Review summary

My first time cruising with Princes but probably not my last. I love the vast international itineraries that Princes has to offer and look forward to exploring some of them in the future. Princes is now my number two cruise line behind parent company Carnival; I also like Royal Caribbean and MSC as well.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Hands down the fastest I ever experienced; 30 minutes from hotel lobby to balcony cabin!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The food in the main dining room as well as the buffets were good and the Crown Grill specialty restaurant was awesome!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

The Movies Under The Stars was pretty good, the lido deck was comfortable and the bar service was pretty good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Deal Or No Deal show was fun and the D.J. was pretty good; the jazz performance in the jazz club was O.K.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

All of the staff was friendly and professional, however my cabin steward Rodelio was awesome.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The ship was beautiful and very well maintained!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The cabin was very comfortable and cozy and my cabin steward Rodelio kept the room squeaky clean!

Ship tip

Avoid the mid-ship elevators during peak hours as they are often crowded; use the forward or aft elevators instead.

The Crowne Plaza Hotel is the perfect hotel to stay if you are traveling from out of town to the cruise port.

By far the fastest disembarkation I’ve ever experienced; got in line at 7:30 and I was in my Lyft headed to LAX by 8:00 with express check out!
