Review summary

We loved our cabin steward Cyril. He took excellent care of us and we know he did better than some other stewards. Truly he goes above and beyond and loves doing his job. Just a delightful young man. Special thanks to Denz in The Vines Wine bar. Also goes above and beyond and makes sure you are happy and comfortable. Our room service steward his name is Alan. He also was exceptional and such a delight for him to bring breakfast every morning- another delightful young man that enjoys his job. Oh, the stores on board...such fun! Special thanks to the handsome helpful men at Effys!

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Not bad. Highly recommend you have more poolside/deck side music and bands playing. This only happened I think 2 times. The one show Born to Dance was amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If not for that I would have only given 3 stars -but that show was awesome

Service and Staff

Disembarkation

Process took way so long. How is the color coding determined on as to when you will leave? I just wonder why we were the last group. Some preference should be given if you have a higher end cabin.

Does anyone who was on the Grand Princess in the last month , notice if they were selling wine packages? The cruise that we will be going on in just a few days is 10 days. Thanks everyone.
