Traveled with my Mom (60) me (35).  Arrived in Vancouver the day before the cruise and spent the day sightseeing with a rental car. Vancouver is a beautiful City with lots to see and do. Wish we had a few days here. We stayed at "The Hotel at Terminal City Club" which was right downtown and two blocks from Canada Place. We actually had a room that we could see 1/2 of the cruise terminal from. We were within walking distance to Gastown as well.

The next morning we awoke to see from our hotel room window the Sapphire Princess coming into the harbour. We walked with our luggage in tow the two blocks down to the Canada Place and we found the check in process to be very easy and quick. We found we were on board the Sapphire in no time. We had a balcony room and unlike our other cruises in the Caribbean, we were allowed to go directly to our room as soon as we boarded.

The ship was beautiful and clean the staff were very friendly and courteous. We had the early seating for supper (5:30pm) and actually found that to be a little troublesome as we were still in port at that time most days or there was something going on outside to see. If we did it over again we would either do the late seating or the any time dining. We found the dining room food to be very good and had the most amazing server by the name of Serafin, he alone was worth going to the dining room for. The best server I have had on any of my cruises so far. The food in the buffet was also very good.
