We loved the ports and the staff was very friendly and the entertainment was excellent. Food in the main dining room needs improvement. Some areas of the ship need upgrading.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food at the specialty restaurants was excellent. However, food at the main dining room was mediocre. It seems every time I cruise the food gets worse.

"Some areas of the ship need upgrading." Didn't they just go through a yard period?

Although I've only been aboard the Pearl around the Bahamas, Caribbean and Panama Canal, I've grown accustomed to her. Curious about her latest drydock, what's new and different. Check out my experiences with on my most recent solo cruise aboard her and see how they compare with yours--especially the food.
