We wanted lots of sea days and a chance to visit four islands in Hawaii so sailing on the Grand Princess was a no brainer. The Grand Princess leaves from San Pedro California round trip to Hawaii.
The Grand Princess is an older ship but full of nostalgia and beautiful wood furnishings throughout the ship. It’s a classy and well maintained ship.
The food was so delicious. It was well ...
The staff was wonderful, the room was spacious and clean but that is where it ends. The ship is old and broken down, an empty pool, the spas were broken and cold more often than not, the sauna worked some days and not others. The buffet food was horrible, and cold. You could get cold fried eggs or cold scrambled eggs but if you want warm eggs you had to pick the hard boiled eggs. The dessert ...
I am an 84 year old woman who has been on 33 cruises, but I had a hip replacement in 2019 and use a mobility scooter or a walker. I can no longer navigate an airport by myself. My companion of choice on this cruise was Phyllis, my 3rd daughter's mother-in-law, who was recently widowed, and is a little younger and a lot fitter than I am. She had been on several cruises - the most recent one was ...
Booked this cruise for March 2020 for our Honeymoon. Was the first cruise ship I was on in 2001 and had a fantastic time back then.
We are not vaccinated but filled out the paperwork for our exemption and also our exemption for the state of Hawaii. Was tested 4 times and all were negative. Was told that if anyone tests positive for covid we wouldn't be able to get off in Hawaii.
Then we ...
I was giving my sister a cruise for her birthday 2 years ago which was cancelled a few times. Finally we were able to book and take a cruise to Hawaii
1) Minimal accommodations on shore excursions for people of poor endurance. They could not accommodate my sisters scooter stating they were never informed… I call BS her scooter had to be delivered to our state room by the crew. If a taxi or ...
We reserved and paid for in full a GUARANTEED 2 BR, 2Bth, Living Room suite 2 months before the cruise. The night before the cruise we received an email with a different room than we selected announced. A 1 Br, 1 Bth suite, HALF THE SIZE! We spent 2 hours on the phone both that night and morning trying to get this corrected. NOTHING. We spent another 2 hours in line on the boat. Nothing until we ...
Boarded on 1/19 and had been tested 3 times for Covid and was negative including before we boarded the ship. On 1/21 we had to be tested again as a requirement of Hawaii. My wife tested positive for Covid and was taken by medical to another cabin for a 10 day quarantine, but I tested negative, so they had me stay in our booked room. This made no sense to me, since we are married and sleep ...
This cruise was originally booked in 2019 for sailing on March 13, 2020. The day before sailing, the cruise was cancelled due to Covid. It was rebooked 3 times before we finally were able to sail. We were more than ready! The pre-cruise Covid testing passed and we were on our way to LA. The night prior to the cruise, we received a text saying we would have a Covid test prior to boarding. ...
We chose this cruise over three years ago, in November of 2019. We were originally booked for October 2020, and we were so excited. By April 2020 we realized that our cruise wasn't going to happen, and we lost our enthusiasm, stopped the countdown. They didn't cancel our cruise until July 2020, three months out.
Well we rebooked for August 2021, but you know what happened. Then our travel ...
This was my 1st cruise experience. It started off rocky because I paid for double occupancy, but when I later tried to add a friend they told me the friend would have to pay the exact same price I did and they would not have their own cabin room. While trying to resolve the situation I called Princess and after the 2 hour phone wait they said that they could not talk to me directly( that I must ...
