Review summary

We had a very relaxing time on the Discovery Princess. We ate well, got to see a couple of ports in Mexico, and the weather down there was great in mid-October

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was smooth and speedy after completing all the requirements for Green Lane beforehand

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Great buffet selection, main dining, and especially specialty restaurants. We ate at all of them, but the multi-course meal at Sabatini's was a highlight -- and they let you order a specialty pizza from Gigi's, which is also great.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The pools are very nice, love being able to watch movies or concerts from the pool deck. The gym is well equipped and offers good classes.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Princess always does great variety shows. The DJ was pretty solid throughout. And they had a pair of violinists - The Gold Strings Duo - who performed awesome violin renditions of contemporary pop music.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service is always friendly on Princess.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The mini-suite was a nice step up from a Balcony room, without being as expensive as a full suite.

Ship tip

The Premier package is well worth it

We recommend dinner at Bar Esquina

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did an excursion to an all-inclusive resort, the Marival, which was a pretty good way to spend half a day at the beach.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
It was easy. We enjoyed a leisurely breakfast in the dining room, then got off the ship with the group after our group was called. Picking up suitcases was easy.
