The staff was friendly- mini suite was good. The adventures offered through Princess were disappointing. The orca watching we booked through Princess was supposed to be a 3 hour trip. We sailed out to the lighthouse and then circled back to the harbor, took about an hour. Then we spent an hour puttering around the harbor. Should have been sold as a lighthouse and harbor tour....but then again they wouldn't get the high price they charge by calling it an orca excursion. We had better luck with excursions we booked on our own. Too many gimmic sales offered by the staff-they like their add on sales. Also Medical advice on a cruise ship is probably not the most reliable source especially when the "expert" is selling the remedy to all that ails you. No I don't want an upgraded coffee or orthotics for my shoe or wine tasting or .....at least at home I don't have to open the door.
