Review summary

A good short cruise for a large group. Especially if some are first timers. Everyone enjoyed their time onboard and found things they liked to do.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We were a little late for our boarding time due to traffic. Got processed quickly. Only wait our group had was for those putting gift cards and cash onto their S & S account.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Ate in the main dining room each evening. Food was ok, but definitely not like it used to be.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin was a nice size. It is a captain's suite. However several things were in poor repair or broken. But it worked for us. The other 5 cabins we reserved had balcony rooms. They enjoyed them, but only 1 plug- in so was a little difficult for them to charge their phones.

Ship tip

It's hard to find your way to the dining room. Even after we have sailed on her twice. You have to get on the right elevator. Also, understand it's an older ship and just go with the flow. It's what you make of it😘

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

4 out of 5

It was ok. The beach is rocky, but it was an enjoyable day after the rain stopped. Lunch was good. Glad we rented a awning.

Disembarkation

If I was reviewing for just the 4 of us that had passports I'd give it 5 stars. But the other 7 used birth certificates and we had to wait an hour and a half for them to get through security.
