This was my first cruise, and it did not disappoint! The beauty seen and experienced in Alaska was incredible! Likewise the experience on the Discovery Princess was great. Not happy about the 8 pounds I gained, did not think that amount of weight gain was possible, but I did it! The staff was great and accommodations top notch!
I would suggest that the number of times folks could sign up for events like karaoke be limited to give others the chance to participate.
Embarkation
2 out of 5
If I took the time to download my required documents do not waste my time requiring me to physically show those documents to you! Likewise segregate out those folks who did not download their documents AND stop folks from crawling under the rope line to jump up with their family! Here you failed big time!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
I gained 8 pounds. Obviously, the food was great!
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Everything for adults was great.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
We attended 3 and 2 were great (Illusionist & Rock Opera). The comedian was disappointing, and we walked out well before the halfway point. He just was not funny or interesting.
Children's Programs
2 out of 5
Children needed to be better engaged and controlled by their parents. Perhaps encouraging parents not to bring young children to events designed for adults would be a good idea
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Staff at all levels went out of their way to meet our needs and wants!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Beautiful ship that was spacious and well appointed!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Cabin size was perfect for two people and was very comfortable. Our steward did a great job taking care of us and our cabin!
Welcome to the wonderful world of cruising. Sorry you had a few issues, but sadly, you can’t control poor parenting. Glad you enjoyed your first cruise and Alaska!
It is like I wrote this review myself. I agree on so many levels. But, you did manage to enjoy the cruise. Wonderful! (I gained 10 lbs. on my very first cruise.). 😲
