Cruise starting in Auckland the day after the city was flooded. Because of the bad weather we were not able to visit the Bay of Islands the next day. The ship is easy to navigate and having the medallion app makes life on board easy. The ship was in a excellent condition and our cabin mini suit was comfortable and clean. Both the food and entertainment were very good and we weren't bombarded with ...
We saw the cruise advertised in our city's newspaper and thought why not. I've been wheelchair bound for the last 3 years and this was our first attempt for me to travel again. It was also our first cruise.
From the moment we arrived at the dock, the staff couldn't be more helpful. Our bag was taken and we were ushered through the embarkation process. Staff were on hand to help me aboard and ...
We have done over 30 cruises, with over 20 on Princess. This is our second cruise on the Royal Class ships. We do not like the new layout. Too big with over 4000 passengers. All our old favourite dance venues have disappeared including Explorers Lounge, Wheelhouse bar, Club Fusion and the Sky lounge. It seems these have been replaced by more cabins and restaurants. All the dancing on the Royal ...
we chose this cruise as we wanted to try a new ship in the princess line, and to experience NYE with family in New Zealand and catchup with my daughter in Melbourne. We overall enjoyed the cruise and thought the design of the ship beautiful but missed the sky walker bar, and other lounge areas that are on the older ships like Regal Princess, the marketplace was too small and food choices ordinary, ...
Chose this cruise as the timing was right for our time off work and had heard princess was a great cruise line. We have been on Celebrity and Carnival previous and my wife and I are in our late 30’s.
First impressions was this ship is huge.. and it is.. But at the same time it never really felt too full even though there was 4100 passengers. The only exceptions were the theatre and buffet at ...
My boyfriend wanted to go to Australia so we booked this cruise. New Zealand was amazing and so was Tasmania. We had a balcony room which was amazing for the Fiordlands even though the weather wasn't great that day it was still an amazing experience. We went a few days prior and spend some time in Auckland New Zealand which was a wonderful city and then spend a couple days in Sydney Australia as ...
I have sailed on Princess twice before and Always got exceptional service. Unfortunately it seems the bigger the ship the less service one gets. From the person selling the coffee cards to the dining and general staff, I was under the impression that either the staff were over worked or actually more like they just didn't care. I blame the management for this overall lack of ' friendlyness ' ...
I have never been on a cruise before and, I have to admit that I will never forget this experience.
The embarkation and disembarkation went very smoothly.
Our mini-suite room was great: comfortable bed, air-conditioned, safe box, minibar, movies on demand and the ensuite bathroom that was small but pleasant.
Anytime dining was just amazing. Lots of quality food options were available - ...

We chose this cruise for the destinations. We ( family of 5 ) are Platinum cruisers on Princess and frequent cruisers on many other lines.
We had two rooms on this cruise. A deluxe balcony and a mini suite.
REVIEW:
Embarkation and disembarkation went very smoothly.
SHIP:
This ship is way too small for the number of guests it serves. The Princess theater never had enough seats ...
