Princess Grand Princess Cruise Reviews for Family to the Mediterranean

my first cruise was on the grand princess in 2009 since then I have cruised six times mostly with royal Caribbean. the grand had under gone a make over since my first cruise it was ok but not spectacular the main thing that stuck out was the lack of hygiene, on rci you cannot move for handwash stations and staff encouraging you to wash your hands, when boarding the ship and entering food area ...

Embarkation at Southampton To be honest it was not a great start to the cruise we had to wait 90 minutes to embark on the ship. The reason was a coastguard safety check which we could see from the terminal. Although it was a pain to be kept waiting we were lucky as some people with later check ins were there for 3 hours! The cabin Although princess said it was a twin room and could not be ...

Sorry for the longish review but hopefully some info will help decisions of future cruisers onboard Grand Princess. We have just returned last weekend from our Western Med cruise. Our party consisted of 17 of us who travelled as a family for our son's wedding which took place on September 23rd .Ages ranged from our sons one year old baby to my wife's parents who are sprightly Octogenarians. 7 of ...

This was our third cruise with our family and having only been on P&O before there was some trepidation amongst us as to whether it would reach our expectations and hopes... Suffice to say it did, and then some! The food was fantastic and our waiters Kittipong and Peter in the 2nd sitting at Botticelli restaurant were brilliant. Marius the maitre d of our section was also exemplary. The food ...

Well, we've been back from our two week Western Mediterranean cruise on the Grand Princess (our second cruise aboard the Grand) for two weeks now. I haven't had time to sit down and write a review as yet, but Sue is at work and there is nothing else to occupy my time (for a change!) so, here we go! Embarkation: We arrived at the Mayflower Terminal at around 1220, having only travelled five ...

Pre-cruise We booked through Bolsover Cruise Club, the booking was handled by Craig very efficiently and we were pleased with the service. An unexpected bonus was that our P&O loyalty was acknowledged by Princess (it doesn't go the other way though) this put us straight into Platinum. However as my wife did the booking only she got the upgrade, a quick call to Princess fixed this, apparently ...

We did back to back sailings on the Grand in April/May -- an 11 day Canary Islands and a 17 day Mediterranean & Adriatic. This review covers the Mediterranean & Adriatic cruise. This was our 56th cruise on Princess, and 13th on the Grand. Overall it was a very good cruise although it started with an "issue." Embarkation This was the second of our b2b sailings this time on the Grand so ...

Embarkation: We travelled up to Southampton the night before & stayed in the Highfield House Hotel, a basic but, pleasant place for an overnight stop. On arrival at the docks we dropped our luggage, drove to the short stay car park where we were met by Edward from Looking4Parking (booked through Cruise Co.uk): he took the keys & we set off for the very short walk to the check in desks. After a ...
