My review of the Star Princess April 2016 - 10 nights CALIFORNIA COASTAL. First let me say that despite a couple glitches, this was a WONDERFUL cruise that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or even re-take!
BOARDING IN Vancouver at CANADA PLACE, line ups were big, although we arrived at approx 11:30. Not to worry though, it moved very quickly and by noon we were on board. Princess was organized and efficient as usual. The pre board area for "preferred boarding" was very packed. I am amazed and impressed at how quick and efficient the whole procedure was. Yay Vancouver and the beautiful Canada Place! Staterooms were ready as they usually are. We were enjoying the traditional welcome aboard buffet in no time!
Our STATEROOM - Baja deck 11 room 319. Balcony is small size but room for two chairs and a little table. If a big balcony matters to you, you would want to book a Caribe deck balcony room or Dolphin mini suite. Our cabin stewards, Eddie and Ernesto were more than up to Princess' usual fine standards. Nice quiet room. We mentioned that our pillows smelled weird and they were immediately replaced with lovely new ones.
