Crown Princess Review
Rating by category
Additional details
This was a really fun, nice cruise. Of course, it helped that we had great weather and very calm seas. I have done this cruise two times previously in the month of April, and the weather this time was much better.
There is so much to do on the Crown Princess, or you can just relax with plenty of lounge chairs, both in the sun and in the shade. They also now have a 15 minute rule for saving deck chairs and loungers. I really didn't see any chairs being saved on this trip. We had three days at sea, and there was still plenty of space for everyone.
The Sanctuary is a very nice option as well. $10 per person for 4 hours.
Cabin Review
Oceanview (obstructed view)
Princess ships do a very good job in the cabin layouts. I actually chose the same stateroom as the one we had 10 months ago. Even though it was an obstructed ocean view, the window is large and it located above a storage container, not a lifeboat. There is quite a view from this cabin.
I especially like the closet/dressing area right off the bathroom. It gives a person plenty of privacy, while allowing for access to shelves and closet.
Appreciate that the safe uses a password instead of a credit card, etc. It was much faster and easier to use.
