Review summary
Great time. Downsides: Always long line at guest services. Even on day before disembarkation only had 4 staff on duty, other days less. Dining room reservations for anytime dining were always filled by the time we called. It wasn't until the last day that I noticed in the small print that reservation line opened at 8AM. Never knew that or would have called at that time. Dining room service could be quite slow (20 minutes between finishing main course and received dessert menu). Some of the longest dinners we've had on any cruise.Embarkation

Food and Dining
Sabatini's
Excellent menu and food. Service good until we finished main course than after 20 minutes had to flag down server to even get dessert menus. She was serving our group and a table of 12 so she was stretched thin. Needed another server.
Vines Bar
Love this bar on Princess ships. They have wines not available at other bars. They provide small tapas plate after 5
Onboard Activities
Casino
Great selection of slots but pay schedule very poor. With all the time we played an money we spent you'd think that you'd at least get come payout. Never happened.
