Overall this Cruise was great. Unfortunately we missed one port due to a small Cyclone off the East Coast of New Zealand but passenger safety comes first.

My first time on Princess ... I was quite impressed by the friendliness of staff and in particular our room steward (Sanny) who did a wonderful job.

The Pub Lunch in the Savoy was disappointing as the service was very poor(we ordered but were not served our meal ... after a hour we got up and left the restaurant). People who were seated on the table next to us and who ordered after us were served before us and when we met them later on the cruise they told us our waiter didn’t come back for another 30 minutes. However that being said we did received excellent service in all the other venues we ate.

Cabin Review

Oceanview

Cabin OF

Cabin was a good size ... My only complaint is that the cabin was very noisy with waves slapping against the boat and making a very loud thumping noise when the sea was a little rough.

Lots of hanging space and even a small dressing area outside the compact bathroom.

We were at the end of the corridor at the front of the ship so no passing traffic except for crew members going to the crew quarters and staff area.
