Cabin / Stateroom

Room was not clean. There were dust balls in several area including counter. After discussing with cabin steward he did clean and provided good service.

Ship tip

Get to know all the areas. Spend time in each open area. Get to know the staff. The adults only pool and bar was awesome for swimming, games, and drinks.

Ports of call

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

3 out of 5

We were able to dock but we decided not to go out on a tour. The town of Limon has very little to see and even less food and shopping.

Panama Canal (Cruise Into Canal)

1 out of 5

After clearing to dock, we received word a someone from the ship had called the news outlets and reported falsely that there were people onboard with Covid19, which was not true. After a wait the Health Secretary of Panama refused docking. It was certainly a betrayal felt by all. No one was sick!
