Review summary

This was our 7th cruise - the 2nd Princess one. Our 1st Princess cruise was so special but then the 1st of everything is special. After using Celebrity 3 times, we missed a lot of the things we were accustomed to. The ship itself was beautiful and the staff was wonderful, as always. The cabin shower/bathroom was way too small but we loved the larger balcony. We weren't really excited about the food. It was good; however, not as exceptional as we've had in the past. We were disappointed w/having to pay extra for several things. The Panama Canal cruise was enjoyable though.

Took the train ride and bus tour. Think that's where we went to the Plantation and it was kind of a waste of time.

Cozumel, Mexico

We were there before so did no excursions. Hate shopping there 'cause the vendors are so pushy. I went to the beach and enjoyed it.

Cristobal, Panama

Pros: Totally enjoyed the Cruise Director and his staff. The ship was beautiful and the balcony was larger than other ships I've been on. Liked the walk in closet.

Cons: The bathrooms were extremely small. I felt the Princess Theatre was too confining. For the 1st time in 7 cruises we really weren't that happy with the food choices.
