Review summary

This was a good itinerary for us. Four back to back port stops made it fun and exciting. Weather was magnificent and outside of making a poor choice in Belize for the shore excursion, This was one of our best cruises out of the 14 we have done. Love this ship - it was our third time we cruised on her and will again. The service is beyond your expectation.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Service was outstanding but food selection was not as good as on other Princess cruises we have been on in the past. I found both the desserts and the main menu items to be just ok in terms of selection and had to choose the standard selections more than I would have cared to.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Fitness room was clean and easily accessible. Shows were very good but not over the top. Didn’t play games. Pool activity was standard.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows enjoyable - comedian was the best - ventriloquist was just ok.

Children's Programs

Don’t have kids. However didn’t see many onboard

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was over the top. Everyone was happy, friendly and fun. Felt like they knew us personally including bar staff dining staff (and we had anytime dining); the activity crew and the cruise and assistant cruise director

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
No complaints on the cabin. Super clean. Would have liked a sofa but didn’t upgrade to get one. Bed was too soft for me but I have back issues. Extra pillows helped.

Ship tip

The personalized service from the staff is outstanding. You feel welcomed remembered and appreciated in all areas.

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Went to 7 mile beach on our own.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
Fantasy Island beach and snorkel was one of the best excursions have ever done. The reef was pristine and the beach private and beautiful. No vendors. Felt completely safe and comfortable there.

Belize City, Belize

4 out of 5
Eh. Did a party bus. Not great. Will try snorkeling next time. The bus was approached by vendors and beggars. They pushed local purchases on board and were more political than I’d like on a vacation.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Cozumel bar hop which was a lot of fun, safe, excellent host and went to beautiful beach locations. Loved this port.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy and fast.

Glad you had a good time. Do they still offer the buy one/ get one free happy hour twice a day?
