We loved the chance to sail out of our home town (San Francisco). The embarkation and disembarkation were smooth and pretty fast. Onboard entertainment was a disappointment to say the least. On a 15-day cruise there were only 2 production shows and they were not great. The magician was awful and I think someone's grandkid could have done better. We walked out. We felt that Princess sis not want to pump any money into real good shows and most of the "entertainment" was a terrible deceptive ploy to get you to shop and spend your money. We've already spent THOUSANDS of dollars on this cruise in hopes of having great entertainment. It was just not there. Sales. sales, sales, sales, sales, sales, sale. It was just overwhelming to look at the Princess Patter and try to figure out where the deceptive "entertainment was. Then with the "craft" projects, they limited the participants to 24 people!!! 24 people on a ship of over 3,000!!! That's absurd. All the other "craft" programs were an additional $$$$$$. These soft sell practices just disgusted us and left us feeling like we did not get our money's worth. Mu husband and I discussed what we would rate the cruise on a 1-10 scale and we both said "5".
