Singapore to Australia & New Zealand Princess Cruise Reviews

We have traveled with Celebrity, Cunard, P & O and Princess and till now Princess was our clear favorite, but our experience over the past 3 weeks has left that favoritism in tatters! There were many negatives on this ship but I will start with some positives. The staff were all very helpful, polite and generally good at their jobs. The ship itself was extraordinarily stable with almost NO ...

This was our third cruise on Emerald Princess this year and we were surprised how much everything had improved on this latest cruise from Singapore to Sydney. The majority of those on board had joined in Southampton for the cruise to Australia. I have to admit we were tempted with offers as low as £1,800 for that cruise, but for us it would be just too long, as we prefer a maximum of 3 weeks, ...

took this back to back cruise, 1. singapore to australia, 2. australia to new zealand and the 2 cruises were so differant in value. Cruise 1 was geared up for the English, the food was very good, the formal nights exciting cruise 2 was very dissappointing, catering mainly for the australians who didnt dress for dinner, the food was bad, the menu limited and by this times the captains jokes had ...

This was our first cruise ever and we had expectations of a great time. We could not have been more disappointed and definitely will not cruise again on any cruise line after this experience. For a cruise that only had 2 ports in 12 days, the activities were uninteresting and repetitive. There is only so much towel folding one can take. We were also expecting a high standard of night time ...

We are relatively new to cruising with this being our 4th cruise. After being told how wonderful Princess is by experienced cruisers on previous voyages, and reading reviews that were complimentary in the main, we booked this 12 day cruise home to Sydney from Singapore as a Princess sampler. We understood Diamond had just completed a refurb in 2014 and were looking forward to a newish ship ...

On approaching the dock the sheer size of the ship was impressive. Boarding went smoothly as we were late and the bulk of people had been processed. The interior of the ship was equally as impressive as the size. we had 2 cabins side by side, one disabled. Both were functional, and the cabin staff were just incredible, always happy, smiling and asking if there was think more we needed. The staff ...

Boarding in Singapore was smoothly handled and it did not take long for our luggage to arrive at our cabin. Dining: This was our first experience of Anytime Dining and it took a few visits to the different dining rooms to finally settle on the Savoy with a wait team who were extremely friendly and helpful. From then on the Head Waiter kept us a reserved table. Food was fine but the ...

This was, principally a repositioning cruise and as such, sea days outnumbered port visits by 3:1. Embarkation at Singapore was one of the best that we have experienced within our 15 cruise career. Transfer from Singapore centre hotel to Stateroom C509 was just 30 minutes. The cabin was adequate and the balcony enormous. Great choice of TV channels kept us entertained while we unpacked. So far, so ...

My husband and I sailed from Singapore to Sydney end of October and it was the smoothest trip we have had. We had the automatic room tipping removed as soon as we boarded, but there was a 15% beverage gratuity automatically added to every purchase. Princess would not remove this, if it has to be paid include it in the pricing not as an addition. The Diamond is the largest of the Princess ships we ...

We sailed from Singapore to Sydney on the beautiful Diamond Princess. Boarding was so efficient and easy and our luggage was delivered to our Mini Suite in no time at all. We booked a mini suite as it was a long cruise but really didn't need to, a balcony would have been sufficient. We spent so little time in the cabin that we didn't need the extra room and the bath took so long to fill that we ...
