This was our 14th cruise crossing mulitple cruise lines (Viking, Royal, Azamara, HAL) and now Princess for the first time. Our trip was going to be the 4th cruise of the Sun Princess, but it turned out to be the second I believe. I still have high expectations for Princess as they didnt communicate any issues with the boat prior to departure. We did upgrade to a balcony room. We had another room ...
They advertise and promised a vacation that wasn't what we paid for... Loss of most important stop, Santorini, and the replacement wasn't even close in comparison! So much of the entertainment wasn't up and running, and won't be for quite a while! There is no Spellbound, no Love by Britto, no shows in the Dome, reduced replacement shows in the arena and Piazza. It not even close to what is ...
We chose the cruise based on the legacy of Princess, the newer ship, and a European itinerary. Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment overall.
The cabin, a mini suite was wonderful, the ship is beautiful, and the staff is fantastic. I sailed with Celebrity to Alaska in an older Solstice ship and did enjoy the upgrades. The specialty dining was excellent and worth the extra money. Pizza ...
1. I’m a Princess Platinum member. Been on Princess cruises over 10+ years.
2. Have also sailed with Celebrity and other major cruise lines.
3. Almost always book a balcony
4. Opted for Princess Plus (drinks and WiFi package)
It both saddens and disappoints me to see how Princess has declined from the days where cruising was special to its current state where it’s become a shallow ...
We've sailed four times with Royal Caribbean, once before with Princess and once with Carnival. This was far and away the most expensive cruise - and almost the most disappointing.
Despite Princess's touting of its MedallionNet app, it's really hit or miss. Preloading all your required documentation does not change how long it takes to clear the regular onboarding process: it's still all ...
Good reputation and attracted by the itinerary plus cinema under the stars.
The cabin was small but clean and comfortable although my wife and I had to play turns each who used the one chair. Balcony was very small and overlooked from above.
Bar waiters were excellent and quick
They arranged our flights but after believing the return flight timings meant that we would be looked after, we ...
The reason I choose this cruise was to see Gibraltar and Pisa. They canceled the 2 most important ports during the Cruise. I had two great excursions canceled. I hope I have a chance in the future to see them. But the pots of Marseille and Genoa we great, The tour guides were excellent but we needed a little more shopping time. 20 to 30 minutes is really not enough time to purchase gifts. The ship ...
We were on the Inaugural cruise of the Regal and we assumed that this inaugural cruise would be equally well done. WRONG! During the Regal inaugural cruise every Princess Entertainer of the Year was on board. The music and performances were beyond wonderful. However, on the Sky there was no special effort to bring on board the best of the best. Sometimes it was impossible to find music anywhere. ...
This was my family's first cruise on Princess and I have to say we are extremely disappointed. We experienced so many issues, the most important being with poor quality of service. Here is some of what we experienced:
- Nights two and three we had horrible (and by horrible I mean nonexistent) service at dinner. Our other tables in our large party were literally finishing their entrees and we ...
We chose this cruise because of the itinerary. The crew is excellent and the true wealth of the Princess Cruise Line. The balcony cabin on the Aloha deck was tired and in need of a serious makeover. The food on this cruise was sub-standard and poor quality--tough pork and beef--poor selections--fish (trout) that the wonderful waiter told me not to order--he had already returned several portions ...
