I have been on 11 cruises, not a lot but a fair amount. I have sailed on Carnival, MSC, Royal Caribbean, Holland America and Princess.
My past voyage on Princess was spectacular which is why we chose to use the line again.
As we planned our family vacation we knew we needed a ship that would appeal to my 80 year old parents and my 28 and 29 year old Daughters.
So we did our research and ...
Unfortunately, this cruise was one disappointment after another. Our first issue was our dining experience. We had booked a nightly reservation for traditional dining, and during our 1st dinner, our waiter told us that traditional dining had been “abolished”. I told him I was sad to hear that, he mentioned that I could request him and ask to be sat in the same section each night, which we did, ...
This was my first Princess experience, and I was excited, because my understanding was that Princess was a "step up" in the cruise experience I'm used to.
This is my fourth cruise overall. The three previous with Royal Carribbean. All four cruises have departed out of Galveston. Also this is my first post-COVID cruise.
Overall, my experience was extremely underwhelming.
I was extremely ...
I never thought I would write this kind of review for a cruise vacation (and this was my 10th cruise), but Caribbean Princess made the impossible possible with a terrible experience in every aspect.
Found a good itinerary with Caribbean Princess? Better ignore it as the captain will make sure you skip as many ports as possible. In our case, 2 OUT 4 (!) ports got cancelled due to "strong" winds. ...
We chose princess cruises because we had an agent LIE to us from the start and made it seem like we were getting a great deal and all these amazing savings and packages, only to find out that it was all a lie and we never got anything we were told and weren’t refunded for anything the agent told us. 3rd and 4th guest sail free lie! Kids sail free lie. My 3 year old paid full price for a cruise ...
to start with our room carpet was dirty-and someone craped in toilet to leave us a gift ,apparently this was not cleaned prior to us getting room. the first port of call was there private island where they ran out of hamburger buns. The second night in dinning room the food was terrible and service almost as bad. The same thing the second visit dining room . I purchased a ring for my wife and ...
I recently sailed on the Regal Princess from February 12th-19th 2023 on a 7 day Eastern Caribbean cruise which stopped in Princess Cays, Bahamas, ST. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, and ST Kitts & Nevis. I have previously sailed with Princess before once and had a pleasant experience. I have also sailed on Celebrity and Royal Caribbean on about 6 cruises total for comparison purposes in this review as ...
Now that I had time to reflect on my first princess cruise experience, I would like to share my thoughts. The ship was amazing, the process to get on and off went smoothly. It does help to pay for transportation to and from the ship and pay for a suite. We did custom medallions and we loved them. The Penthouse suite A734 was nice. Excellent food throughout the ship. The service was incredible, ...
We are platinum members on Princess. We were again advised to buy a plus or premium package with our cruise. We had done this last year (same ship, same month) and all was ok. We are not big drinkers but do enjoy wine with dinner and a few cocktails while cruising. We purchased the plus package. $7000 later we boarded our ship. Our deluxe balcony room was our first disappointment. If u sit on the ...
We just returned from a 10-day Princess Panama Canal cruise. If you are thinking of it, read this and think long and hard.
This was our 3rd cruise with Princess. I did this cruise pre covid with my mother, about 8 years ago. I was so excited to show my husband and grown son all the cool things but much has changed and to me, not for the better, This will be my last trip with Princess.
The ...
