I planned this cruise when I was 14 and he was 15. When he asked me to go steady…I said “Yes” and if we are still together at 50 years we are going on “The Love Boat”. Just back from the Regal Princess! Dreams do come true!
Embarkation was a breeze. Our cabin L2** on the Lido deck was ideal! Just around the corner from the buffet, pools and activities! Our steward Shanal kept everything in top ...
My husband and I have been cruising about once a year since our honeymoon over 40 years ago. Princess is one of our favorite cruise lines. We’d been on six Princess cruises before this one, including two on the CB (Southern Caribbean in 2013 and British Isles in 2017). We obviously love cruising, and our mindset is to enjoy the many positive aspects of cruising and not let the glitches ruin things ...
I have been on several cruises in the Caribbean but I chose this one for the itinerary of Panama Canal and South America.
I was pleasantly surprised how fast embarkation process was, no wonder since I spent hours downloading all necessary documents and photos on the Princess App beforehand. My only complaint there was no wi-fi at the Terminal at Ft. Lauderdale so I could not open the App. I ...
This 10 day Panama Canal cruise was our 59th Princess cruise. Although we have also sailed on two other cruise lines, we keep coming back to Princess. The Caribbean Princes is 20 years old. but well maintained and clean. There always workers wiping painting, and sweeping to keep it that way. The only negative item due to age is only one dual electrical outlet in your main portion of your cabin and ...
Our first cruise was with Princess as a 'taster'. We love the cruise, and the line, and decided to cruise with them again.
We had a balcony stateroom the first time and for our second cruise chose a Club Class Mini Suite. We were not disappointed!
The Grand entered service in 1998, as to be ecpected, was showing some minor 'wear and tear', but nothing to write about. As a marine engineer I ...
Overall summary of the cruise: great weather, hard working staff, we made the best of the app, however, the food was mediocre at best unless you paid extra and a few surprises really got to us.
The other reviews that we read tempered our expectations and this ship had a serious norovirus outbreak a few weeks before we sailed. We arrived in good spirits on a soggy afternoon in Galveston. ...
This cruise was relatively inexpensive and convenient,since I live in Fort Lauderdale.The food and service has gone way down.The staff looked very unhappy.The best was my steward.I am very neat anyway.The food was cold and repetitive.I filled out the comment card and got no response.In the past they correct immediately.In general ,cruising will never be the same again.Had the spa pass for the ...
Chose cruise for destinations and celebration of 50th our anniversary and a 75 birthday.
Food very average. I compared it to a step up from the Golden corral. Formal night diner proportion and selection undesirable and embarrassing to us for the wait staff to serve it. Overall communication insufficient. No Port talks as to what to expect or what to do if not on an excursion. Pay as you go ...
The Crown Princess is an aging ship in need of some updating. Staterooms and public areas look past their prime. Some upholstery shabby, décor dated.
Dining room menu seems to be in rotation every few days. Nothing of interest or originality. Poorly prepared at times and often smothered with some gravy or sauce seemingly meant to cover up what lies beneath. One of the more common offerings ...
We chose this cruise as my retirement cruise. My wife and I met in Pago Pago 37yrs ago and wanted to go back. After spending enough time there,we figured this was the best way to revisit where we met. We live in Honolulu and have been to Apia, and Tahiti. We hadn't been to Moorea or Bora Bora before and later Bora Bora was cancelled and a extended Papeete stay was scheduled.
We booked on ...
