Review summary

So good we have already booked on the new Discovery Princess for Alaska

Embarkation

5 out of 5
With the new Medallion class wow it was a breeze. Why the other cruise line don’t offer this is crazy. All of your info was on the medallion and you showed your passport, vaccinating passport and your negative Covid and you were on the ship

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The Island dining room was wonderful, great staff and food selections can’t say enough wonderful things about the staff. Crown Grill was amazing who would think that French fries would be so good. Also service was incredible Buffet well the good was the service amazing and they has small plates of all different variety. You got you food they served it to you rather than squeezing into a cafeteria line like Carnival. Negative breakfast was cold cold grits’s cold oatmeal and gravy that was not appetizing But inlets great and they would fix you a fresh egg it you like

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Lovely little flowers in all of the bathrooms and in the tables You could see age on the balconies and the glass on the balconies in the rooms should have been clean

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Wonderful extended balcony You could tell this was an older ship Furniture was worn and glass on the balcony dirty I wiped it off myself to see thought it We only had 850 people on the ship I feel like the steward could have cleaned those panels Also this was our 8th cruise very very small bathrooms wow someone very large couldn’t have fit in the shower +beds were amazing and lots of storage big plus

Ship tip

Enjoy the ship is huge and there are small pools everywhere plus hot tubs explore. Service is amazing maybe because of Covid and small crowd but wow. Already booked another with Princess

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

Thanks for the great review. We board this ship next month when it is coming to the west coast for a dry dock in Oregon. I assume it will be a little run down but hopefully clean.

Happy anniversary. Appreciate your feedback. We’ll be using the Medallion for the first time in April. Looking forward to it. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.
