Review summary

Just returned from 9 day sail on the Pearl. They say you can eat anytime you want. They do not tell you there may not be seat for you. If you wish to eat between 6 and 7:30 you must make reservations. If we wished to eat and get to the show you MUST make reservations.There is nothing like having the same staff take care of you everynight, not so on Pearl.Too many special restaurants taking more of your money.Long waits there also. Adult pool right on top of childrens pool. Other ships it has always been seperate.There is no comparison to Royal Carib. or Princess

Ship Quality

Very choppy layout.No main promanade to stroll.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Needed to call several times to get stateroom cleaned. Balcony was never cleaned until I called. On other cruises that was done daily and sliding doors were cleaned everyday. Heavy blankets on bed(good for Alaska not caribbean)Needed to put a/c on low in order to sleep with any cover at all.It looked like they never vacuumed properly.

Pros: Ports of call

Cons: Free style dining

Great weather and smooth sailing
