Review summary

Grand Caymen port was great - ease of water taxi usage and fantastic turtle sanctuary. Panama Canal was incredible! A huge cargo ship went right by our stateroom balcony. Did not get off in Costa Rica - port is still under construction and it was raining. Spa was incredible - I went twice it was so good! Casino was the best of all for us. The staff are the best! Food was yummy and serenity deck was so peaceful.
