dcruiser13 Cruise Review on Royal Princess on Jan 12, 2019

We were the first group allowed on the ship. I made the mistake of signing up for the Enclave first. I should have gone directly to Sanctuary. We sailed to St Maarten, St Thomas and Princess Cays

What time did you get on the ship? Where did you sail? We have a suite in April and usually book the Sanctuary the whole week.

I’m sorry if anyone finds it hard to believe but it is true. The only night that took less was the night we went to dinner at 5:15 when it just opened. Maybe it was our waiter. We had the same one for three nights.

No it’s not hard to believe. We were on the Nieuw Amsterdam last March and everything was fabulous. The food was absolutely delicious. However, we had anytime dining. No problem getting a table right away but the service in between courses was horrible. Took us at least 2 hours if not longer. And our drink orders for just iced tea or soda forget it. One night they didn’t have any tables so they took us right away over to the set time dining. Service took half the time. It was great. We will definitely go on Nieuw Amsterdam again because the food was so good and the staff was so friendly, but we will do the set time dining.

2.5 hours to dine???? We have been on many cruises with Princess and Club Class has been our choice for the past 4. Never have we spent that much time dining for ANY meal. Sorry, but I find that hard to believe.
