Won't do this one again. The ship didn't seem to have stabilizers and we rocked and rolled the whole time. The ship also shuttered loudly and pipes rattled. Very hard to sleep.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very smooth and efficient
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Drinks were expensive. Dining service was slow.
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Overlapping times prevented many activities. Had to skip dessert in the dining room in order to make the show. Princess theater was way too small.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Comedian and magician were great. The other shows were not.
Children's Programs
1 out of 5
Didn't have kids, but your program won't let me pick the n/a selection.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
Staff everywhere seemed rude and rushed. Rarely even saw our assistant waiter - he was doing bar orders.
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
Supposedly "refurbished" in 2017, but there were lots of issues. Some rooms couldn't get the A/C to work all cruise. There were broken tiles, lights not working, some bars closed. Even the mechanical system on the ship was broken so we couldn't cruise at regular speed and lost hours in ports.
Cabin / Stateroom
2 out of 5
Small and worn out looking. Cabin steward was not very friendly or helpful. Balcony was good.
Ship tip
Keep your expectations low - maybe that would help. We expected what we got in the past on Princess, and this ship did not provide that.
We were late getting to this port (due to a medical evacuation) but the crew wasn't organized and ready to bring the needed items ashore. Bars ran out of everything in 2 hours and the staff was rude.
Didn't get off the ship. Been here before, and because it was Sunday, we knew that lots of shops would be closed. Don't know why they would port here on Sunday.
I'm sorry your experience was not what you expected. We sailed on the same ship but found our room (deck 10 back) to be spacious, nicely decorated, comfortable and our steward was very friendly and helped us out constantly. We enjoyed the excursions we went on and would definitely do it all again. We did not find anyone rude. I hope you have a better cruise next time.
Are you sure that you were on CB? We experienced none of the negatives you mentioned. Only thing was the propulsion issue which you were notified about ahead of time.
there was a big storm with high winds, we were on crown princess and had same experience as you, not ships fault, celebrity diverted some of their ships to avoid winds
