Review summary

This was our first Princess cruise. Their slogan "Come back New" is a great way to describe them. I felt very relaxed on board it was a laid back relaxing cruise. Enjoyed the Movies under the Stars very much and loved the added perks like nice cushions on chairs for the movies and bringing around popcorn for everyone.❤ Will definitely cruise Princess again. Our only complaint is a lot of activities are for much older people (but understand that Princess has older guests generally) We really enjoyed it,looking at cruising to Hawaii on Princess❤⚓🛳😊

All the food from the main dining room to the buffet was Great! We really lived the International Cafe area for a quick lite bite the sandwiches and salads were very good and always served with a smile. Excellent service in Dining room as well! Loved tea time in dining room and even got to enjoy it at the Sanctuary one afternoon!

We enjoyed the Magic to do show,however the theater seats were a bit uncomfortable, especially if you are a "fluffy" cruiser 😊

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is older but it really is being maintained in our opinion. We liked the layout and finding our way around was easy! Loved the decor of the ship all of the beautiful wood around the ship. The teak wood chairs on the side decks were beautiful, hubby works with teak ❤⚓🛳
