Logistical mess-ups. Probably won't sail with NCL again. by kkkemp

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

Worst cruise experience to date, though it wasn't horrible. Probably won't look at NCL cruises again though, but mostly because I didn't like the design of the ship nor the general ship philosophy. Never once saw the captain, didn't get the sense that the crew really wanted me to have a great experience.

Frustrating Start, Overall Good by tlc1972

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

Overall, Bliss is a beautiful ship and there's plenty to do. However, NCL dropped the call on embarkation and left many guests feeling cheated of a full day due to the late boarding times.

Good experience on board the ship/poor planning at ports by dannyhhaynes

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

In summary it was a great experience onboard. Beautiful scenery everyday and every port. A little disappointed with Norwegian’s planning at the ports and the fact that we were unable to go to Seattle. I gave them some slack because this is a repositioning Cruise, but the fact remains I spent real dollars for their cruise services. I feel like they under delivered on ports and the number of days sold. The late boarding in Vancouver combined with the half day off ship for customs in San Francisco made our 6 day cruise a 4 1/2 day cruise.

NorthernCalifornia Coast Cruise a Gem by buggy2363076

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Star Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

Had a wonderful cruise. Staff was wonderful. Having a full suite afforded many dining options and also received free laundry throughout stay. Priority embarkation and disembarkation also.

Pacific coastal cruise by leonardlipkin

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Le Soleal / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

It was the relaxing experience we craved, but quality of vacation so greatly diminished by the extremely poor dining experience

Coastal Get Away by IndianaBeth

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Ruby Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

It was a very good short get away. As a repositioning cruise it was a great bargain. (I used frequent flier miles to do the open-jaw air ticket.)

Royal Princess Delight by fatfreeee

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Royal Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

This is a nice cruise from a great cruise line. It is a large ship so wear comfortable shoes. My only recommendation is do not book an inside room. Spend the extra money and enjoy the views from your deck. As with all ships, the elevators are the biggest problem especially on the first and last day

Excellent West Coast/Pacific Northwest Experience by mald1983

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Royal Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

This is typically a relocation cruise, so the service and environment are typically less than the norm.

Ship: Nieuw Amsterdam / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

Yup. Short, but sweet. ----------------------> I guess I can't submit this short review, although I think I said it all in those 4 (four) words. Oh well. Software. U-No.

Easy and luxurious i by janet94195602

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Bliss / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

6 day 7 nights too short! It takes us 2-3 days to get in “vacation mode.” Also would like another port of call: Seattle?

My Extremely Average Cruise by shadoworks

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Emerald Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

The ship itself is a good one. It just needs some overall improvement in many areas. I would suggest trying another company for a cruise to compare if you have done Princess before.

Princess is King! by reciaseegy88

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Ruby Princess / Destination: Coastal - West Coast

This was a perfect getaway for my husband and I to celebrate 10 years of marriage. We left the kids with grandma and grandpa and enjoyed 5 days of relation, wonderful food, fun entertainment and top notch service. We tried a cruise with another cruise line and this one was much more our style and our speed. We loved our cruise and will definitely be cruising with princess again!
