Review summary
Disappointed with more things the cruise line no longer does. No skewers in drinks, no tooth picks and mints in dining room, trying to move away from straws. We love Princess and will continue to cruise with Princess, but at some point they may cut out too much of what they used to have that we will start exploring other cruise lines, but I don't know that that will be any better. Please don't take this to mean that you should not go on Princess we already have our next cruise booked. Sorry if this seems to be a negative review, its just that it's not what it used to be. The app is not providing a place for me to review St. Thomas and St. Maarten. I enjoy St. Maarten, not the new shops right at the port, the shops "downtown" Front Street. My wife loves "Oro Diamante" and always spends a good amount of money there with Mike. Best prices on jewelry and beers while you shop. There is also a very good liquor store that has vodka we can't get at home, with samples, "Vida's"Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Trident Grill
Food is always warm and good.
Symphony Dining Room
Food is OK, but not worth the amount of time it takes to get ready to wait to eat. Portions are on the small side, but they allow you to order two entrees, so that really isn't a problem. This is not limited to Symphony it goes for all of the Dining Rooms.
Prego's Pizzeria
Always good. Never disappoints, but would like a loaded pizza with the "regular, common toppings."
Ice Cream Bar
It could only be better if they gave more ice cream. This probably was one of the major contributors to my weight gain on the cruise.
Horizon Court
Good selection of foods, but sometimes the food is not as warm as it should be.
Crown Grill
Nice meals, but seems to be less than it previously was.
Crooner's Bar
This is always one of our favorite places to hang, this cruise the entertainment was a little weak.
Calypso Cove
Nice assortment of things to buy.
Onboard Activities
Entertainment
Movies Under The Stars
We love Movies Under The Stars, unfortunately the choices this cruise were not as good as on past cruises and if you do two one week cruises back to back, you get pretty much the same movies for the two weeks.
