Princess is still a favorite with us. This was a fun trip with perfect weather. I would go again.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very easy! We had loaded the medallion with pertinent information. I needed a photo added and that took moments to do. Then. All aboard!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Overall the food and service was fine. The baked good were dry and or doughy crusts, but no one left them sitting. Service was as expected and portions were just right.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Love the stern pool. People used all the facilities as the weather cooperated.
Entertainment
4 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Interior rm stern. We had plenty of storage and room for two. Love being high on the ship. You get some engine cavitation in the stern, but for us that’s comforting. Shower is small but water was nice and hot. Mirrors give sense of depth. No complaints.
Ship tip
Getting off for tours was not managed well, particularly in Panama. Room was stuffed and many could not sit to wait. Be prepared with water and the like.
Busy port. Disembarking was a bit crazy, construction, two Princess ships with folks wearing same color tags etc. had a days wait for flight so tour was good time killer. Tour was well run. Aviary and Everglades. Delivery to airport with bags.
It was fine, we just walked around locally. Getting independent ride, have to go out the gates, and walk away from the port. Security guards very strict with locals.
Hot, be prepared. Old town and boat tour were perfect choice for us. If you cannot walk in heat, use the horse and buggy. Best find was the Free aviary just down from where we docked!! Excellent!
Got our moneys worth! The ferry ride through the small locks was Great! Hot! Sunscreen!! Full long day! Not much time or opportunity to see the lake, long wait to get off the ship, quick tender trip, right on the bus and away so no views of the lake. Otherwise we Loved it!
Thanks for your review. Sailing with Princess for the first time in Nov and I cannot wait. We have sailed with other cruise lines and Princess is next on our bucket list. If it turns out great, like I expect it will, we'll put money down on a future cruise.
