Review summary

The favorite part of the cruise was visiting all the countries and viewing the beautiful countryside.  The staff was always very pleasant and went out of their way to make our cruise more enjoyable.  The food was very good and a great selection was provided every day.  Our cabin was kept clean and service was good.  We would have liked a chance to dance in the evening with music for ballroom dancing which I had expected a Princess Cruise to have.

Cabin / Stateroom

As far as the inside cabin, we had enough room but it was next to the luggage loading for off and on storage and was noisy at times during the night. It was kept clean and serviced at all times.

Davidlaw: The formal nights on Princess are what you make of them. People range from full on evening gowns and suits to cocktail dresses and button-ups. Some don't dress up at all, but you won't be admitted into the dining rooms without following the "formal" dress code. (They have their dress codes online if you want to check) Generally people are nicely dressed up though. -Liz
