I don't have to say much. We were so impressed we booked another cruise in January. Everything on board was much more than anticipated. We had heard that princess cruises were great. Absolutely

Service was wonderful. Everyone outdid themselves.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Very clean. The only design I think could be changed. Mount the shampoo & body wash dispenser on the back wall of the shower. We found it very difficult to obtain the product when the shower was on.

We had a group of 26 & enjoyed the Coral years ago. In fact, my husband bought a $1,300. Simbari picture on that cruise as a gift to surprise me. Long story short...it's in storage. I don't like it & he loves it. Lol 😂

Love love loved this cruise. Very casual cruise, not a party atmosphere.The scenery was breathtaking. A lot of people viewed the sights from the inside of the ship, but I took advantage, dressed warm and spent most of my days on the top deck.💕

Trip of a lifetime on the Coral Princess

Older ship, great entertainment and boring food.
