Star Princess

Our 1st ocean cruise and it was very nice. The staff is wonderful, room very clean. Restaurants were good. Had a good time.

This run to Cabo with an overnight is a great itinerary. I love the fact that you get two days in Cabo. But this was overshadowed by the problems on the ship. The air conditioning on nearly every floor went out for two days during the peak humidity near Cabo. The food on the ship with the exception of the pizza and the burgers was very poor. Some of the staff are rude. And the drinks are overpriced.

Got on with no problem, had a great time, got off with no problem.

Our cabin steward, Darwin Rodriguez, was truly exceptional. So too was our dining waitress, Zayda. The two formal nights are a joke. Princess does not enforce their rules on diners to wear anything remotely resembling formal attire. Really, anything goes, much to the detriment of those who adhere to their dress code. Some of us may be paying airline surcharges for bringing formal attire, and this is infuriating. It it past time to do away with formal nites, given lack of enforcement.

This is my second Alaska cruise but the first time I visit Hubbard Glacier and Marjorie Glacier (inside Glacier Bay). These two days made the entire trip for us. I highly recommend itinerary! The Star Princess is an old ship but it is kept well. There is a lot of maintenance and cleaning in the common areas constantly. Its a smaller ship but it was just the right size for us.
