Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
I gave 4 stars because bathroom is too small, shower can barely fit one person, VERY small. The room and balcony size is fine.

Ruby is an old ship but still a great ship, always good time hanging out at Crooners, Good Spirit and Revolution and Wheelhouse bar

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Mohagony Bay is Absolutely AMAZING, so close to the ship too, you only walk about 5 mins and you are in this beautiful private beach, adorable area and plenty to shop around. I swear I did not want to leave🥹

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
We had a wonderful relaxin time all day at the beach, I even git hair braded by this sweet funny girl at the beach. The port is so adorable with plenty of shopping options.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We been few times in Cozumel, this time we did the sting ray excursion and ut was fun litl scary to me with them swiming around my leg, but overall great experience.

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5
We take uber in and out, going $60.00 to ship always cheaper then from ship 80.00, but is cheaper then cab or transfer.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Amazing and easy, no delays

Appreciate your detailed and informative review. Princess is geared towards a more “sophisticated” population. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.

We went on her in January..relaxing time...some of the best live shows we have had in several cruises...older clientele so much more relaxed..

I have been on Rudy Princess several times and really like the ship. All my Ruby Princess cruises were to Alaska plus they were my first cruises to Alaska as well. Beautiful ship and great times on the Ruby.

Yup, the Grand Class (AKA Jewel class) are great ships for their time.
