I heard nothing but good reviews about the princess cruises that is why I decided to give it a try
The food, the waiters, room service was great , but I was very disappointed with entertainment
It was lacking BIG TIME ! Mostly variety games , music was OK, a lot of sales grabbing time slots
on the schedules everyday mostly to sell jewellery, watches, skin treatments , Spa's etc.
I ...
I chose this cruise because I haven’t been to some of the ports in previous cruises,
As for the excursion for the river tubing stay away from this excursion it is dangerous for some people that are of a certain age and also kids, there are large rocks that you cant see in the water, if you get flipped from your tube and with the strong current these hidden rocks can cause severe damage
Went ...
This was our 4th cruise with Princess (P&O twice and 1 Celebrity) and sad to say, the worst one. The ship itself is lovely, slightly different in so much as no late night top bar, which we missed. I will summarise below on the plus's and minus's
Cabin - Nice but balcony was smaller than the ones we have had on previous cruises. Our patio door had to be lifted and pulled open, we did report ...
The food was good during the day and evening. At Late night, not so mush. After 10 PM the only places to get food was at the "International Cafe," (mostly sweet rolls or Coffee), or room Service.
You want entertainment? When you go to the Theater you better like Musicals. Five out 0f 7 was Musicians. The other 2 nights was the same comedian. He never did anything at any of the night clubs on ...
This was cruise number 4 of 2022 for me as I continue to use up credits from past COVID related cancellations. I did this same itinerary back in February 2022. Back then, the ship sailed at about 25% capacity and I really enjoyed it. This most recent cruise on the same ship and itinerary was a completely different animal. It sailed at almost full passenger capacity with a reduced ...
Background: We’re a couple who have done quite a few cruises. Many on budget lines but we have done several on Princess and Celebrity. This was our second cruise on the Caribbean Princess. I will grade what I consider to be the key components of the cruise, going from best to worst.
Crew: A+
The crew was understaffed and made heroic efforts to keep the passengers happy. I did not see a ...
I hope this review is helpful.
For some reference - We are avid cruisers (+30) sailing on various lines including Princess. Our past cruise experience includes Princess competitors as well as some luxury lines. Our future sailings are guided by world destinations we're marking off our list, but also a few cruises from our home state of Florida each year. So here is our unabridged ...
We stayed on board for 14 days-
I have been cruising for years (7 w/ Princess, 2 w/other lines), am a shareholder and enjoy meeting people. I have to say this cruise was by far crazy/ unbelievable, we felt like lepers, it's not what I expected and I am questioning whether I want to continue with Princess. We started off with American Airline losing our luggage for for 5 days. We got on our ship ...
We have been pretty loyal to Princess, the service, the food, always top notch. This time? Not so much. But I am giving some leeway due to covid. Embarkation was a mess at first as no one seemed t know where we to go for covid testing.
Ended up in 3 different lines, then had to wait 45 minutes past our appointment time as the nurses did not show up. We did get fast tracked past everyone ...
Having done 40+ cruises all I can say is WOW this was not good. I was happy to finally get away but the service and quality on this ship have seriously declined. The Medallionnet app rarely worked causing all sorts of issues with trying to enjoy any part of the cruise since it is the main source of information and planning services. I would have hated to be a first time cruiser as they would ...
