Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Buffet was absolutely wonderful. I could not bilieve how many different options of food they had and what a options!!! They had pretty much everything you can think of. We been on a few different cruises, but nothing like it. OMG OMG so damn good and tasty, everyday they had shrimp, I LOVE shrimp, so I was in haven.πŸ€πŸ£πŸ—πŸ–πŸ₯“πŸ•πŸ”πŸ₯ŸπŸœ

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
This is the only issue I have with Princess, they do not offer a varity and fun activities, maybe because of the majority of older β€œage” on board...they should have more to offer. I LOVE the ship, Royal Princess is gorgeous, the bars, the food, superb services, pool... just need a little fun change

Entertainment

Fantastic service an staff no matter where we were on the ship. They were always nice, smiling, plesant, professional and making sure we were fine.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Fantastic layout and design, love the modern design. i love how bright is everywhere inside the ship. Always clean and well maintained

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our balcony cabin was nice, good size for both of us. I thought the bathroom was a little small, no make up mirror.

Ship tip

There is not much fun cruise or entertainment as carnival. Princess need to have more fun options, better enterainment other then old stuffπŸ€£πŸ˜€

Ports of call

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
Port is great, lots of little stores around, easy access. We had a All inclusive Day Beach at Marival resort and it was fantastic. We were greated with champagne and mimosas at the resort, then we went to the beach an pool. This resort is huge, there is probably 4 pools to choose from. We had a great time at the pool, enjoying the sun and drinks, buffet was pretty good too.

Mazatlan, Mexico

5 out of 5
Maztlan was terrific, I love that the buses are waiting right there when u get off the ship, no long walk. We did city tour with Hoppon Hoppoff bus and it was pretty cool, had dinner in one of the restaurants by the beach, drank margaritas, little shopping and back to ship.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Fantastic, easy and fast disembarkation, no problems at all. πŸ˜€β€οΈ

How comfortable is the pool deck at sea, regarding the temperature?, we’re used to Caribbean cruising, I get the impression it’s not very warm? And, is the β€œSanctuary” a few just to use, or is the fee just for the cabanas?
