Review summary

Loved Dustin, PrincessCays and Atlantis. I don’t mind young people, I enjoy them very much but feel like they are allowed to take over the ship—hot tubs, halls, dance stages—very inappropriate behavior and dance moves on lido deck, etc. Dining staff very efficient and fun. Entertainers very talented.

Lido deck was always full of kids which was ok , but then the Serenity tubs were often full of loud, young adults.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

I was disappointed in what I felt some very inappropriate dancing allowed on the lido stage by fellow cruisers. I realize it is a “fun” ship but what I saw should have taken place behind closed, locked doors.

No kids

Cabin / Stateroom

Comfort and size were fine. Cabin wasn’t as clean as I would like to have seen it, especially with the virus issue at hand. We wiped down switches and door knobs and our wipes were dirty.

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

Nassau, Bahamas

Atlantis was great. Didn’t realize we couldn’t use cash most places there. That’s all we had taken which was an inconvenience.

We have had similar experiences with unruly youth a few times during a cruise. However we still have a great time. The staff have so much to do during the cruise, they can't be babysitters

Hopefully a little calmer in April. I just let folks enjoy their cruise and I enjoy mine.

I agree with you about the inappropriate behavior. However that is what has become of American culture and there isn’t much the cruise line can do about it.

Princess Cruises are calmer. A older crowd for the most part. The biggest party ship is Carnival.
