This trip was my 1st experience working with Cruises dot com & representative Chuck A. He was great; quickly got all the required moving pieces & parts in place! He kept in touch & made sure all was well right up to departure. THANKS Chuck; we surely appreciate YOU & all you did for us.
Finally, while this huge vessel carried 3600 passengers & 1200+ employees, we never felt crowded. But we also always took the steps & avoided the elevator banks, the casino & time assigned dining.
Embarkation
2 out of 5
The embarkation was the most poorly managed "problem-laden" process I have ever experienced.The port was chaos, the people working there were both unfriendly AND non-helpful. Security was simply a joke. I realize I am being harsh, but trust me when I say that I am totally sugar-coating this piece of the review. Will NEVER go thru Brooklyn port again.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Princess Regal has hospitality down to a fine science and art!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Fitness center was fantastic; well-equipped, extremely clean! Went there daily. The Enclave- at the Lotus Spa was heavenly-all types of water & aromatherapy and 3 different saunas. Was beautiful, quiet, peaceful & again extremely clean! Excellent experience there. Just walking all over the ship & taking in all of the gorgeous artwork & design was so much fun!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We did not go to the stage shows. But the music, orchestras & singers in the atrium were great!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Again, the Princess staff -all, make you feel welcome everyday. Reminded me of better than being a kid at Disney World!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I was totally infatuated by the shop's stunning beauty...literally every surface was designed with inspire. I went around the entire ship taking pictures of floor coverings, lighting, railings, curtains..you name it. So Italian...made me think of the great Renaissance artists particularly Leonardo Da Vince!
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Perfect mid-ship position, lovely mini-suit gave 2 of us more space than we needed. Beautiful bed- Perfect sleeping. Yet oddly, the couch cushions were quite worn, so I guess I expected better seating. Otherwise, this mini-suit is perfect - close enough to everything, yet little traffic & no noise. Room was kept impeccably clean by Christine!
Ship tip
If you have cruised w/ Princess more than once like us (6 times, so Elite status), know what perks to expect because there ARE quite a few! So don't buy Internet access..it is included 😎. I know better now!
Met friends who live here & toured both the city and the coastal coves. Peggy's Cove- established in 1811...was breathtaking! Worth the drive for sure!
Was much better than getting on the ship, yet so many people disregarded the directions given a d dragged their own luggage ...maddeningly slowed all people down.
