Service and Staff

A special "thanks' goes out to a waiter named Glen from the Philippines. He was professional & personable. He treated you as if you were a dear friend (even though you were just meeting him for the first time) and was genuinely glad to have you there.

I enjoyed the towel animals on my bed each day!

Ship tip

I personally enjoyed dining in the Summer Palace the best. The greeting I got from my waiter (Glen) on the first day set the tone. I was concerned because of my food allergies, that eating on board the ship might be a problem . He assured me that the staff would be able to accommodate me & they did.

I wish you'd had actually said something in your review. How was the food? What did you buy while shopping? Why were you on that cruise? 

  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.
