I had a credit due to Princess canceling our cruise from Sydney to Auckland which was going to expire so I decided to use it for this sailing. I was excited to see L1** was available and even more so when I saw there was no single supplement. The description of this cabin, located all the way forward and in the corner, is slightly misleading, and therefore it seems to discourage people from ...
This five-day getaway cruise out of and back to San Francisco with stops in San Diego and Ensenada Mexico was to get away alone in order to get some personal work done in the stateroom while also enjoying shipboard activities. The mini-suite stateroom was superb: comfortable, no issues, and spotless upon arrival; everything worked and most impressive were a few small sensor lights that turned on ...
I’m writing this review because i wanted to say that my 3 servers were amazing. Nanna from thailand, Gary from Philippines, and Mauro from Columbia. They were amazing waiters and they told me if I wrote a review they would be able to get a promotion. I really hope they get their promotion. I think they really deserve it. They were wonderful. They made eating meals super fun and they were just so ...
This was our first cruise and to be honest I was biased because I remember watching the show The Love Boat as a kid. The show made me want to try cruising and experience this sense of royalty and comfort. The real life experience was all I could hope for. The staff from every aspect was so friendly, welcoming and offered their services all the time. I didn’t even have to get my own drinks while ...
This was my Annual birthday getaway. Fabulous mini suite facing forward with amazingly large balcony. Great crew and customer service during this and back to back cruise following. Sabatini’s was excellent as usual. Main dining room very accommodating and dinner choices always outstanding. Alfredo’s pizza restaurant staff great. Large ship with many bars to choose from and medallion even allows ...
I read a lot of negative reviews on the Diamond Princess recently, so I went into this cruise with managed expectations. That being said, I had an amazing cruise with very little criticism.
This was a 7-night Mexican Riviera cruise to Loreto, La Paz and Cabo San Lucas. Our Loreto port was canceled due to high winds, so we rerouted to Mazatlán for our first stop.

I just got off a 7 day Caribbean cruise on the Ruby Princess out of Galveston. My adult son and I had an absolutely wonderful time. It was our first time on Princess. I bid on an upgrade from a Club Class Mini Suite to a Premium Suite and was upgraded to a Penthouse! You can imagine how thrilled we were. Embarkation was seamless. We were in our cabin by 1:00 p.m.
The ship is so beautiful ...
Our group, seven in all. took this cruise to the Caribbean on Princess. Two of our group were first time cruisers, the other five had cruised before. We had a great experience on the cruise. The service was exceptional, both in the dining rooms and bars. Cabins were, for the most part, clean. (We found some debris on the floor of one cabin, but by and large, things were clean.)The ...
We are old (60+), and huge cruise fans. My DIL selected this cruise as a mid-winter break, and we just tagged along.
Pre-Cruise Hotel:
The thing about Fort Lauderdale hotels is that they either cost a LOT (and come with amenities like fresh-smelling rooms, clean towels and possibly an attached restaurant), or they cost less than a lot (and you wake repeatedly through the night, listening to ...
I went on this cruise as a precursor to going on the Grand Princess to Alaska. I am taking some friends with us to Alaska and wanted to see how these older ships compare to the newest ones, and the Diamond happens be in the older category. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well maintained the Diamond is. My last Princess cruise was on the Royal 3 years ago and though it was one of the newer ...
