Princess Western Caribbean Cruise Reviews

This was our third cruise with princess, after having a magnificent time on its sister ship, the Royal princess back in 2017 we thought we'd all get back together and try the regal! There were 10 of us ranging from 22-80 years old. We were all very excited as we had all just loved our time on the Royal princess but I don't know if princess has changed post covid or cruising in general. First ...

We are cruisers in our 70s and Elite status on Princess. This is the last cruise we will take with them as they no longer want to cater to our age group. We will take our cruise dollars to Seabourn etc who don’t seem to collect their passengers from a nearby trailer park. The ship is lovely and the food is still great. The service is amazing but why keep up the pretence at a dress code when ...

We chose this sailing for an 80th birthday celebration for my mother. We wanted to leave from Galveston and were hoping for a more premium experience than the other lines sailing from there. I don’t think Princess delivered though. First, the Regal Princess is a beautiful ship. Most of the crew were friendly and thoughtful. However, before I even arrived at the terminal, I expected the worst. ...

Overall rating - around 3.5 / 5 This was my 18th cruise. It all began with plumbing problems on my 2022 cruise on Island Princess. I had received a good will discount that had to be applied within a year. I decided to book a 14 night B2B cruise (from 1/28 - 2/11/2024) on this ship because I liked the itinerary and the ports would be new for me. Ship: Given that the Caribbean Princess ...

Our weeklong cruise on the Regal Princess to Mahahual (Costa Maya), Mexico; Roatan, Honduras; and Cozumel, Mexico was a mixed experience. The new Princess app and the website were both frustratingly difficult to navigate. The public areas of the ship were spacious and beautiful, living up to the ship’s name. However, throughout the cruise there was poor sanitation in the public restrooms, ...

I went solo on this cruise and there was a great group of people who organized several activities such as a gift exchange, duck painting and a slot pull. Cabin steward was good and there were plenty of activities. The Retreat pool was the best and I enjoyed the Enclave. Also had speed painting which was a fun idea. There were 4 different comedians on a 7 day cruise and the production shows were ...

The service was great and the crew were very attentive. Lots of people work on the ship and they tried very hard to please. The cabin steward kept our room clean. The waiters were very nice and did a good job. The food and entertainment were not that great. The dinner food was better than the food available in the buffet and room service, but none of it was that tasty. The specialty restaurants ...

The last time we cruised on Princess was a wonderful Panama cruise in 2017. After that, we decided we were done with cruising for a while until last fall when I saw a cruise leaving Galveston, 7 nights, Western Caribbean. It was in our budget, so we reserved a balcony cabin. The ship is very beautiful inside, but overall the cruise was quite disappointing, mostly due to the poor quality of ...

What made this trip was the itinerary!!! I liked that we didn’t have to sign after each purchase with the uncomfortable feeling of needing to tip extra with our special drink and dining package. The ship didn’t feel crowded even though it was at full capacity. The ship was clean and staff was great. Carpets in halls need to be changed or shampooed. My room needed updated blow dryer. My mom had a ...

We chose this holiday cruise because it sailed from Galveston, which allowed us, as Texas residents, to drive to the cruise port as opposed to fighting the usual holiday chaos in the airports. We generally like Princess as a cruise line (this is our 7th Princess cruise) and think it a cut above some of the other cruise lines sailing from Galveston. The timing of the cruise, December 17-27, also ...
