Sea Princess

Dining staff had bad attitude towards solo travelers. Food was no better than a cafeteria / diner. Nothing to do on sea days. Casino staff were great!

Australia was wonderful. We got to experience the opposite seasons of the Southern Hemisphere and differences in climate - hot in the north and cool/chilly in the south. Every port of call was unique and enjoyable. It was a long cruise but well worth it.

The ship is old and shabby and overdue for maintanance.Tho' I heard that only  the public spaces are going to get treatment. My bed was in need of a new mattress the carpet was thread bare. But the powers that be decided that all should be happy with movies under the stars even tho' the temperature was 15 and 16 degrees. They left the guest lecturer ashore(he would have cost money) and the promised book club did not exist. The food went from mediocre  to just bad. And with everything was the hard sell. For a 50 year experience they look like they are on their last legs.

The ship was average

This was my first cruise. I felt I was in a 5 star hotel with lots and lots of activities and attention. Getting on and off at ports was very easy and organized.
