Alaska - Inside Passage Cruise Reviews

It was very nice to be onboard a new ship. We really enjoyed the balcony in our stateroom and the room steward was awesome. We were really looking forwards to the dining yet were very disappointed. We dined at Ketchikan dining nightly. Seems they had an overflow of tiny baby prawns they were trying to make us eat every single meal. The selection was minimal, they did not adhere to my food allergies (except once) and over all was a waste of our time. The buffets, mediocre at best with the same stuff day after day. It was like being stuck in a Golden Coral time loop. Needless to say, the food presentation was great but the taste and temperature of the food was a 4 out of 10 on the best day. Then we tried slices pizza. It was decent pizza but they would not make us a vegetarian pizza. 3 different days my wife requested one and they acted like they either were not allowed to or did not have the ingredients. Weird considering the ingredients are all the same that are on the salad bar in buffets. Then the Salty dog grill. WOW! This is by far, the worst hamburger I have ever had. How can anyone with the product, the facility and the customer base readily waiting make something so simple taste so badly. I was in shock and spit out the 2nd bite. The executive chef needs to take some time off, retire or spend time in Vegas and learn how these meals should be prepared. It reminds me of the local culinary school where they have wonderful presentations and display them in the windows on the street but you cannot eat the product. Looks great, taste like crap! Stay away from the spa. They ended up charging me $500+ for vitamins I merely spoke with them about and did not confirm I wanted them. A week after returning home, a 6 month supply arrived and explained the $500+ overage on my room charges. Although I reached out to Princess on 6/2/22, they have not replied and there is no way to see the itemized bill in my online profile. They got the money, they could care less about me now. It is ok, I will not be back, ever!!!

This ship needs attention soon! There was also smoke in one of the lights which was taken care of right away after alert was sent out

This was my first cruise experience and it made me want to cruise again. My cabin was always clean and I knew I could rely on Felix to help me out. The international cafe was always open and serving food. Mikal always made sure I had my nightly selection of fruit. I enjoyed my mornings of getting breakfast from the Horizon Court and then heading over to the fitness center to get in a workout, before going back to my cabin to get ready for the rest of the day.

Won't do another cruise until the Covid-19 situation clears up

At first, we were a little disappointed and did not know what to expect due the Ketchikan port cancellation and limited stay in Juneau. Once we were on the Ship, we felt that something wonderful and amazing was happening. The Cruise personnel, service and staff, went above and beyond to make our cruise great. Taking into consideration all of the COVID restrictions for the past two years and that the cruising industry was hit hard by it, Princess Cruises did an outstanding job. we highly recommend this Alaska Cruise to everyone. We are planning on our next cruise already.

Wonderful cruise. I am glad that we went, and I definitely would go again.

nice ship, good food, good excursions, good shows and talent!

Second inside passage cruise - always a great trip. Best moment was the Drone Whale Watching in Icy Straights!

My grandson enjoyed it and I enjoyed having the time with him. I found the crowds on the ship overwhelming and would have felt more comfortable if they had worn masks.

Alaska is beautiful. Ship was clean, friendly staff, & plenty to do on ship.

Family of two includes elderly mobility limited father. Assessable room was a good size. Staff very welcome and friendly. Ship was beautiful.

Overall, happy with this cruise to Alaska. Next cruise we will check out other options for our vacation dollars so we can enjoy a bit more quiet time.

I loved spending time relaxing, and enjoying quiet time on deck. The cruise staff were wonderful. The buffets and dining rooms and bars great. Still came home with Covid, though.

We had a blast,we enjoyed every moment.we enjoyed the shows and games food is excellent and a lot of choices.

The cruise was very relaxing but need more activities that you don't need to purchase.

It was our 3rd time in Alaska. We opted for tours in two places not previously offered--the Tracy Arm adventure and the photo safari--and got to see Skagway and learn some of its history. All in all a nice way to mark my wife's birthday. (And yes, the wait staff brought a piece of cake and sang the "traditional" celebration song.)

This was a very relaxing cruise, which we enjoyed. Since we are still in COVID-19 times we didn't expect everything to be perfect, but Royal Caribbean and the Quantum of the Seas did a really good job. Our main complaint was the main dining room being understaffed for those even with appointments. The line to eat before 8 pm was a bit ridiculous. Everything else was nice, even though we didn't get to the Fjord Glacier, I appreciate the captain choosing safety first.

Heated pools? more wind-air blocking enclosures or higher pool enclosures.

Wonderful trip and beautiful experience. Alaska was so majestic and unspoiled with so many beautiful views. Would do it again!

Cruise was good but drinks and shows were not as readily available as Carnival Cruises
