Cabin: Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

The on board experience was wonderful. It was definitely worth getting a room with a balcony for this trans canal cruise. The rooms are serviced regularly. The ship was clean, well cared for with little deferred maintenance. The staff is fabulous and very attentive.

Formal Dining room (Minstrel) was very good and my advice would be to have both lunch and breakfast there rather than the Windjammer (too frenetic) where everyone shovels food, there are no tables and is generally tacky.

The Spa and Gym area were well managed and well worth visiting, although over priced.

Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

First time with a balcony and loved, loved, loved it. However a smoker was next door which I could handle, but was out there CONSTANTLY smoking and hacking and coughing. They need to put these smokers in one area. Totally ruined my experience!!
