Review summary

Although there are loyal Princess cruisers out there we want a cruise line that offers better entertainment choices and good food. This was our 2nd and last Princess Cruise. We liked the itinerary and the dates worked with our schedules so we decided to give them another chance after our 1st experience cruising Princess a few years ago. Poor quality food and lack of evening entertainment doesn’t make this a company we want to cruise with again- there are too many other cruise lines out their that provide excellent cruising experiences , excellent entertainment, and quality dining.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Poor quality, dining room food unremarkable. Buffet breakfast choices limited, bowls of canned peaches and canned pears. Make to order omelets took 20 minutes on the buffet.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

Nothing much happening on this ship except bingo and trivia. There were 2 very good comedians.

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Musicians were ok. Comedians excellent. Opted out of the stage shows. In order to get a seat in the theater you would have to arrive at least 30 minutes before a show

3 out of 5

Bar staff and room attendants were excellent. Dining room staff average.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Cabin room carpet dirty

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Large balcony, balcony furniture worn and sagging. Cabin bedding was comfortable. Cabin small and offered no where to sit other than the bed or vanity chair that was on its last leg. Carpet was dirty. Had to have maintenance come to fix the sliding door, safe stopped functioning- had to have battery replaced
