Fun ports of call! by kurtscarlson

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

We loved our cruise - great organization, accommodations, entertainment, ports of call, and food. Well worth the price. Too bad the weather caused cancellation of our stop in Newport. Next time.

New England trip affected by tropical storm by Fran1970

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

The first two days of the cruise were rocky from Tropical Storm Ophelia. Nothing that can be done about that. I appreciate the captain considered our safety and removed the first port of call (Newport, RI). I appreciate the kindness of the staff, but I feel bad as they all look overworked. The shortage of staff is what caused the delays in the dining room and the bars. Overall, this cruise met my expectations.

Fabulous Canadian Cruise by margal05

Ship: Emerald Princess

The cruise was wonderful even with the rainy days. We only had a few rough spots due to not being able to walk up and down stairs.

second cruise I've ever been on, and first time sailing Princess by amyz0912

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Emerald Princess

We had previously been on a Carnival cruise. It felt like there were more activities and shops onboard Carnival, but this cruise was more relaxing. I really enjoyed Dine My Way and the International Cafe. The New York cheesecake was wonderful.

Shakey clientele by geicher

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

The English speaking cruise guests were a minority and the very large Chinese contingency was lacking in politeness and need to use their indoor voice level more often. This elevated din on a sold out cruise really detracted from our enjoyment. The prolific saving of seats for large groups was evident and not addressed by crew.

The Itinerary was GREAT, the ship "not so much". by arward3

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

I would choose a different ship, if I could. The ships age showed and the food at the buffet was dismal. We overlooked the ship's age and food choices because we wanted to do this itinerary. The Itinerary was everything we expected and more. Ship!!!! Not so much.

Wonderful & Relaxing Hawaiian Cruise by dtd8888

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

Overall, it was a wonderful and very relaxing cruise. We were hesitant about going on a longer cruise, especially many days at sea, but were pleasantly surprised that we had plenty to do, and it was what we needed - anniversary vacation. In addition, we heard that it was 100% booked and Princess even offered us a good incentive if we could give up our cruise/cabin, but we decided not to take the offer. So, we were concerned it might be too crowded, but it did not feel crowded except for when attending some of the bigger shows. Those you have to go early like 20-30 minutes before; otherwise, you won't get good or any seats.

PRINCESS MISSED THE MARK by bbray7540

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

EMBARKATION SUCKED, WIFES MEDALLION RARELY WORKED, APP WAS INCONSISTENT AND FOOD/BAR ORDERS NEVER CAME OR WERE CANCELLED....OF COURSE I WAS CHARGED EVEN THOUGH I HAD PREMIER PACKAGE. RESERVATIONS WERE POINTLESS, LINES FOR MDR WERE ENDLESS (WITH RESERVATIONS) AND WIFE BEING COMPLETELY IGNORED ON HER B-DAY CRUISE. HONESTLY, SO MUCH MORE BUT I THINK I MADE MY POINT.

Not a bad cruise, but had potential to be much more by lostntran

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Emerald Princess

Overall, the cruise was not all that bad. Very limited in the shopping experience (Limited to five stores) food was ok, but could of used different menu items throughout the cruise, and they need a little more training for their managers, not responding to customer requests to talk to them. With all this, I do not feel I will be back to this cruise line. There are others out there that provide a better exp.

Awesome Cruise by CGrabowski

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Emerald Princess

Overall it was a very relaxing cruise. We just had issues in Cabo and not wanting to risk anything because it's Mexico. Our steward for the room was really sweet and attentive.

Not as expected by pearlgirl

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Emerald Princess

If we had to do it all over again, we would not. The days at Sea were very cool in the 60s very little deck time to enjoy the sun. The staff was not very customer centered. Everything was pretty much self service or you had to buy into activities. Not much to do on the ship, the islands were fabulous but next time we will just take a land trip and not cruise very disappointed in princess, they did not live up to our previous expectations
