Interesting destinations. Panama canal, Cartagena, and Limon well worth seeing. Great snorkeling on Grand Cayman. Well organized and executed tours. As usual service on board and embarkation and debarkation very good. Rooms were well appointed and clean. Ship is unique in that it offers and indoor pool and lounge area along with a sauna. There is also a top sun deck with a splash pool. ...
EMBARKATION: On 2/28/19, only two cruise ships in port, and little traffic. The area was well marked and parking was easy. At Terminal 2 there isn’t a line for Priority boarding for Platinum and Elite from outside. Everyone enters in one line and staff checks Passports and Boarding Passes. Then the line splits for Priority. We’re Platinum, and it took less than 30 smooth minutes from driving ...
On my bucket list for years and could never convince my past wife to get on a ship and the timing was right. I have read some of the reviews and cannot agree with them as they sailed at a bad time. My cruise was FANTASTIC, the Panama Canal visit was the highlight, on board service was excellent and I never had to wait to be seated. The waiters did not hover over you but watched and knew when ...
We have cruised with Princess twice before and were happy with our experiences. This time we noticed all the cost cutting measures that have been taken. Ship was very crowded and priced were lowered closer to sailing. However, club class mini suite pricing was not lowered. Embarkation was great however next time I would not board until after noon. Disappointed with quality of toiletries, tissue, ...
We did the Crown for South America and loved this itinerary! The Crown looked wonderful and the staff better than ever.
Embarkation was a breeze as we are Platinum members. After a nice lunch, we were happy to see our cabin was ready and soon after our luggage arrived. Our stateroom attendant Joel greeted us and seemed anxious to make us feel at home. He would have bathrobes for us by morning ...
I chose this cruise because it had a great itinerary and length was great. We have cruises with Princess before and we’re very satisfied. Net time maybe I will pick a newer ship with Princess because Crown Princess was a little outdated... By the end of our cruise quite a few elevators were not working and with a lot of elderly on the ship it was difficult to get into an elevator. I was also ...
Great cruise line. What is not to like. Staff were all friendly, food was great, service excellent. Enjoyed all the Ports of Call as we had not been to any of them. Enjoyed our time and excursions in the ports. Enjoyed the duty free shopping. Weather was really nice. Was a bit windy at times, but still good weather. Stateroons wete decent size. Free Housecoats to use would have been nice, ...
We have been with Princess since 2007, our first cruise. We always have great experiences and recommend them to all.
We have never encountered a 'bad' cruise or 'bad' service with Princess.
Yes some of their fleet is aging and need updating but they do their best.
We tend to like smaller ships and have not been on their larger ones.
We are now Elite with their loyalty program and ...
I would like to let you know how dissatisfied we are with Princess Cruises at this time.
Our first cruise ever was in 2008 on the Crown Princess. We were very impressed and pleased with everything. There were musical groups entertaining at the pool as well as plenty of activities keeping us busy throughout the day. Waitstaff were always ready and willing to provide us with every request ...
FEED-BACK ON A CRUISE WITH CROWN PRINCESS
My wife and I took a cruise on the Crown Princess from February 25 to March 17 in the Caribbean. we had a mini suite. We had sailed with several other cruise lines before, but this cruise was the first one with Princess. In short, we have been very disappointed and will not select Princess again. A few examples:
Buffet: The choice of food on the ...
