I rated the cruise as Very Good, but it was between Average and Very Good. As with most cruises, there were good and bad experiences, and some that were OK, but could do with a re-think. We booked late in the year, and got an inside cabin at a very good price.
We had Anytime Dining and could generally get a table (around 7.45 pm). We liked our waiters on the second night so we asked to be ...
After living in Papua New Guinea in the 1970s, my husband and I decided do a cruise there to visit other areas we had not seen. This cruise left from Brisbane to Papua New Guinea and back to Brisbane.
The cruise terminal at Brisbane is archaic and extremely hot in summer, especially when you are lining up for ages, which we did.
The smaller ship experience on the Sea Princess was great. We ...
My wife and I chose this cruise for a number of reasons, the itinerary which took us to some pretty remote and little known regions of the pacific,it’s an easy flight from Sydney to Brisbane also a number of sea days is always a bonus.
The embarkation process was seamless as was disembarkation.
Our stateroom was on Baja Deck 10 forward and it was a surprise to see the older style of balcony ...
This was the 2nd time we enjoyed this cruise, last was 2015. Great opportunity to see different things ashore. Pity that it was a bit rough this time but no one can control the weather!
Have sailed on Sea Princess many times & wish they would upgrade the televisions to movies on demand. Also be fabulous if she had the 24 hour International Cafe.
Legends for the Elite evenings just didn’t ...
Always wanted to visit Hawaii and Tahiti. The ship should be commended on their staff. They are the greatest asset.
The food was very good, with heaps of choice.
Entertainment was poor and somewhat disorganised.
The tours in Suva, Pago Pago and Moorea, were great value and very well organised and presented. One of our Hawaiian tours to the crater and ocean centre was very good and well ...
We really enjoy Princess, in particular the level of service experienced onboard is 1st class.
Food was excellent, the Staff, as usual were excellent. The Cruise Director, Jody was innovative and met with Guests every sea day for a Coffee/Chat. This is the first time I had experienced something along that line. Her Team also were energetic and involved with the Guests. Our Captain, Tony ...
We did a Auckland to Sydney cruise on the Maasdam just prior to Christmas last year.
Needed to go to sea again(yes I am getting hooked) and found a great deal for a Brisbane to Auckland via South Pacific so jumped at it.
Booked a outside cabin and a few days before we left we’re given a free upgrade to a balcony suite.woopee.
Embarkation was as smooth as we had come to expect,this was our ...
I chose this cruise as a short break as for people that are time poor these are really good cruises to jump on. The ship itself was nice and I found it to be a younger demographical for age pax is it was repositioning. I found the food in both the dining room and the buffet to be really nice and even though I didnt get to see a show on board there was lots of other things to do. I really enjoyed ...
We were supposed to cruise on the 24th February, but a cyclone off the Brisbane coast stopped that. We managed to get out of port on the 27th instead. Great communication from Princess but alas we missed the South Island of NZ as a result. But NZ put on its very best weather for us. It was like Queensland, beautiful one day, perfect the next.
I loved the new beds they’ve been on about. Very ...
First time traveling to New Zealand and first time on Princess line. Unexpected problem at the start and cruise cut short by 3 days due to cyclone.. can't help the weather. Just myself and best friend on this trip.
Embarkation went smoothly as did disembarkation when we returned.
Entertainment was fantastic something for everyone.Especially one group in particular- Mosaic was their ...
