Review summary

Our first Mediterranean cruise and we enjoyed it. Princess did everything they could to make it a good experience for us.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Good

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was average. Menus were repeated weekly. Food became boring after the first week

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We always find these things time fillers for us but we are in the over 55 demographic

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Again shows were repeated and some artist were good, others, not so good.

Children's Programs

Don’t have children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the staff just wanted to please you and make sure everything was good. Can’t ask for more than that.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It is an older ship but kept well. Once you get use to the layout, it’s easy to navigate.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Size and comfort great

Ship tip

Be aware they are not creative with their menus and repeat them every other week. So for us, who was on the ship for 5 weeks, we had the same menus over and over again.
