We really had a wonderful time on the Crown Princess last January. We decided to cruise for our honeymoon and it was absolutely perfect.

booking: We booked on the Princess website. After booking we were contacted by Billy, our assigned Princess representative for those who book through the website. Billy was very helpful and gave us great tips for our trip. He also arranged for a special dessert one night in the dining room and also our room to be decorated. He booked hotels for us in Ft. Lauderdale and also airport transfers.

arrival and hotel: We flew to Ft. Lauderdale the same day as our morning wedding. Needless to say we were dead tired by the time we got to Ft. Lauderdale. A Princess representative was waiting for us at the baggage claim. It was so nice to have our bags grabbed and be ushered to a bus without us having to think at all. The bus took us to the Marriott renaissance hotel. We tried to get off the bus, but the bus driver kindly suggested that we wait for the bellhop (we are not used to that kind of service) who came running to get our bags and take us to our room. The next morning we had to put our bags at pretty early for them to be picked up. We ordered room service for breakfast and eventually wandered down and checked out. There were alot of people milling around the lobby waiting for the Princess transfer. There was a Princess representative in the hotel who was friendly. We went through a slightly odd exercise of walking around a room where all of our baggage was- I never entirely understood what we were doing, and then we were put on busses. Read more
