While we enjoyed our cruise we probably wouldn’t go on a ship as small as the Pearl again. The age was not an issue as it was renovated, it just felt like there were too many people for the size of the ship.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very easy getting processed.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The Moderno Churrascaria was very good. There was a good selection of food on the salad bar and the meats came out hot and everything we tried was delicious. The main dining room was good but the buffet was not good. Many of the proteins were dried out on a regular basis perhaps either overcooked or just sitting out too long. The cakes were just sheet cakes and were average.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
As a smaller ship than we’re used to it is hard to say if there were fewer activities because of the number of passengers but the bottom line is there wasn’t the number of options we were used to.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
Only the Legends in Concert show saved this from being one star. Very good show
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Excellent service too to bottom. We always felt that our business was valued.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Cleanliness was excellent but the ship felt too narrow. Again, this was a smaller ship than we were used to but it just felt a little tight in some areas.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
For an inside cabin for eleven days we never felt it was too small. It was always cleaned after we left the room which was nice
Ship tip
If you’re going to the buffet for breakfast or lunch and want a quieter experience go across to La Cucina
