Just to start, let me say I LOVE Princess cruises! This was our 6th cruise with them, and even tho this cruise had been out of commission for 2 yrs, u would swear they just did it yesterday....absolutely nothing went wrong, everything was perfect and our needs were anticipated and met...every....single.....time.......from check-in that took all of 10 mins, getting to our room, our luggage arriving ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary. My husband wanted warm weather and was very interested in seeing the old locks of the Panama Canal. While we enjoyed the smaller size of the Island princess because nothing was ever very far we really missed the international cafe on other ships where you could sit in piazza and relax, The on board entertainment was very good and the crew while this ...
Wow! The Princess staff were incredibly friendly, professional and upbeat. They were thrilled to be back onboard and it showed over the 14 night sailing. Over and over again, the staff greeted us so happily and were so helpful -- from the restroom attendants to the officers. It really was over and above in attitude and service. Great food, desserts. Medallion worked well. ...
We booked the May 30th Alaska cruise first, then added the May 23rd Coastal afterward. We occupied Caribe 510 for the Alaska leg, then added the forward leg when cabin E632 became available at a favorable price.
Preparation: Six new items had to be addresses by us, having never cruised on a Medallion equip ship. The new software was kludgy with more than a few redo's on our schedule weeks ...
I was presently surprised at how easy and seamless the Princess Medallion was!
It was just as easy as Princess had demonstrated!! It’s so easy to find your travel companions or order your drinks anywhere on the ship! Very nice addition!
After 2-years of not cruising because of Covid 19, our first cruise out was on the Grand Princess April 19,2022 we had a mini suite. Our cruise was ...
Another fantastic Princess cruise complete. We were on the Grand from LA to Vancouver in April. It was originally a 6 night cruise but 2 nights were canceled due to the ship going into dry dock after we disembarked in Vancouver. From arrival at LAX, meeting up with the Princess rep, a smooth transfer to the ship, very efficient Covid testing prior to check in and a seamless embarkation. Very ...
We decided to take a short cruise to see how safe we feel sailing again. We figured with an Itinerary that started in San Francisco (a short 1.5 hour flight from us) sailed to San Diego and then Ensenada and then back to SF we could always get off the ship and fly back home if we got nervous.
The worst part of the cruise was before we even got on the ship. We had been assigned a boarding time ...
This was my 5th cruise with Emerald princess. I was not disappointed. The staff was every attentive to all my needs, from the customer service clercks to the room stewards. (Ronald)
Mona In the Spa massages were mind blowing. her gentleness and attention to detail is one of the reasons why I keep returning to Emerald Princess.
The cleanliness of the floors was remarkable. the tables were ...
This cruise was a makeup cruise from the beginning of the pandemic, and we had a cruise credit to use. My daughter was traveling with me, and she hadn't been to California, so we chose this cruise. Embarkation took forever. We were in line for 2.5 hours. The ship was late disembarking the prior cruise ( we think) so it delayed us getting on. Once on board, I have nothing but great things to say. ...
-Foods:
From good to excellent. The serving potions in the dinning rooms are smaller but of course, you can always order more.
-Services:
Beyond expectations (state room staffs, dining room staffs, services desk staffs). I lost all my baggage at the airport, and get on board with just my backpack. Service desk people gave us $250 for emergency spending and three days later, all my ...
