Review summary

When we arrived in Whittier, we didn't want to get off the ship. We enjoyed our room, the food, the staff, everything. Princess did an excellent job on land as well. The Denali hotels were very nice, and buses/transfers ran like clockwork. We are thinking about doing another Alaska cruise, and we would strongly consider Princess again.

Food and Dining

We really enjoyed the food overall. The main buffet always had a lot of good choices. Our favorite was the Crown Grill, which had delicious steaks and other entrees.

Onboard Activities

A nice fitness center that I used daily.

Entertainment

Good variety of shows and entertainment. However, some of the musicians were, well, not all that good.

We're retired.

Ship Quality

Very good. It seemed that there was always someone cleaning something.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We loved our aft cabin. It is very peaceful at the back of the ship as you look out on the wake. The mattress was a little soft for my liking, but the cabin overall was very comfortable.
