Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was excellent on this ship, much better than the other two Princess cruises (Royal Princess and Majestic Princess) we have taken. This includes all the venues we utilized, including main dining room, buffets, and Sabatini's (Italian fare). Pizza was also superb.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Fitness center is very nice and appears newly appointed. Hot tubs and pools were nice and not crowded, probably due to older crowd onboard.

Entertainment

Did not attend any.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Service was fine, room and ship very clean.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
