Sail Date: Jan 2015

We had mixed feelings when the Royal Princess debuted. We have long felt Princess needed to modernize their décor and shipboard amenities, but were disappointed to hear of the small balconies and cabin sizes. Unlike many, we DO enjoy spending time in our cabin, particularly on the balcony so this issue was of concern to us. Despite this, these 40-ish Platinum Princess cruisers decided to set sail for a 10 day trip to the Caribbean.

The Cabin:

Yes, the balcony is indeed small. Much smaller than any ship we’ve ever sailed on. With that said, it was still comfortable to sit out there and have a drink and watch the waves. We were sailing with friends and we opened the partition between balconies which made it extra long, and with some manoeuvring we could move from balcony to balcony. This was not the deal breaker I had feared and with the modern décor and good storage, the small cabin was still quite nice. We loved the new TV, and all the on-demand features. Our stewardess Roselle was fantastic, very funny, and great at adjusting to our bizarre schedule, and finding time to slip into the room for a refresh.
