Review summary

We really enjoyed a relaxing time. As always Princess went above and beyond to exceed our expectations. I could list a dozen staff members who pampered us like we were their favorite family members but in fact the entire staff were wonderful. We made new friends and can’t wait to cruise again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
On board within 15 minutes of arriving at port.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Excellent food and service. We really enjoyed Crown Grill. I’m not sure Club Class is all it’s cracked up to be but still excellent service. A shout out and thanks to Jon, Marko, Robert and Dohnu.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the enrichment speakers,especially Ann. All the activities in the piazza were fun. We went to the thermal suite every sea day and relaxed. The spa is wonderful.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Most of the entertainment was excellent, don’t miss the dancers and singers and musicians. It’s always a good idea to arrive early to get the seats you like.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone went out of their way to make sure our vacation exceeded our expectations.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
She is still a beautiful ship. Hopefully she will get a little sprucing up while in dry dock but she is still the white Lady.

Cabin / Stateroom

Romlan did an excellent job. His smile and friendly nature is infectious.

Ports of call

Ensenada, Mexico

5 out of 5
We just walked around the port and went back to the ship. It was quiet and peaceful. This town has done a lot to attract and support tourism..

Lahaina, Maui

5 out of 5
We went on the whale watching excursion. Super fantastic. We saw so many whales.

Honolulu, Oahu

5 out of 5
Rented a car a drove around the island. We really enjoyed the food trucks, the ocean and watching the surfers on the north shore.

Hilo, Hawaii

5 out of 5
We went to Volcanoes National Park. It was interesting to see the changes since the 2018 eruption.

Nawiliwili, Kauai

Went to the lighthouse and the beach.

San Pedro (Los Angeles), California

Went in the day before and stayed in Long Beach.

Disembarkation

It took longer to get an Uber than it did to disembark. Princess does an outstanding job with disembarkation.
