Review summary
Pro's, Excellent food and serviice in the anytime dining room. Love the dinner rolls. Ship was spotless. Cleanest general bathrooms I have ever seen. Room steward did a great job of working around our sleeping habits and keeping our cabin clean. Boarding the ship was smooth for the amout of passengers that were embarking. Decent entertainment every evening and lots of activities to keep us busy. The crew and staff were the best.
Cons; A little late leaving Port Everglades. The food at the Horizon Court was often cold. Breakfast was slow coming out of the kitchen several mornings in the main dining room. The danish/pastries served in the main dining room were not fresh baked but tasted like they were thawied the night before and served the next morning. Ship thrusters were not working which meant tendoring into 2 of the ports and we did not get to stop at Princess Cay. On one of the excursiions we were rushed around for no apparent reason and were at some of the interesting points for only ten minutes or so. Princess refunded our $$$ for the excursion after we complained.
