Island Princess Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Sorry to say but this ship is ready for dry dock.

Princess cruise was an excellent experience for me. The Alaska trip is more for the mature age group, 45+. Don't expect to party like your in your 20s, although they did have late evening DJs. More of a relaxing, educational, sightseeing cruise with excellent food, service, and itinerary.

Very nice cruise with great views of the glaciers! Food was great in the main dining room and even though we used the anytime dining, we very seldom had to wait longer than 10 minutes to get seated. Getting on and off the ship in the ports went very smooth....ship was very clean and never felt overcrowded! Met great people and the ships personnel were very friendly and always helpful!

This was our first cruise and we will definitely be going again. My husband and I had a blast. The staff (especially the Cruise Director and staff) were phenomenal. I especially appreciate how seriously the dining room, from the head waiters on down, took my food allergies. I was able to pre-order all my meals to ensure safety. I’d recommend this cruise to anyone!

Food was phenomenal, we ate in all outlets except the Grill and the food was consistently good. Entertainment options (music) was not very exiting...... (have previously been on the Regal Princess on a Baltic cruise and the music entertainment was much better) Off shore activities too much of the same (water rafting, sip lining, wale watching) and there was no price / value relationship with the activities offered on other cruises.

The ports were great and the food was good. The excursions had great staff. The really disappointing thing was that we were paid for a balcony room to watch the glaciers and then were given a room that had a known problem with noise and were still required to pay full price for the room. They do not give refunds for a portion of the room cost because of these problems. this should have been a discounted room and they never should have put a full fare passenger into this room. Princess will give you a call back after you finally get through to customer service to tell you how sorry they are and that they are listening to your complaint - but too bad nothing they can do.

Need better communication for the App and upcoming activities . Did not like photographers work with pictures , bad background in glacier background pictures, they had the balcony divider in the picture.

We usually prefer the balcony but choose an obstructed view cabin, and couldn't have been a better choice. Perfect location to all the amenities of our choice. The crew and staff were all excellent as usual sailing with Princess. Weather could have been a bit better but we are on holidays so make the best of every moment even when it rains.

We enjoyed our Alaska trip so much , Highly recommend land and cruise trip ,

Everyone should go on this cruise to see the amazing beauty of this part of the world. The sheer size of the mountains and glaciers is unbelievable, I cannot believe it and I was there! There is so much wilderness, it really gives you a new perspective on life.

It was a very fun cruise I ate way to much I shopped a lot I had a really fun time on the tours I went on and I cant wait tell my next cruise

Each day was better than the previous one. One Adventure after another! It was truly the trip of a lifetime. Would love to go back one day. Crew and staff were extremely attentive. Cruising Glacier Bay was my favorite day on board the ship. We opted to go on the sanctuary deck. What a wonderful experience

We just completed a Gulf of Alaska cruise. It was wonderful. The crew treated us like the guests we were. Our cabin Stuart was very attentive anything we needed he got for us. We had a balcony cabin and the views were excellent. Princess Cruises offered a naturalist on the ship. He pointed out wildlife and told us about secret spots to view from the ship. We cannot say enough wonderful things about the ship and crew.

Great ship, lucky enough to be upgraded to balcony. Some of the best entertainment I have ever seen on Princess. Throughly enjoyed this cruise to Alaska.

A nice time. 1 week is perfect. The food is great and the staff is lovely. College Fjord was the best part.

The 7 day cruise and 5 day wilderness lodges was awe inspiring.

The Vancouver-Hoonah-Juneau-Skagway-Anchorage itinerary provided a nice mix of old and new Alaska sights, sounds and scenery. Glacier Bay was spectacular, but our cruise dates gave us the luxury of sunny warm weather to really enjoy the outdoors. Whale watching, ATV riding, helicopter trips and dogsledding are all memorable events that were positively impacted by the 70 degree weather we were graced with during these excursions. The Island Princess is a beautiful smaller ship that travels nimbly in and about the fjords and glaciers. The Cruise staff was polite and very accommodating, with our South African Cruise Director, Callie, earning high marks for humoring the older crowd on board. The endless food opportunities need to be tempered by the engineering marvel on display in the ship's bathrooms. The showers are not designed for larger bodies and made this writer homesick for my home's Rainforest after a few days. Making up for the bathroom was the bedding. Princess has outfitted the staterooms with an extraordinary combination of high thread counts and pillow top mattresses. All in all, our cruise was amongst the best we've experienced. If you are willing to pay for the finest large ship cruising available today, I highly recommend the Princess Cruise line.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Cruise /land tour at the Princess Lodges! Perfect weather.. The food was great, especially in the dining room. Perfect combination if Ports. Alaskan informational segments on board were very interesting and informative! Mark was awesome! Alaskan husky puppies brought on board at one port... Also had a GREAT workout with Zumba in the mornings!

This was a great cruise! The Island Princess is a very well thought out ship, and perfect size for a cruise to Alaska. The amazing staff onboard were always very pleasant and attentive and the itinerary was amazing. Great ports, perfect weather, could not of been happier with our Cruise to Alaska with Princess.

Our cruise was wonderful. Wish we would have went one week later as they had all the nice sunny weather! I would cruise Princess again!!
