Galveston Gourmet Food Cruises Cruise Reviews

This was our first cruise and to be honest I was biased because I remember watching the show The Love Boat as a kid. The show made me want to try cruising and experience this sense of royalty and comfort. The real life experience was all I could hope for. The staff from every aspect was so friendly, welcoming and offered their services all the time. I didn’t even have to get my own drinks while ...

We usually cruise every year with a church related group, usually to the Caribbean. This was our first post COVID. This was our 5th cruise all with Princess, 3 of them previously were on Crown class ships so we knew what to expect. We had stateroom E726, a mini suite on Emerald Deck toward the stern. It was a good location as one set of stairs down you were on the promenade deck, and some of ...

I just got off a 7 day Caribbean cruise on the Ruby Princess out of Galveston. My adult son and I had an absolutely wonderful time. It was our first time on Princess. I bid on an upgrade from a Club Class Mini Suite to a Premium Suite and was upgraded to a Penthouse! You can imagine how thrilled we were. Embarkation was seamless. We were in our cabin by 1:00 p.m. The ship is so beautiful ...

This was our 24th. cruise overall and 10th. on Princess. We stick with Princess now because they offer a classic cruise experience without all the theme park trappings and children running wild. And their staff is outstanding, well trained, and eager to help. From the room steward to the buffet staff to the main dining room waiters, everyone was friendly and efficient. Even the executive and ...

This has been our first cruise since COVID-19 on a Princess Cruise. We have previously sailed on the Grand and Caribbean Princess (similar ships to the Ruby Princess) and the Disney Wonder. We sailed in two cabins, one with my mom and two daughters and one with my wife, our two sons and me. Getting on and off the Ship: Embarkation and disembarkation was a breeze if you input your ...

It's been a long cold winter and I needed a warm getaway. The Ruby Princess had just started sailing from Galveston to the western caribbean, they were offering great rates and OBC, so I jumped on it. This was my 10th cruise and 2nd cruise on Princess in the last 2 months. I traveled solo in a balcony cabin on Baja deck 11 forward. I flew into Houston Hobby a day prior and spent the night at ...

I have FCC left over from Covid cancelations so it is a use it or loose it deal. I wanted to try Galveston port which I understand Princess has recently returned to. Last time here was 2007 for me. So I booked everything rom airfare to hotel, transfers, cruise, Princess plus package, no insurance. Flew from Chicago Saturday, day before. Went to luggage, man with a Princess sign waiting for me also ...

Overall the cruise and destinations were lovely but the onboard billing and support after the fact were so bad that I will no longer cruise with them. Just took my last cruise with Princess - they charged me for a bottle of wine we never got, made FIVE attempts to get it taken off the bill while onboard and have emailed and called. It has been 6 weeks since I filed complaint with them with no ...

We had a great time. Almost everything was exceptional: the food, the service, the entertainment, the ships facilities. This was the first cruise that we splurged on a room with a balcony -- and it was fabulous. We lett the doors open at night and enjoyed the sounds of the waves. The balcony certainly helped make the room feel larger! We had exceptional service in the dining room and ...

It's nice to be a virgin at 69, and this Caribbean cruise did it for me. It met my criteria beautifully:1) few children, 2) almost no lines, 3) 24/7 really fast room service, and 4) leisurely linen service dining with dishes I had no intention of preparing ever. As an added bonus, boarding from Galveston with the Medallion meant less than 15 minutes from being dropped off to sitting comfortably ...
