We have sailed with Princess in the past and were anxious to get back on board. We left San Francisco rather late (not sure what the holdup was), burt experienced going under the Golden Gate Bridge at twilight! How crazy was that! Then it was off into the wild blue seas, which got my husband completely seasick for the next two days.
Regardless, the Medallion system worked great, although I ...
Great cruise experience. Helped by great weather. Were able to sunbathe for all but the last day.
Despite embarcation being at the old pier we found it seamless and worth the effort on the app up front.
The app and wifi worked perfectly.
Food was superb in the MDR we used the one near vines. Good quality. Perfect portion.sizes and brilliant service.
We went to Sabatinis twice. Food and ...
I just got back home around midnight from my first Ruby princess cruise . I cannot say enough about the kindness of the crew , wow , that was the real highlight of this cruise . I've cruised other cruise lines before and the staff was great but the crew on the princess exceeded all that . They took such good care of us . And the food was so so good . I loved the naturalist Mark Harris's ...
After waiting two years to cruise again, due to Covid, we had a wonderful, relaxing experience. Thank you Princess and your staff for all the pleasentries onboard. Patient staff who interact with many guests from all nationalities and cultures. Friendly interactions throughout the trip. An accommodating resort on the open seas with all your needs met. If you forget something, like a toiletry, ...
We chose this sailing for extra sea days vs LA departures, as well as the back to back with a Mexican Riviera sailing. We booked very close in due to the dynamic nature of travel restrictions but were pleased to find a *wide* selection of cabins in every category. The ship sailed with approximately 700 guests and 1100 crew, resulting in an industry-leading 2:3 passenger:crew ratio, and *boy* ...
There were four or five occasions where our toilet wouldn't flush. Tried calling Passenger Services but they never picked up so I called the room steward. Problem was fixed in a reasonable amount of time but it's unfortunate that it happened at all. Also there were a couple of times the hallway near our cabin and the area outside Explorers Lounge had a strong sewer smell.
Our head waiter ...
After several couples mentioned how much they loved this cruise, we decided, along with 2 other couples, to take it and were absolutely delighted we did! It turned out to be above and beyond our expectations in every respect. Embarkation was a breeze as was disembarkation. The service was extraordinary and the staff bent over backwards to accommodate your every need. Loved the ship, cabin, ...
Arrived day prior to sailing and stayed at the Best Western, San Pedro. Great accommodations. Free shuttle to port next morning. Arrived at 11:00am and after clearing boarding formalities we were in the buffet enjoying lunch by 11:45am. Luggage in cabin at 1:00pm.
We selected Any Time dining in the MDR shared tables most evenings. Did not wait once.
Food and selection choice was good. Did ...
We didn't get a chance to explore LA not enough time the arrangement were great.
The best part was the embarkation and disembarkation process was smooth it was about 30 mins off however smooth in total.
The Ship, the Cabins & Dining area were very clear and everyone was very polite and courteous waiting on us for our every need.
We only made it to about 2 Entertainment shows our time was ...
Wanted to go to Hawaii with our granddaughters. This is our third cruise on the Ruby and I have to say since our last cruise on Princess, the food has returned to it’s past excellence. The MDR staff we had were exceptional. Not sure if this was because we had the girls with us or not, but we had amazing service. This is the first time we had come in contact with the kids program and both ...
