Review summary

The best thing we can say is that when I get home we will be book our next cruise on Princess.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
This was the longest lines we ever had to wait in BUT I believe it was due to the virus and although the line was long it moved at a steady pace keeping you and others at ease.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We are at all the MDR's and did not have a bad meal from pastas to steaks to sea food. We also ate at the specialty restaurant Crown grill and we would measure it up against any Steak house restaurant in town. The pizza place Alfredos was excellent as was the Salty Dog on the Lido deck. We were never hungry.

International Café

5 out of 5

Absolutely best sandwiches and pastries at sea, the coffee is tasty and we drank it as often as we could.

Crown Grill & Bar

5 out of 5

If we could give it 6 stars I would. The service was top notch. The waiters were quick and efficient but never made you feel like you had to hurry up. They were there for you.

Alfredo's Pizzeria

5 out of 5

Outstanding pizza and service. The outside cafe area was very nice.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Retreat Pool & whirlpools

5 out of 5

Love the adult wake pool area.

Duty Free Shopping

5 out of 5

The shops were laid out different than the others in her class the difference flowed really well. Love the deals the last couple of days.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
A wide variety of entertainment made it difficult in a good way to decide which one to go to. What a good problem to have.

Children's Programs

2 out of 5
Had no children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room Stewart Dennis seemed to be always working, he was always asking if we needed anything. Service throughout was outstanding can't say enough considering the extra work load they had cleaning and sanitizing continuously.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Of course a new ship is very clean. The crew seemed to take pride in that and were always cleaning. The layout was very similar to the other Royal class ships. Again the only issue was access to the adult pool area.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We love the mini suites. Roomy and very comfortable.

Ship tip

The Princess lines are very traditional but they do have activities for a younger crowd. Be ready to dress appropriately on the formal nights.

Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Very nice!!!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
From the time we were called to disembark it was maybe 5 to 10 minutes and we were sitting in our son's car leaving the port.
