Princess Cruises Cruise Reviews

We enjoyed our first cruise. We would enjoy going again. The cruise director was very talented. He was funny to watch in one of the games. He also sang very well in one program. Our cabin guy was a hard worker. He kept our room looking great. We loved sitting on the balconey watching the dolphins and seals. We wish that we could have seen whales. The restaurants on the ship had very good food. It was nice to sit down for dinner but we also enjoyed the buffet. The food was good. We liked the new pizza restaurant.

Service was great, food was great, weather was great! Our first two cruises were on Holland. We had always heard that Holland was the best, but Princess is just as good in all respects. I really couldn't tell the difference.

The ship was very nice;however, certain amenities were lacking--no game room and very few games available, very small library, no lounge chairs on the promenade deck, only deck chairs, the quality of entertainment was ok, but did not hold up to other cruise lines, and the wait staff while very good was also not up to prior cruises on other lines. On the plus side our stateroom was very nice, the food was excellent, and there was more than enough seating all around the ship. We would not choose Princess again, unless it was an exceptional value.

This cruise was something my father wanted to do for many years (he is 92). It turned out to be one that we all enjoyed. The staff was amazing and we all felt we had the best room steward. The food was excellent and the ship was always clean. I was happy to find it wasn't a big ship since my father has limited mobility and it made getting around the ship much easier. I will say that the staff was always very helpful and accommodating which made my father feel less of a burden (that was his fear). We were able to find shore excursions that my father could take but for the most part, we were a little disappointed in the areas closest to the ports. Aruba was the only port we all agreed was attractive and fun (even though we came to port on a holiday when the majority of businesses were closed). The entertainment on the ship lacked, with the exception of their staff talent show which was the best show of the entire trip. One thing was evident, Princess did an excellent job hiring,...

I was never so pleasantly pleased with my cruise on the Island Princess. The service was great, my accomodations were exceptional. The entire staff was helpful and courteous. How gracious to be addressed as "Madam" at every turn. Being a bit concerned about disembarking, I found it so well planned that any concerns I had were useless. I enjoyed the ports we visiited and especially the Panama Canal. I should have been better informed prior to sailing about the excursions and I would have selected some different choices. Altogether a wonderful experience and I look forward to a repeat in the future.

the cruise to Panama Canal on Island Princess was excellent. The staff was very cheerful and helpful; the tour organization was unbelievable. there was no waiting in long lines in the hot sun. Even the muster drill for lifeboats was well done and at the comfort and convenience of the passengers. The food was very good,both in the dining rooms and in the buffet. All in all, we had a great time, met some wonderful people among fellow cruisers. Highly recommend it.

One of our "bucket list" trips was to visit the Panama Canal, and Princess Cruises gave us some wonderful memories of the canal - and a lot more! The "at sea" days had many options for activities, including pure relaxation. The many stops were filled with fun and informative excursions. We went from Aruba to Cartagena to the Panama Canal to Costa Rica to Grand Cayman, and saw engineering marvels, beautiful rain forests, colorful animal life, and cheerful, helpful people. There were only two minor complaints. The bathroom showers were so small, that we had to step out of them when we dropped the soap, and the "grab handle" is set so that you can't avoid backing or bumping into it. The second concern is the setup for drinks up in the Horizon dining area. Ice is located around a counter away from ice tea, which is in the same bank with coffee and hot water. Guests must line up and "compete" with serving staff to access the machines, plus there is no water or ice available outside ...

Very well managed ship. The average age of passenger is probably more than 50 with some being in 70s. The crew was very helpful to one and all and made the cruise a memorable for us. Panama Canal was an engineering marvel and it was a really thrilling experience. If you are going to use bunk bed, ask the steward to align it properly.
