The room looked nice but opened the curtains to the balcony and turned around to see hair from previous guests everywhere and something had been spilled all down the front of the table and fridge. Nothing seemed to be sanitized ( same dirty rag to wipe down tables without a spray of disinfectant on all outside deck areas and the Eatery tables). In the Eatery breakfast and lunch served the same ...
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 picked this cruise originally as it was to be the 3rd cruise on Sun Princess as it turned out it was the inaugural cruise which was more expensive at the time of booking but we felt by the 3rd cruise all would be working what a mistake!!!
Princess should have let us know before we travelled that the theatre and park 19 would be unavailable to us instead just giving 60$ each when we on board ...
Imagine this scenario: Princess Cruiseline sends out an email to booked passengers for the 2/28 Inaugural (by default after 2/8 and 2/18 were canceled) cruise. The email discloses that, despite their best efforts, the ship just isn't quite ready yet. Never the less, they have decided to sail as planned vs canceling outright. This fantasy email gave passengers the option of rescheduling to a ...
I was advised that being on the inaugural cruise is like being the guinea pig. Therefore, I purposely chose the third sailing of the new Sun Princess cruise. However, due to the cancellation of the first two sailings, we ended up on the inaugural cruise. I was excited, thinking that everything on the cruise would be brand new, and I hoped the advice I got wasn't true. As it turns out, my friend ...
This was my first cruise since the pandemic.I noticed a real decline in the food and noticed soiled upholstery on much of the fabric furniture.Soiled carpets along our hallway to our cabin.This is the last ship to be built in its class.I sailed the Royal Princess in 2015 and there was no comparison!Some of the furniture seems more cheaply constructed like the sofa bed in our stateroom L216.The ...
Booked to try out Princess for the first time, had good expectations and the cruise was competitive from IGLU. Overall a very mixed back, the ship is lovely, modern clean and well maintained and it creates a great first impression. But it doesn't last long, the ship is so overcrowded and understaffed that it is impossible to get a seat, a sunbed, or a table unless you get there early and reserve ...
Tried Royal Caribbean (outstanding) and MSC (very good) and although you receive loyalty benefits it seemed tragic not to sample more of what’s on offer out there so here I am on a princess ship , it will be the last time . Nothing terribly wrong with it if you like Butlins, but not one thing I could say was terrific. Embarkation was the worse cruising experience I’ve ever had , Princess you ...
Princess came highly recommended however we were extremely disappointed.
It did not start well. We queued for more than two and a half hours just to get into the terminal and then found that they had lost our medallions and had a photograph of someone completely different on their database. All told it was more than three hours from entering the port to reach our cabin.
The system of ...
