Los Angeles Cruise Reviews

I recently embarked on a voyage with Princess Cruise Line on the Discovery Princess. While the ship itself was beautiful, my overall experience was disappointing and didn’t meet my expectations. The ship lacked a variety of activities for children. They had a multi-purpose court and two ping pong tables, but the equipment was worn down and in need of repair. They didn’t organize many outdoor ...

Not apples to apples! Great time with our daughter and her 3 boys ages 6, 3, 1! boys were too young to participate in some of the fun, plus the weather was on the coolish side, but that is on us. we made the best of what was lovely about the experience. my daughter chose an interior cabin for this "cruising experiment." she was amazed how well they fit...she and baby in queen bed and boys ...

Sad to say we feel this cruise was somewhat disappointing . First the boarding was easy, we arrived about 2pm and almost everyone was already boarded. Elevators were super busy we waited 20+ minutes to get one with room for a wheelchair. Our room was good and our steward (Arnel) was polite and efficient. We took in one show and it was subpar. Most disappointing was the food. Main dining and ...

The Bliss had the itinerary we were interested in. Wasn't a good experience. At embarkation there was standing room only in the terminal, I get that. But the lady escorting Haven guests yelled (yes, yelled) at us every time she walked by to move out of the way. She said we couldn't stand in the side aisle. There was no where to go, the terminal was packed. The food in the main dining ...

First off, this ship has a very weird layout. You can’t walk from one end to the other on most decks. The layout is so odd, the Comedian headlining the weekend made a joke about it! The crew, for the most part, were outstanding. Very friendly and helpful. The bars, while always busy, got to everyone fairly quickly and the drinks were tasty. Most of the included restaurants around the ship were ...

We chose this cruise mainly because it was going through the Panama Canal which was fantastic, but unfortunately two of the original stops got cancelled, the stop in San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua got cancelled just a short time after booking and Grand Cayman got cancelled as the swell was to bad for the tenders. Pros: All the staff were excellent The Medallion App seemed to work well The ...

Right off the top the ship’s layout is dated and confusing. Almost every level of the ship is dark and gloomy even on the brightest of days. Getting to our cabin we were met with the most putrid smell both in the cabin and throughout the hallway. To the very last day the smell was present. A dinner credit was allotted to my mother-in-law to help resolve the issue and this meal (had at the sushi ...

We selected this cruise line and ship for the purpose of celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary. While the first day went smoothly, we encountered issues when it came time to sleep. The stateroom had a significant amount of creaking and knocking sounds, which greatly impacted our ability to rest. Throughout the seven nights, we were only able to get one decent night's sleep, leaving us feeling ...

We chose this short cruise with family from brochure advertising. The program to register for this cruise was updated once and was the cause of hours of needless searching to complete registration. Despite the continuous hype on the last full day promoting a 10 star cruise, our experience was less than satisfactory. One waiter’s rude attitude at an evening meal caused us to reevaluate the ...

We chose the Half World cruise as a way to escape winter and to get to the Arab countries where we wanted to tour. Cruising is always pleasant and so my rating is relative to other cruises we've done. Generally the food was ok (what you might expect at Denny's) and the ride not to bad (for us) even when the seas were rough. But nothing was impressive and the entertainment was VERY lame. You can ...
