This was our first cruise (we're active seniors) and already we are talking about the next one. I thought that everything was wonderful. The entertainment was superb and I thought very professionally presented. The food was varied and plentiful. I loved eating breakfast on the outdoor aft buffet restaurant on deck 12.The staff were always joyous and polite and made us feel like VIPs....kudos to Caroll G. From Jamaica. In 16 days we never ran out of things to do on the Pearl. We met some folks who we hope to share a future cruise with. Only one piece of constructive criticism...replace the ping pong tables....they are badly rusted and downright dangerous...I witneseds one of them collapse and nearly hurt someone. Oh, if you could find another place for the kids to play basketbal,l that would really be appreciated by the vast majority who wanted more time on the tennis court. Thank you...we'll be back!
