We chose this cruise based on traveling with friends who had Princess "status" and the itinerary of the cruise. This was our first Princess cruise, although we had cruised on other cruise lines. There were a few things we liked better on Princess (mattress comfort, size of balcony, height of balcony chairs). Then there were several things that we found off-putting to unacceptable.
Our cabin ...
We chose this cruise due to itinerary, timing and price. We went with another couple and booked balcony cabins side by side. Ours was R703. Great location. It was the first time I have ever been that high on a ship and that far aft and we had no problems with extra noise or vibration or anything else. We were right by the elevators but experienced no noise from that. It was such a good ...
My husband and I have cruised twice on Carnival, twice on Celebrity, once on Royal Caribbean and most recently in February 2018 on the Crown Princess. By far, the best cruise we have ever experienced is with the Crown Princess. My husband is not a big fan of cruising, because he gets sea sick. He cruises to make his wife happy. However, during our Crown Princess cruise, he made sure we put ...
The service was great , the cabins comfortable .Entertainment okay , trivia was hard The food in the dining room was good . But what I will remember the most was eating french toast for 4 days at the buffet for breakfast without a problem. Then having it and finding walnuts in it with no label. (Severe tree nut allergy ) I was sent a plate of chocolate with no label or explanation . Oh well my ...
We love leaving the Midwest in the winter and head to the Caribbean. This was a great trip! The Crown is going into Dry Dock for some upgrades and I am sure they will all be great upgrades. We were lucky and already had the new mattress and loved it. The crew was amazing and did everything they could to help. Horizon Court is still a downfall for Princess. After having been on the Regal and seeing ...
(Actually the 10-day Southern Caribbean Medley, leaving 1/29/18) We picked this cruise only a month in advance, based on the cruise length, itinerary and prior experience with Princess. We were not disappointed.
Strong winds made it unsafe to tender at Princess Cays, so our first port became the first of two consecutive sea days. No big deal, as we had only planned to spend the day on the beach ...
Last minute "Drop & Go" getaway from cool Florida weather.
We were assigned a Deluxe Balcony room as our usual choice of a mini-suite was sold-out.
For a ten-day Caribbean cruise, the room was adequate, with a small couch, but we missed the additional storage capability of the minis.
The first day, our stop at Princess Cay was wisely aborted by Captain Nick Nash (our current fave) due to ...
We chose the Royal Princess because of the Medallian program which was to have been ready for this cruise; however, a couple of weeks before the announcement came that it was not ready for roll out. The ship is beautiful, great production shows, service excellent, myriad of food choices in different venues and a much better layout for the Horizon Buffet. I missed the ability to walk around the ...
We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise to princess cay, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel.
The embarkation was smooth, the food was excellent, and the employees were always cheerful and helpful. We ate one night at the crown grill and had a superb steak dinner. We also enjoyed having several breakfasts in Sabatinis. It was nice to have a sit down breakfast with a waiter.. We also joined the ...
We are Elite members of Princess Loyalty so normally we pick Princess out of Ft. Lauderdale. We have been on the Regal many times, however each time we feel the service and quality of food and entertainment is not as good as it was when the ship first came out a few years ago. They have decreased the wait staff in the dining rooms and Anytime Dining is not any time. If you want to make a ...
