There were some weird odours from time to time which were unexplained

The free pizzeria which was a favourite of ours, has been replaced by Share restaurant. The cost is $39 and the menu was quite limited; we didn't try it.

Cabin Review

Premium Oceanview

Cabin O5

We have traditionally had balcony cabins until this cruise. However, we enjoyed this cabin the best because it is the biggest cabin we have had. We enjoyed the extra space. There is ample cupboard space and hanging space. The bathroom is small but adequate. The new luxurious beds with Egyptian cotton sheets are fantastic

Contrary to all cruise sites I have researched, this cabin should have had a 'large' window, but it had a 'picture' window. This window is still quite large and gave us adequate views

I saw the 'large' window ocean view cabins which are on deck 8 forward and aft. These windows are slanted inwards which means the cabins lose space and are not as spacious as our 05 Premium cabin

There are only 15 such cabins on each side.

Do not trust the cabin descriptions of Princess or most of the cruise sites. They are generic and supplied by Princess.

I am trying to correct this by supplying photos.

Port Reviews

Geraldton

A picturesque destination with an excellent W.A. Museum

Port Douglas, Australia

A great mariner and waterfront views. The Cablecar tour was spectacular. The Sky rail above the Daintree canopy and the Scenic Rail under the canopy was a great highlight
