Review summary

We wanted something that was less kid-friendly without all the water slides, climbing walls, etc. I expected the Sky Princess to be more adult oriented and it was. Because of that, I selected the right cruise ship for me - though I've had better food/service on other ships.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
I felt like the food selection was very similar every day e.g., chicken in some fried version. I thought they could have done a lot more international presentation and preparation. The French Bistro wasn't up to expectations (not sure the Chef knows the difference between seafood soup and Lobster Bisque). The Crown Grill was excellent!! One big issue was the lack of wine selection. The per-glass menu listed wines the ship did not seem to have on board.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We did not participate in activities as we thought they were not fit for us. But there were a lot of things to do.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
We only saw the stage show - Rock Opera - which was excellent.

Children's Programs

We did not have children with us.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Generally, the staff were excellent and friendly. The only issue was the breakfast crew seemed a bit unorganized at times.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
I was not impressed with the design (too late for that - right!). It could have been more open feeling and not so many nooks and crannies. We DID NOT like the Movie Under The Stars. The loudness stopped us from using the main pool or relaxing in that area.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Everything about the cabin was excellent.

Ship tip

If you want on deck quiet, head towards the Retreat area. You won't be bothered (so much) by the loud movies.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and efficient.
