Review summary

This cruise exceeded our expectations.  The captain, Tim Springer, made our cruise memorable and safe.  The ship was clean.  We had an ocean view room and it was very nice.  Our cabin attendant was very attentive and friendly.  There were plenty of activities to keep us busy.  We enjoyed Zumba, line dancing, the shows, art auction, chef's presentation and tour of the kitchen.  Our server and assistant were very attentive and friendly.  We also enjoyed the pool and walking around the promenade deck.  The only thing that annoyed us was the people that hog the chaise lounges.  One particular day there were no chairs available.  However, one chair had towels on it and no one showed up during the five hours we were there without a chair.

we took the Island Princess through the Panama Canal. it was a really nice trip and the ship was great. we have an Alaska trip planned on the same ship in June 2016. It has had some work done since our last cruise. I hear good and bad. I would go with the good. Usually unhappy people are the complainers and hard to satisfy. Happy, satisfied people just move on to the next adventure and often don't take the time to comment. Most of our fellow passengers were very happy and seemed to enjoy the trip. Thumbs up!!!
