Overall summary of the cruise: great weather, hard working staff, we made the best of the app, however, the food was mediocre at best unless you paid extra and a few surprises really got to us. The other reviews that we read tempered our expectations and this ship had a serious norovirus outbreak a few weeks before we sailed. We arrived in good spirits on a soggy afternoon in Galveston. ...

Changes are noticeable on my first cruise after covid… the personal attention is missing. All was good but not what it used to be. 1. State room attention limited(wanted to shampoo carpet while i was onshore) no personal shampoos etc. Daily room clean up limited 2. Room service - food was just not as good & limited. 3. Restaurant -i enjoyed most of my dinners ...

The embarkation process was fast, but then we had to wait because the ship was being sanitized due to a norovirus outbreak on the previous cruise. (We did not have an outbreak on our cruise.) Our room (B3** balcony room) was comfortable. The bathroom was small, but the shower was tiny. I don't know how a large person could take a shower comfortably. My 6'2" husband had difficulties. The ...

Never intended to fill out a review, but after calling and filling out Princess' official form repeatedly over the past two months to obtain a post-cruise survey... here we are. Sadly, my original intent was to give accolades to our dinner servers (in hopes that they would receive a day off), but it doesn't look like that will happen. We decided to book a crew last minute after our house ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
