Cruise review
I consider myself to be a fit and healthy 32 year old. Yet on this 10 night cruise I did not stand a chance !!!! I managed to catch not one but two viruses - gastro and the flu. So I was out for most of it and truly devastated. It was not surprising as staff do not enforce any hygiene protocols.
Passengers used their hands to rummage and collect food in the buffet (multiple ...
We have cruised before but not with Princess. The sapphire was an absolute disgrace. Our stateroom cabin was growing mould!!! it was dirty and decapitated. Mould produces spores which research has shown pre disposes to health related respiratory problems.
In view of the resent corona virus outbreak i would expect infection control and health and safety to be top priority. Shocking!!!
The ...
God what an experience... my wife and I love cruising and we have been on most cruise lines throughout the world. Last time we were on Princess 10 years ago and let me tell you....it was a great decision not to be on it for so long. Wish we didn’t cruise with them this time, but oh well... There are many other good quality cruise lines where food doesn’t taste like it has been on a steam table of ...
We wanted to visit those ports that were listed on itinerary! We didn’t like the tendering to shore n back. The line was too long!
Weather was not great, hot humid and the sea air smelled like fishy! Time to spend on shore was too short!
Got sea sick from the cabin being the last end of ship! Horrible cabin room design for disabled wheelchair accessible shower! Shower did not drain n ...
Supposedly a 21 day cruise……..
My wife and I have just returned from our cruise together with another couple that we invited to come along.
When we planned this trip it was supposed to be a gift from me to my wife and from her to me as a 55th anniversary present and our mutual 75th Birthday present.
It turned out to be anything but pleasant. Princess has lost all consideration from us ...
I've cruised on Princess many times and saw a great offer for this cruise. I'm sorry I took it, this was the worst cruise I've taken. My cabin was not clean; there was rotting fruit in the refrigerator and toenail clippings on the floor of the balcony. There was hair all over the desk, and paperwork that appeared to be from the previous cruise. Additionally, the wall base was coming loose and ...
We chose this cruise to go to Southeast Asia and particularly the ports advertised.
we found the cruise terribly disappointing. Princess misrepresented the times in ports. because of terrible tendering services the port times were very short in ports where the vessel anchored out. The food service and entertainment were disappointing. The quality of the meat was poor, and the meat tough. ...
Our friends talked us into a trip to Asia, primarily based on the cost of the cruise. I have only been on one other cruise(Celebrity), my wife has been on six or seven. We traveled with friends that just recently discovered cruising and can't book enough trips! We booked mostly ship provided excursions since our friend is handicapped. We had a year to plan our trip, my only health concern was ...
We booked 11 months before travel and were really looking forward to this cruise, we have previously cruised with Thomson and P&O and were fully expecting the Princess service, entertainment, food and generally everything to be better than both of these companies. How wrong were we.
Let's start with the good.
The Sapphire Princess is clean, very clean.
Our cabin steward Steve was lovely ...
We have done quite a few cruises with Princessand have been delighted with them . The new majestic was something we were looking forward to .
Unfortunately we found it very boring and was glad to get off .
When asked why things were not happening we were told it was meant for the Asian market even though Australian, British and Americans were the largest crowd on board . Sail away parties ...
