If you are under the age of 60 and love to have a great time, laugh, drink, socialise and be entertained then this cruise is NOT for you. It was 95% retirees over the age of 70. The activities and entertainment were designed to entertain the same age bracket. We are in our 30/40s and found the activities boring and the demographics were way too old. There was not even any background music playing ...
This was the worst cruise I have ever been on. I lost 4 lbs which tells you about the food. The service, excepting our cabin steward, were all people who needed training - from the dinning room where they rushed our meals even setting the next place setting before you finished the last course - to the customer service desk where no one knew the systems or could make a decision without it going ...
We are Elite with Princess and have never experienced as many problems as we did with this cruise. Embarkation was fine and smooth. We were told the rooms would not be available until 1 pm but we could go and drop stuff off in them. Our Suite was ready but noticed a few things missing. Those being the fruit basket, our second mini-bar and the pamper pack in the bathroom. We did enquire about all ...
I will preface this review by stating I have been on over 28 cruises. I've sailed just about every cruise line out there or sold it while I was a travel agent. I Just returned from 18 days on the Ruby Princess. We boarded in Auckland, which was the last 8 night leg of the reposition cruise that started in Vancouver. We Stayed on for a continuation cruise of 10 days which did round trip Sydney. ...
This is by far the worst cruise we’ve taken. Noise, noise, noise every morning starting at 4 am and lasting until1-2pm. Then after that time if still in the room now there’s running, heels noise from shoes. We was on the 14 floor. We complain they say we have to investigate, Internet wasn’t working, we was told we have to investigate. Blood on the sheets, we was told:oh not blood maybe food from ...
Toilet didn’t work correctly for 7 days, extremely loud fan blowing outside door for 4 days, severe vibration for 2 days. We tried every day to get these problems solved and it never happened. Staff that took care of the room were great and did try to help. Service manager sarcastic response. Shipboard entertainment was average. Food in the dining room was average but service was great. Ship ...
The entertainment was terrible. The food was okay. Nothing spectacular. The wait staff were excellent. Some even remembered our names. The price you pay for this cruise is too much for what you get. The entertainment was the same people all the time in different places and times. The one singer was horrible. I had to leave until he was done. Some of the staff even said he was terrible. In the mini ...
Princess was the worst cruise line I have traveled on. Staff were not friendly/helpful, food was not that good and was not labeled to indicate if it was vegetarian, many of the hot tubs were closed the entire cruise (and would have been nice since we were in Alaska), they included a mandatory tip into most of their prices which is deceitful (just give me the true price instead of trying to hide ...
Choose this cruise as we were informed that this was the best line for Alaska Cruise. How very disappointing. I have taken over 15 cruises (Disney, Carnival, Royal Carrib, Celebrity) and this was the worst.
Took a Princess cruise in 1994 - which was also terrible. Thought we would give it another try. Certainly never will again. Ship was not well kept, staff was not helpful or friendly. ...
We loved Alaska and the shore excursions we did there. Princess Cruises, not so much....
I wanted to try Princess Cruises because I thought the demographics might be more fitting for my husband and I as we are in our thirties. I'd cruised on Holland America and the service was great but definitely seemed a bit more catered to an older crowd. We were so disappointed in the service we received ...
