Review summary

Excellent cruise despite not being on the best of the Princess fleet. Also the food was sub par.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was wonderful. Very easy and straightforward.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The ship's main dining was good. The steakhouse restaurant was excellent. The service was by far the best. The buffet was not the best of the Princess fleet. Especially during breakfast.

Alfredo's Pizzeria

5 out of 5

Excellent venue and especially the pizzas.

International Dining Room

4 out of 5

The International Dining Room was okay, once I could find it.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
The fitness center was too small and outdated. Not enough space spread out.

Gymnasium

3 out of 5

The gym was small and outdated.

Casino

4 out of 5

Not the best, but then not the worst. Needed to figure out which was the non-smoking area.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The one show that I caught was okay.

Movies Under The Stars

5 out of 5

Love this venue! It's the best thing on Princess.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Excellent ship personnel and wonderful room steward. Showed me how to use the remote.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The layout of the ship was awkward. Especially connecting to the International Dining Room and the fitness center. Had to take two separate elevators. The common areas were well-maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was always clean. The size was good.

Ship tip

Look at the little map that you are given.
