Review summary

My favorite part was Aruba, and the Canal, and the room was great. Cut backs with the dining and menu changes where a disappointment. Stopping at Colon area felt unsafe, and there was nothing to see at Porta Lemon Costa Rica. We went right pass some islands on the way home which would of been much nicer stops.

menu changes and the ala cart charges were not a positive change, and no appetizers in the main dining room! Come on...

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Patrick did a great job, but his work load was way to big to give us the service that we expected, dining staff service was ok but not what I have had in the past, seems they have lost some of their assistants they made things run smoothly
