Review summary

Highly recommend this ship and loved the three days at sea!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Security at SanPedro was a bit rushed and confusing. Just had to show either QR code or passport. Whole process took 45 mins and we were onboard!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
I’m GF so my options were more limited. But they were EXCELLENT about accommodating me. My friend who wasn’t GF was thrilled at the food choices and quality.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
My only regret is that we couldn’t do it all!

Entertainment

4 out of 5
All musicals and singing shows in Princess Theater until last evening when there was a magician. Would’ve enjoyed a greater variety of entertainment. But we did enjoy the Deal or no Deal show and the smaller venues in Princess Live.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was working so hard to please people! They did a great job!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship tip

Mid ship/mid ship was a great location for a room. We were close to the mid elevator and could easily walk up or down if needed.

Ports of call

San Pedro (Los Angeles), California

4 out of 5
Stayed at Inn at 50 the night before. Very clean and family owned. Close to beach, grocery store and restaurants. $18 Uber ride to ship.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
A snorkeling tour to the village of Yalepa was fabulous! Highly recommend taking the short hike up to the waterfall.

Mazatlan, Mexico

4 out of 5
Beautiful Malecon. Go see the cliff divers!

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

4 out of 5
Tenders off the ship took a while. Port was easy to shop and people watch in.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Usually we just walk off with our carry-ons but this is the first time I used a transfer. Had to wait a bit until one became available so the process was a little longer than just getting a taxi or Uber. But it went very smoothly once we were on board the bus. Walking off through security was a breeze. Didn’t need to pull out your passport, they use facial recognition photos in San Pedro.
