Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The variety and quality of food was terrific. As fish eaters we had some not-so-good dinners as they fish was way overcooked. However that was probably because it took time from the kirtchen to the table.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Very very good. Some comedians who were terrific

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Truly excellent! My wife does not tolerate garlic very well and most everything seemed to contain some garlic. Maitre d' Henrique brought her the days menu and they selected dishes that would be garlic free!!!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It took us a while to get our bearings on board, the front elevator only went to deck 7 and the mid elevator went up to 8. You had to learn which way to go to gert there easily. A bit confusing

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We opted for a balcony cabin with a bathtub and it was very nice indeed. We were well looked after and the cabin was always clean

We took atour here and enjoyed thoroughly. The highlight being the visit to a coffee plantation that also produced the finished coffee products. We were up as far as 6000 feet.

Huatulco, Mexico

We just wandered around on foot in the shore area of shops and retaurants

Pros: the passage through the panama Canal

Cons: we eat a lot of fish and the fish onboard was usually overdone and dry.
