Princess Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) Cruise Reviews

To put this review in perspective, just five weeks before this cruise we'd been to a river cruise on the Nile in Egypt. So any review after that may pale in comparison. That being said, this cruise was very nice in where the ship stopped for tours. We've been on a cruise to the Caribbean before but to different stops along the way. This cruise is listed as a ten day trip which is true enough ...

We usually cruise on Royal Caribbean but wanted to do something different so we booked a cruise on Sky Princess sailing on 1/7/23 out of Ft. Lauderdale. It is a newer ship and is very nice. Our last cruise on Princess was in 2021 on the Emerald Princess. This ship is laid out similar to the Emerald but on a much bigger scale. Our first port was Princess Cay which is really a day at the beach. The ...

We chose this trip because we live where it's cold and it was on sale with extra perks from prestigecruises.com. We are not exclusive on what cruise line we travel with. Our embarkation time was 1:00 but it appeared we could have come sooner. We sailed right through because I'd done everything to get us in the green line on line before the trip and our medallions had been mailed to us. Our room ...

The service was wonderful. The amount of quests was very low so we had a lot of crew members and not many quests. I liked some of the advantages of the Medallion class service.. They encourage you to order from your medallion but if you order a drink from you medallion it comes from room service and not one of the waiters for the bar. You may never get it. Room service ordering was great if ...

I choose this cruise because it was a new ship and I would like to celebrate 2023 at sea. This ship was awesome, welcoming and well decorated. Enchanted Princess had a little something for everybody. With Princess Medallion it was a breeze to go in and out of the ship. I had a mini suite on Baha cabin 414. The balcony was a nice size a bit bigger on one side. The mini suite was very big we ...

We selected this cruise when our full transit Panama Canal cruise was cancelled in 2021. Although we were not thrilled to cruise on an older ship, and had heard negative reviews about her, we decided to give it a try. The itinerary was supposed to include Jamaica, Costa Rica, Cartagena, Panama Canal, and Grand Cayman. Due to a Cuban refugee rescue we missed Jamaica, and due to weather ...

Overall it was a good cruise. The ships indoor public areas were very nice and had been updated. We typically cruise on Celebrity and liked how the bars and different venues on the Caribbean Princess were more separated and seemed more intimate. The outside pool areas were nice but could use some updating. We enjoyed the four different pool areas. Two of the pool areas are adult only which is ...

This was actually a back-to-back cruise, continuing on after Christmas to include New Year’s, ending on January 3rd. 2023. This was our 7th Princess cruise and first on the Regal Princess. Overall, a good cruise, with great weather except for Fort Lauderdale. The dining room service was excellent for a change. The food was very good, but did not change for the second cruise, so it was a ...

I opted for this cruise over the holidays to see the Panama Canal for the first time. I was also excited to visit Cartagena, Columbia and Costa Rica as well. We used the bidding system to upgrade from a balcony to a Club Class Mini-Suite. Given the length of the cruise and the number of sea days, we were very happy for the upgrade. Club Class allowed for us to board early, have a larger cabin ...

REASONS FOR PICKING: 1. Never seen Panama Canal or South America before, so those were 2. Needed a holiday season cruise and on short notice. 3. Have cruised many times, but never with Princess. Wanted to see how it stacked up for vs its sister line Carnival or vs other premium lines like Holland WHAT WENT RIGHT: 1. Planning the cruise was easy 2. Getting on and off the ship was ...
