Review summary

Great cruise except did not really like Mazatlan. Too many Peddlers that would not leave us alone no matter how often we told them know.  It kind of ruined our whole day at the beach.   But Puerto Vallarta was nice as was Cabo!  We did a great excursion in Puerto Vallarta, riding horses to a waterfall and snorkeling and lunch.  It was great!  We did Whale watching in Cabo and actually followed some wales for a couple of hours.  It was great and the tour guide was wonderful!

The ship is beautiful!  We love cruising Princess!  But I will say we much prefer the Carribbean!   The beaches and water are much prettier in the Carribbean.

But it was still very enjoyable!  A much needed vacation

Need to enforce the no smoking rule in rooms and balconys. The guy next to us was continuously smoking even after being asked nicely not to several times. We did tell the steward but it never seemed to stop the guy. Other than that the room was fine. They could add some more variety to the t.v. programs. Not that we watched much but sometimes it was nice to relax in the room and watch a show.

Ship tip

Go to the wine bar (Vines) and talk with Gideon. Super friendly and very generous. Get a room towards center of ship and near elevators. Much more convenient. Also, it is easy to get turned around getting off elevators, Red carpet is even numbers, blue carpet is odd numbers.
