This was our 17th cruise and the longest one my wife and I have taken. It was also our first (but not last) cruise with Princess. It was wonderful! The Ports visited were beautiful and the excursions were great. Everyone on the ships staff treated us like we were special. The ship was beautiful and completely relaxing. We had a mini-suite that was all we hoped for and more. It was very spacious and comfortable with a nice balcony. Food was great and the specialty restaurants were outstanding. We took in a couple of the entertainment events during the cruise and they were both very professional and completely entertaining. The photo people were very good, my wife does not like her picture taken yet we left the ship with more photos than any other cruise we have taken. We even had our picture taken in the Platinum Studio, which was an amazing experience, and ordered a spectacular black and white photo that will be prominently displayed in our living room. We were totally surprised at how fast and easy both embarkation and debarkation was. I highly recommend this cruise and cruise line. We have already booked and Alaskan cruise with Princess for 2016.
Cabin was spacious clean and very comfortable. during one of our excursions the crew put new carpeting in our cabin and we were a little hesitant about it, but when we got back the carpet was in and the room was clean and everything was just as we left it. Great job!
