In comparison to other cruises that we have taken, there were some obvious similarities as well as differences. Some services were great, some weren't. I will break it down (We took 7 day cruise with Coral Princess from Whittier to Vancouver).
Embarkation/ Disembarkation:
We boarded from Whittier, Alaska which is a fairly small port. Ours was the only ship. Luggage drop off and check in was ...
The food was never warm and not very good. Our steward was very friendly. The ship itself was not the cleaness. Poor entertainment 2 nights were ok. Not much to really do as we had sailed on Royal Caribbien and it was clean, good food, and great entertainment..
We loved Alaska but the ground tour the food was very expensive. If recommending a cruise line to Alaska I would not ...
The ports were great and Princess handled the arrivals and excursions very well. My husband and I enjoyed the touring and we have no complaints about the way the naturalist narrated the on-ship visit to the glaciers.
The cruise ship left lots to be desired. We had a mini suite and paid for club class. The first evening I spent from 11:00 PM to 1:00 AM waiting for a maintenance person to figure ...
Cruise was ok but there are major opportunities for improvement.
Regular rooms are average. Shower is so small you can't raise your arms to wash your hair without hitting walls and shower curtain. Room attendant was very good and efficient. We always had a clean room.
The Restaurant is good. The appetizers were the best part. The service is average to poor. The waiter watched my ...
We chose this cruise because of the land tour that we could take in conjunction with it. The land tour was very good: well run, nice facilities.
We had been on a Princess cruise about 30 years ago and were disappointed. We thought we would try them again, but again disappointed.
We had been cruising on a "more expensive" cruise line. (Please note my explanation at the end why more expensive ...
Our cruise started with a 3 day land portion. Sights were great, lodging and food were not. Rooms at both lodges were equal to a stay at a Super 8 motel, in fact our room at the Denali lodge had mold in the shower. Food was over priced and below average. We did a Back Country dining tour in Denali--don't waste your time or your money. 2 high school students took us back on a covered wagon, ...
Princess did an excellent job with the land portion of this and the arrangements. However the ship was very lacking in various ways. First, the food, I'd rather go to Red Lobster for seafood and Outback for beef than dine aboard the CP, portions were small and of poor quality. Numerous passengers noted that their requests for salt free meals, Kosher, etc were not fulfilled. Many of the wait ...
Just got off my first princess cruise and was not impressed with the layout or the mothership's (carnival)Ideas
