Review summary

4th Princess cruise. Most likely last. The fact that Princess will not police their policy of not reserving beach chairs for over 30 minutes with not using them. People still put their towels on the chairs and many times don't come back for hours. Maybe 500 chairs for 3000 people is out of line

cabin was fine. There was an employee door just outside our door that got slammed at all hours of the night. It didn't shut properly so the workers slammed it to get it shut. I reported it after the 1st night, but it never got fixed. Requested twin beds but got a double.

Ship tip

Had an auto door close on my hand causing a wound. Happened at 0750 and medical station doesn't open until 0800. Waited at customer service bleeding into napkins. $137 to dress the wound. that was caused by faulty door. We'll see how that plays out. Don't get hurt or need medical help before 0800. doesn't

Did an excursion to a beach and got a free rum punch which is really some juice and very little rum. $99 for a ride to the beach. Others on the ship went in taxi for $24.
