Service and Staff

5 out of 5
2nd trip on Princess and the staff to passengers ratio make it worth the cost. Staff were attentive to your needs without being pushy.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ocean Medallion and Ocean compass portals made navigation around ship easy, not to mention having similar layout to Royal Princess made it easy as well.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Mini-Club class was well worth the upgrade. Extremely more spacious than extended balcony

Ship tip

You can find great on board deals when cruising ship that is doing its final Caribbean cruise before leaving for Europe, so

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Port is very busy, so patience is needed.

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

4 out of 5
Need more activities for repeat visitors to keep it exciting.

Falmouth, Jamaica

4 out of 5
Dunn's River falls tour was worth the money. The Jamaican people were very friendly but at times aggressive in trying to capture tourist dollars.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Submarine reef excursion was beyond words in the sights and variety of aquatic life you will see. Do not do this tour if you are claustrophobic as the submarine can seem small to those who fear tight quarters. Grand Cayman people were warm and accepting of the tourist and not pushy from my perceptive.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Coba Mayan ruins excursion, though long, worth the time if you like learning about ancient civilizations. If you want to spend time in Cozumel for shopping, would not recommend this tour as you do not get back to ship until nearly 90 minutes prior to departure, else a great excursion.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very crowded and signage and direction as to where to go if you want to use digital passport app is not clear.You will need to get the attention of crew and customs agents to be directed to right line so you aren't wasting time in general customs line.
