Chose cruise for destinations and celebration of 50th our anniversary and a 75 birthday.
Food very average. I compared it to a step up from the Golden corral. Formal night diner proportion and selection undesirable and embarrassing to us for the wait staff to serve it. Overall communication insufficient. No Port talks as to what to expect or what to do if not on an excursion. Pay as you go ...
The Crown Princess is an aging ship in need of some updating. Staterooms and public areas look past their prime. Some upholstery shabby, décor dated.
Dining room menu seems to be in rotation every few days. Nothing of interest or originality. Poorly prepared at times and often smothered with some gravy or sauce seemingly meant to cover up what lies beneath. One of the more common offerings ...
We embarked in the World Cruise Port in San Pedro, California. It was very fast and easy which was great. We had received our Medallions by mail, so it made it quick. I had bought 4 airtag wristbands online and they fit the Medallions perfectly.
The Crown is not one of the new Princess ships, but she is wonderful just the same. Everything was kept clean and polished, and I enjoyed the wood and ...
Entertainment was hit and miss. More misses. The Hawaiian couple were very talented. Not only performing each day but even teaching ukulele and hula to passengers with a presentation at the end. The ship singers and dancers performed 2 shows over a 15 day cruise, really? The other nights were comedians, magicians, and game shows. The destination and subject matter speakers were good, even if ...
I’m writing this review because i wanted to say that my 3 servers were amazing. Nanna from thailand, Gary from Philippines, and Mauro from Columbia. They were amazing waiters and they told me if I wrote a review they would be able to get a promotion. I really hope they get their promotion. I think they really deserve it. They were wonderful. They made eating meals super fun and they were just so ...
Our party contracted the Nora virus and the Corona virus during the cruise, so we were only able to see one of the four ports in Hawaii. My son had to visit the medical center twice because of the outbreaks on the ship.
There was a sewage line leak in our room that flooded most of the floor. There were also numerous sewage leaks in the hallway throughout the duration of the cruise. Sections of ...
We was subjected to 2 weeks of being constantly cold in all areas of this so called luxury ship The Food was a disgrace the food which was due to be hot was served just luke warm or cold as the ship was so cold the plastic plates were cold apart from the passengers wearing coats even the staff had to wear their windbreakers in the buffet after a few days all we could hear was people coughing and ...
This was our 23rd cruise with princess. First time on the Crown. This is also the first time we were disappointed in a cruise.
Embarkation was smooth and efficient. My wife had wheelchair assist from the terminal door to our cabin door. We even got scanned for location of muster station on way to cabin, saving a trip later. Our balcony Baja deck cabin was all the way aft on the Starboard side. ...
We have sailed Princess a few times and like their product. The staff on this ship exceeded our expectations! We had the best bartenders of any cruise, especially Jackie in the Explorer's Lounge, Pablo in the Casino and Mike and John in the Wheelhouse bar. Our Waiters, Donald from the Philippines and Juan from Peru along with their helpers were stellar. These people made this trip spectacular! ...
We were so excited to do a two week cruise to Hawaii for our anniversary. We have cruised most of the major lines but never Princess so that added to our excitement.
Quick summary - it is an overall decent ship that, for me was completely soured by my poor SPA experience
