This is my first attempt at writing a review so I hope it helps future cruisers. This was our fist Princess cruise and probably last, for us, the dining experience is 30% of the cruise, and honesty very important.
Embarkation : We got lucky and rolled right through with a little unsolicited help from one of the ladies working the lines, but it looked like a free for all, caused mostly by ...
My wife and I had been on one other cruise prior to this one. It was on the Discovery Princess to Alaska in June, 2022. We enjoyed it very much. So we decided to take the 15-day cruise to Hawaii, from LA, on the Crown Princess in December 2022. There were no health restrictions required and we felt that it would be a safe trip. One of our hard-shell suitcases was cracked when it was delivered ...
My wife and I love Princess cruises. We try to take them whenever we cruise. We have taken the Hawaii, South Pacific before and enjoyed it. This one was better then the last on, which was 5 years ago.
Embarkation was fast and smooth. From the time we arrived at to cruise terminal until we were on the ship took 15 minutes. I was concerned because my wife was considered unvaccinated so I thought ...
We chose the cruise because of the itinerary, travelled with two friends. We were all platinum members. We were looking forward to a relaxing time and excited for the planned stops. Stops at Bora Bora and Pago Pago were cancelled prior to the ships departure, very disappointing for many of the passengers. Understand this was out of Princess control. Embarkation at San Pedro was the easiest and ...
I have always sailed Princess, am elite status now after about 18 cruises. I do this for the same reason people stick to a particular airline. I have in the past been on Carnival, Holland America, and NCL. It was almost as if this cruise was doomed from the beginning. I arrived beforehand at the cruise hotel and then had me listed as an employee rooming with several other employees. I ...
I all ways wanted to go to a city in Mexico and I had heard that Encinada was a good city to visit I was not disappointed it was great. The shopping was good and the Fish tacos were the best I have ever eaten.
The Crown Princess is a beautiful ship and the food was really good. the staff was ready to serve our every need. We had a wonderful time and I have already booked a cruse to Alaska with ...
We flew to LA and spent a few days touring before the cruise. When Sunday arrived we returned to LAX for our transfer to the Crown. Much to our surprise, instead of having to wait in long lines at the terminal we were taken to the Sheraton Hotel where we filled out our paperwork while enjoying coffee and rolls. The large group was subdivided into groups the size of bus capacity and one-by-one our ...
1. We had never been to So. America.
2. It departed from LA Harbor
Any problems we had on this cruise were not the fault of Princess. Two problems with the room were fixed promptly and efficiently. Our room steward, Esperanza, was terrific, caring, helpful, cheerful and kind.
We did find the service, particularly in the Horizon buffet slower than we recall on past cruises. However, the ...
Embarked on MV Crown Princess on a 27-day cruise from Los Angeles to Montevideo, I had been driven away from poolside by the thumping music. So I found a deck chair in a quiet region, stretched out happily, and opened my book. Presently, a cruise line goombah appeared and demanded $40 to use the chair for the day.
“You’re kidding.”
“This is a quiet area.”
“I know. That’s why I sat ...
My first complain complain is the bed furniture need to be replaced very badly, the mattress has cave in that make us feel like sleeping in the sink hole (it also happen to friends of us on other room), otherwise the room is clean and cozy except the shower room is so tiny, it doesn't have room to turn around for a skinny person like me (I am only 140 pounds and 5 feet 7), I wonder how can I 200 ...
