South Pacific Cruise Reviews

Princess take your hat off to the amazing crew dealing with old ship Movies under the stars fantastic Food amazing very friendly ship Looked after the elderly and infirmed passengers very well

This is the second time we have cruised Tahiti with Princess. It was a very relaxing cruise, four sea days to start and eight sea days back. We enjoyed every stop the ship made. We went with fixed dining this time and requested a table for two, which we actually received. It was nice having the same waitstaff every night. Overall this was a rally good cruise and i would recommend it.

First time doing a mini cruise and time went by far too quickly. Probably would not do another one as hardly seemed worth the effort to pack and board for such a short time. That being said, the cruise served its purpose of introducing some family members to the world of cruising. They enjoyed and say will cruise again when they can afford to!

Had a great cruise oversll and we made the most of the rain and cold weather and rough seas, much better when the sun is out and its hotter and smoother. But hey its still a holiday and loved our cruise despite a few glitches!

Very pleasant and smooth cruise overall. Departure was on September 27th, an ideal sailing time for this route. Daytime temperatures were mostly in the mid 70s, seas were reasonable calm except for the first two days when some ships motion could be felt (not enough to deter any activity).

The cruise and the staff were fabulous, the food was pretty good considering we were on a ship. I would probably not recommend this particular cruise for a younger crowd around 20-30 years of age as it mainly consisted of a much older crowd.

The Golden Princess was an amazing trip I would definitely do it again, the service was awesome and everyone was really nice. And then once we got to the ports it was even more amazing , the days at sea are defenitly worth it.

Loved the cruise. Service was excellent. Would like the trivia quiz to be a bit longer. Will do another cruise. I did have seasickness and would like more information regarding the medical centre before attending

Unfortunately the ports of call where not the greatest, booked tours tended to be on the expensive side, getting on and off tenders appeared to be horrific at times, not a lot happening on board for elderly people, particularly on port visits. Given the ports of call and entertainment on board, I found 15 days was far too long, 12 days would be plenty for me

Would not recommend this cruise to anyone under 70. This cruise was a great disappointment. Majority of the guests were older people and it catered to the older people - from the music to the activities.

Had a great relaxing time. Plenty to do or nothing to do what ever you choose. Plenty of food and choices to eat at. Great crew. We had a great free upgrade.

Not a relaxing cruise, but very educational. Glad we did it.

We were really looking forward to this as it was our first Princess cruise it was a nice ship the food was beautiful and good quality compared to P&O however we felt the service quality and overall staff friendliness was lacking also there wasn't many activities such as bean bag tossing, quoits etc which was disappointing. We are not in a hurry to return to Princess but will try some other cruiseline but we did however enjoy ourselves and possibly could cruise again with Princess if there was a good deal.

Marvellous oldish ship. All staff were very friendly and happy to help. Balcony room was great. At Kiriwina island, some fool of a passenger almost started WWIII by trying to bargain down a piece of local handicraft by 2 cents. Some locals arrived with spears, causing the captain to call an immediate evacuation of the port. Great ports of call. Very good time on beautiful South Pacific islands.

Biggest let down. They kept taking money out of my bank account even after bill was paid and finalised. Now trying to get it back. Keep an eye on your bank account.

Nice week off. Relaxing perhaps include better coffee in soft drink package as other cruise lines do. After being on numerous cruises the art stuff is getting old.

A great time was had by everyone on board and will sail with Princess again and recommend princess to all of our family and friends that are looking for a great time on holidays

A short 7 night cruise up Queensland coast. We needed a quick getaway and this fitted the bill. Lots of retail experiences if interested. For us it was about relaxing, enjoying leisurely activities and meeting new people!

We wanted to show our Canadian cousin a bit of Queensland while spending some quality time together this cruise ticked all the boxes. Nice food, some light entertainment and a chance to relax.

Loved the cruise. Travelling in September gave us great weather for the most part. I always enjoy shipboard life and was not bothered by up to six sea days as part of the itinerary. Would do the same trip again.
