Review summary

The Grand is starting to show her age and going into dry dock in December should help . A big positive was the EXCELLENT service provided by Amador and Micheal at table 175 . Great selections on the evening meal . a large weakness were the evening shows . The dog act has to go along with Steve Morsi and his outlandish gay jokes!

One item I and others questioned ,was the SRO for the British Invasion show . Filled to capacity-one reason being that there was only one show-BUT how does  Princess lines allow folks to come in after the show starts and even let passengers stand by the railings? Seemed quite dangerous!!

Gerry did a good job ;but at times was late in performing his duties.

Ship tip

Don't expect a great deal in regards to entertainment and atrium area is REALLY small for a large ship . Don't expect to use the sauna for it is constanly under repair . Great food and service.

The Grand Princess has been afloat since 1998, 18 years at sea. As long as she still floats and her interior is clean and liveable for my 10 day Mexican Riviera cruise, I'm 1 Happy cruiser. 1st and most I'm looking forward to spending this time with my Mom. I can't remember a time we had this much time for a "One on One". I'm also looking forward to all of the great food, tasty adult beverages and the wonderful staff of the Grand Princess. Loads of sun, fun and all the guests who will be on this Nov. 13th cruise. Yay !! PEACE ✌
