Entertainment
3 out of 5
Singer pianist Funch and guitar Carmeon was excellent. All other performers were boring. Live band played music I didn't care to get up to dance too (mama mia, abba)
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Food waiters were great. Room steward was inconsistent. Sometime we would get one wash cloth sometimes two. Guest service was suppose to get back to us regarding our problems and never did.
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
Bathrooms were dirty during the evening after dinner.
Cabin / Stateroom
1 out of 5
Many problems with our cabin TV didn't work for several days. Toilet backed up several times. Bathroom floor was always flooded. I thought it came from the shower but too find out a week later that the sink pipe was broken that caused dirty water on the floor. Result bad odor and wet carpet.
Ship tip
Crown Princess is an old cruise ship with many problems.
Wish we had more time on this port. Cruise ship didn't have many ferries to take passengers ashore. Therefore, long wait time to get off the ship and back on. Kona had a open market on Sundays and made the day enjoyable.
We took an excursion to the blowhole and the bus had problems. We had to sit in the bus for 1/2 hour. I think this reduced our time at the blowhole and flea market.
