I gained five pounds.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Organized. Fast. Friendly. Systematic.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food is always available. Steak, chicken, pasta and vegetarian dishes on lunch and dinner buffets. Great burgers, tacos and pizza. Cold beer with fast friendly service. Dining was always immaculate, as was the whole ship.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Witnessed many other winners in the casino. Pools are crowded but clean. Many activities for kids.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Comedy acts were great with PG early shows and R late night shows.

Children's Programs

No kids.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Lu is a rockstar in Housekeeping. Working hard when first I woke, and working hard when I retired. ALWAYS a smile and kind words. She remembered my name immediately. All the service was amazing, yet still Yu stood out as the best.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
You WILL NOT find a cleaner better maintained ship on any cruise line. The Panorama is relatively new, and they are keeping it that way.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
You must get a balcony if just for the sunrise and sunsets. The bed was awesome and the pillows are great. HOT water always available. CBS News was really the only bummer on the entire cruise.

Ship tip

Walk the entire ship on your first day. I was still finding new things several days in.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

5 out of 5
Close t airport. Shuttle service was the best idea.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

5 out of 5
It's a good thing I didn't discover Cabo while in college. A rather "adult" port.

Mazatlan, Mexico

2 out of 5
This is a good day to stay on board and enjoy the sunshine and pool. Mazatlan isn't what it used to be.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
Some beautiful architecture and fun scenic walks. Great place to dip in the ocean.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
So organized and fast!
