We chose this cruise mainly based on the itinerary but also our only previous cruise experience had been with Princess on an Alaskan cruise and we had a great time. Overall we had a wonderful trip and really didn't have any of the negative experiences/issues I had read about on this site. We had one of the club class mini suites which has a more central location on the ship but the main perk was ...
Recently returned from the Crown Princess Grand Mediterranean Cruise 10/23-11/3/18 Barcelona to Rome
Booked this cruise about 6 months out with free gratuity sale. This was our 17th cruise on various cruise lines (NCL, Princess, Celebrity and Royal Caribbean). First time to this dream destination Mediterranean Cruise! We are two couples. Used Princess EZ Air for the first time and was happy ...
We travel with Princess frequently and picked this cruise because we could celebrate our golden wedding anniversary during the cruise. The itinerary was similar to the cruise we took 10 years ago, with a few different stops. We did the traditional dining and had a wonderful time with the 3 other couples at our table.
The ship was in great shape and we had upgraded to a full suite which was ...
The ship is not one of their newer ships but I would still sail on it again. Bedding was very comfortable. The food and service was very good and could be compared to any very good restaurant in NYC. Entertainment was exceptional and always tied in with the city we visited.
Loved the idea that they had two sides to the decks outside. One side showed movies and movies under the stars at night ...
We picked the Mediterranean as a destination for the history and the variety. Our kids (19 and 17) love Roman and Greek history and mythology. This was a great way for our family to have a trip before both kids head off to college in the fall. We went with my sister-in-law and a family friend (making our party 6 in total). We boarded in Barcelona for a two week cruise to Rome and Athens.
We ...
This is a lovely ship but not the pride of the fleet,with so many new ships coming in to service the crown lacks a main atrium area,the atrium at present is to small.And the layout of the ship is very poor ,the general areas are confusing to access from the lifts and stairs mainy times you are doubling back on yourself to go from a to b.The cruise was a sightseeing cruise with mainy ...
Chose this cruise as it visited the Greek islands and started and ended in my favorite cities in Europe of Barcelona and Rome
Food was very good and better in taste than the newer and much larger Royal Princess that I was on year before
The ship never felt crowded and actually thought it wasn't full until I saw it was sold out. Never wait for anything, buffet was small and limited compared ...
Took this cruise to celebrate our anniversary. We had been on the Crown Princess before and liked the size of the ship and the itinerary it offered (Mediterranean cruise Barcelona to Rome). Our cabin (D217) was fresh (new bedding, new couch, new tile in the bathroom) and was spotlessly clean! Had the best cabin steward ever (Jose) who was always "one step ahead" of us! Since this was a ...
We chose this ship based on a recommendation from a family member who loves Crown Princess. We loved the itinerary and the spacing of the 3 sea days as well as the ports of call. Everything with this cruise eithe rmet or seriously exceeded our expectations.
We flew into the departing port of Barcelona and arrived at 9:00am Sunday morning 4/15/18. Had 2 full days/nights in Barcelona before ...
Always have a great experience with Princess. We wanted to see the countries in the Mediterranean. We love the fine dining, and the service we received was excellent. They always have great entertainment, and the ship had just gotten a retrofit.
This was our fifth cruise with Princess, and we are always impressed. We have been able to enjoy Suites on all but one of our cruises, and that adds so ...
