Sail Date: Nov 2006

Beautiful ship-room was big with two chaises and two chairs outside-room is next to family unit which could be noisy in the morning and we are up late-first stop was Labadee-mostly rained and felt swarmed by all the vendors-would not go back-Aruba sunny and great same with Curacao-Panama Canal was terrific and very interesting-Puerto Limon was rainy and very impoverished. This trip was rough sailing but very enjoyable. The lounges. are just beautiful and offer many types of music. The entertainment was not bad fifty percent of the time but found the lounge entertainment to be better in most cases. The indoor solarium and spa limits children to certain hours which makes the lap pool very usable. The main pool is small but there is a children's pool also with a water slide and game rooms. The staff and food were exceptional-dining was great and so was cafeteria style food. One objection was that it seemed that if you didn't ask for well drinks at the bars-you were billed for more expensive drinks. The tip is included so I felt that some bartenders charged more for a better tip.The front desk seemed on the defensive for in-general questions--as if I or anyone in my party were going to ask for something like a room change etc. Overall, everything was great and I would do this ship again but not this itinerary.
