Review summary

Good cruise, not great CD but probably just me not liking the daytime entertainment, have had much better with RC. Would cruise Princess again but only because of port locations.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Even though there was an issue with an air bridge and this was holding up traffic in surrounding areas, once at the terminal check in was quick and were on board within 30 minutes.....

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Good food in MDR and World Market Place, just not quite as good as we are used to on Royal Carribean sadly. Service poor on our first visit to MDR but excellent on 2nd visit. Sabatinies was good and worth paying the extra.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Poor unless you like zumba and line dancing.... Didn't use pools as weather was not just warm enough however they were being used.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Very good shows, get there early for a guaranteed seat. Rock Opera and 5 Skies well worth seeing.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Service from staff very good, however Medallion app is very hit and miss. You shouldn't be able to order drinks through this in bar areas. The staff cannot cope with the amount of orders, drinks don't arrive which is annoying....

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean ship but must add the layout is not great especially in Fresh Market Place, very disjointed.

Cabin / Stateroom
