We had gone through the Canal in 2014 and we wanted to do it again. Last time we had an Aft facing cabin and this time we did a forward facing. Two entirely different perspectives of the Canal. We had been on the Pearl before for an Eastern Caribbean and we really liked it then and, if anything, this time was better. Then entire crew were absolutely terrific. From the cabin steward to the bartenders to the wait staff, everyone was so friendly that it seemed like a big, happy family. We met some of the most terrific people on this cruise and everyone, and I mean everyone was having a good time and it was infectious.

We found the food to be delicious and presented well whether in the main or specialty dining venues. The buffet was very good, too. The entertainment was good, some better than others. We had dinner with the Hotel Director and the Cruise Director and really enjoyed that. Our Butler and Concierge were both super.

We simply cannot say enough good things about this cruise. We have already booked another cruise on the Pearl for next year to Alaska. It will be our second there, as well. We can't wait!~
