Review summary

Explore and don't be scared to ask questions and tell the staff when they make a mistake they tend to quickly fix it

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Very slow and crowded but once I got on the ship it was fine

Ship experiences

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Very good wish the comedy show was better but wonderful otherwise the show Bravo was wonderful and included a guest star named Caroline Miller and she was an opera singer

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Very nice and helpful when you need it

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The layout of the ship was slightly confusing but after a day or 2 I got used to it but I've noticed she is a very clean ship for her age and is comparable to newer princess ships

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

I had a standard balcony cabin it was nice and the bathroom was small compared to hotels and houses but it's what I expected and otherwise it was perfect

Ship tip

Go to the Gameshows as they tend to be very funny

If you learned the ship layout when you cruise with Princess again, you won’t have any problem navigating the other Princess ships. The basic layout is the same from the Grand Princess to the Enchanted Princess!

I love your comment abut letting the staff no about problems and giving them a chance to fix it. So many people won't say anything which doesn't help the staff. (If they don't know it's a problem they can't shine) Then those people will post bad reviews and the cycle continues.
