This was our fifth cruise on Princess. Our previous four cruises had been to the Caribbean (3 cruises) and to Alaska (1 cruise). We have also been passengers on Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Oceania and Costa. We tend to choose our cruises based on itinerary and ports offered. This cruise had a great itinerary and what made it special for a British Isles cruise were the stops in Liverpool, ...
First of all our travel director made all of the arrangements for this cruise, there was a group of 42 of us. Sandy did everything, all we had to do was show up at appointed times and we were whisked away from our comfortable cabins and into the British countryside. Our on board experiences were what we expected, food was mostly first rate, shopping with shipboard credit was fun, attending the ...
Only sailed twice before on P&O so experience is limited with other cruise lines
However, overall I must say that in comparison with Caribbean Princess, P&O have the edge and we probably wouldn’t sail with Caribbean again
We chose Caribbean as they were sailing around Britain and going to places we hadn’t visited before in Britain and the itinerary looked good for us.
This was an American ...
The main attraction was the places visited.. we are Princess Platinum.
Three cruises in 2017... Princess, Holland, Royal. Princess was inferior.
Crew is good... all of the senior officers were absent for the whole cruise except for the introductions night.
Three dinner meals got complaints from our table. The service was good; the food was not.
The entertainment was poor. The ...
I chose this cruise for 2 reasons. First to celebrate my 60th birthday and secondly because of the itinerary. There were 7 people in our party. From previous reviews of this ship we were expecting to board an old, tired ship with poor food. Well, my experience couldn't be further away from that and was very happy with the whole experience. My wife and I had an unobstructed ocean view cabin which ...
This cruise was chosen for us to complete our Northern Europe adventures. Embarkation went well and our room was ready and greeted with a big smile from our Stewart John. So now for our ritual for first day after being on a pre-cruise trip to Iceland, laundry. OK! Who took away the second Laundry room, 1 Laundry room for the whole floor, Yikes. On this trip we booked some excursions through ...
Crew was lackluster like they were really tired, lots of repairs being done, long lines at custoner service because of complaints (no hot water for 4 days, lost luggage for one week which was mostly Princess' inability to communicate with airline and more), balcony cabin really showing wear and tear - my husband fixed a couple things, nowhere near enough seating at shows, dinner food in top deck ...
Since we had never been to the British Isles and have cruised Princess several times, it was an easy decision to choose this cruise. After the numerous negative reviews of the Caribbean Princess, I had some trepidation prior to boarding. Thankfully we experienced almost none of the issues reported by others and thoroughly enjoyed our time on the ship.
For the first time, we did not select a ...
This is the 1st negative review I have ever written, after ~14 cruises (1st time on Princess celebrating our 15 yr wedding anniv.). This is the 1st time we were treated dishonestly & the room was represented so unethically. We paid Princess Cruises $4,482.99 for a "Guarantee Unobstructed Oceanview" room, exact title of the purchase. Our room was obstructed by columns, railing, & a full walkway in ...
We are frequent cruisers, this was our 19th cruise. After reading the many reviews on this site, we had pretty low expectations for the cruise overall but could not find another ship that did this itinerary at this time. The first thing we did right was upgrade to Club Class. I believe because of this our dining experience was markedly different from others we knew traveling on this cruise and ...
