The only good experience was our room housekeeper and our bed. The premium balcony that we bid up for had no footstools, so they brought us little table things. An officer was out smoking in an area that blew his smoke right into our balcony making us go inside. The crew elsewhere in santorini seemed unhappy. we ordered at salty dog-the girl wrote down wrong number, so as we waited for our ...
All I will say is that COVID must have devastated Princess. Their cost cutting measures are extensive. As a top of the line suite passenger, we come to expect certain little things that help make the cruise memorable. They have eliminated flowers in the suite, chocolates at bed turn down, the sewing kit, pen and stationary, the fruit basket until we asked for one and individual soaps and shampoos. ...
This was my 9th Princess cruise in the past four and a half years (Platinum Captain's Circle member), and third time on Enchanted Princess (previous two were in 2022). The staff is just as wonderful as every Princess ship! Unfortunately, this cruise experience was not anywhere near as enjoyable as previous two cruises. long wait times for drinks led us to believe that they are understaffed. We ...
Not the princess I sailed on 6 years ago. Had a reserve suite and the only Benefit was the dining room where the food and staff were fantastic. As for the rest forget about it. No such thing as priority boarding. Same line for everyone. Forget the sanctuary. Went right to it and was told it sold out in minutes. Also had Premier package. Priority reservations for specialty restaurants is not a ...
This was our 6th Princess cruise. The last one we were on was one of the first after covid, 700 passengers
We has our flights arranged through ez air. We were among last to board, but we did board!
First time of rain in Ft Lauderdale, first port in Cays was cancelled so we were at sea til Wednesday. First 2 days it seemed staff was discombobulated. Food was ok but nothing special. We ...
This was a family trip that I was told I would attend. I only ever went on a cruise one other time(carnival) really didn't like that one as I felt it was for much younger folks than myself. This cruise was a little different. I liked most of the shows and on board entertainment. The food was ok, only used the buffet so rarely had actually hot food. The cabin I was in was pretty small. It was okay ...
Wanted a two week cruise in warm weather. This was back to back 7 days each Eastern then Western Carribean. A number of cruisers did this on the ship. Sailed from FLL Eastbound and returned to FLL. Got off the ship and got right back on - just turnaround, no unpacking (for those wondering.) Then Westbound and back to FLL. No issues with embarkation or disembarkation.

Onboarding process over 2 hours due to security breach. Many of us older folks had no place to sit and both standing and making it to the floor were both bad choices. Prior to the cruise I booked dinner reservations at specific times, specific days, and specific locations using the Princess app. On our first night's dinner we were scolded by the receptionist for being late. I asked her, what do ...
This was my first and most likely last Princess cruise. They did not honor the items in Princess Plus package I purchased when booking the cruise through a travel agent a year ago. Guest service staff response was “that was the old package”. How was I supposed to know it changed? Guess they never heard of “grandfathering”!
The room steward was wonderful as was the Amalfi dining room staff. My ...
It has been several years since we sailed with Princess and the changes are significant. The food quality used to be outstanding and now very average. Cold potatoes on the breakfast buffet and dried out lasagna in the dining room. Menu options just don't seem to go together -- at least for us. I will say the Alfredo was as delicious as ever. What annoyed us most is the free style dining which ...
