Great cruise to SE Asia. Staff and food were great. Everything was well organised but be aware of costs. They soon mount if you are not careful. Watch out for the tours!
Embarkation
2 out of 5
The process was slow with many passengers having to wait over 90 minutes to check-in as priority was given to Elite passengers. This we understood but there must be a fairer way of checking in. It was Singapore so very hot and to keep people standing for over 90 minutes was not good. The check-in desks were barely wider than my shoulders and therefore you can imagine the struggle to get heard.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Excellent. All the dining rooms were good. Sabatinis Italian was superb. The food and service second to none.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The normal onboard activities which we did not really take an interest in. We did the odd quiz which was good.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The Princess entertainment was great but some of the guest entertainers were below par. A guy blowing bubbles as a main show was poop with many walking out. Two comedy Spaniards playing guitar was also poor with one of the men getting a little close to the 'sexual' mark! There were also Tribute acts which were fantastic.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Only a 4 star due to a Maitre D' being rude. All other staff were excellent!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
No problems at all.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Great cabin just after of the bridge. The new mattress was superb. Slept like logs!
Ship tip
Please watch the organised shore excursions. Many were overpriced and over rated. There were a number of complaints laid to the desk.
Organised excursion to Bangkok. 2.5 hour coach trip each way was not good with a guide who did not tell us much about Thailand. Bangkok was very interesting.
Loved HK but the excursions were overpriced and poor. We did back to back tours at a total of USD$600! Definitely not worth the money. Complaints have been placed with Princess.
