"Try not to put too much stock in negative reviews. Contrary to the opinion of some, Crown Princess does not seem at all "tired or worn" to me. Here's what I did see in my recent cruise. The ship is immaculately..."Read More

1-10 of 716 Princess Crown Princess Balcony Cabin Cruise Reviews
The ship is going to be refurbished soon, and a lot of the wooden surfaces need refinishing, and this is an older ship than others, but we had a wonderful cruise on Crown Princess. The crew was wonderful. The Cruise Director did just the right amount of talking/not talking. The Cruise Director's staff put on a wonderful game show called Hollywood Hiccups that was the funniest and best I've ever ...
We joined six other family members on this cruise. This was our second time sailing on a princess ship. Boarding took a bit of time and we had to wait quite awhile, but disembarkment was extremely smooth. We had an aft cabin, unfortunately it was located next to a noisy vent. Making it hard to sleep. We enjoyed the trivia games, but did not care for the musical productions. Our whole group ...
This was a first cruise for me and the first time in the Caribbean. I wish there would have been something or someone to explain how some of the options on the ship worked. The fine dinning was phenomenal! Excellent food and for the most part great wait staff! We always choose to share a table with others and got to meet many people from various walks of life! Our steward was wonderful! We felt ...
We have been exclusive to Princess the past few years in our cruising. I feel compelled to share my experience. Things happen but this was too much...
The ship and the itinerary: We are not fans of days at sea, we chose this cruise because there would be only 3 days at sea. The generator issue is a bigger problem than they admit to. Princess cancelled the day at their private island which ...
This cruise line will nickel and dime you to death. My recommendation would be to find an all inclusive line. This ship is in dire need of mechanical repair. not to just paint over rust to hide it from uninformed tourists. The carpet is stained the walls need painting . The entire ship needs an upgrade. Choose another one,preferably one where you know all charges before you leave the port.One ...
I was with a group of over 50 from our neighborhood. We did this two years ago on another princess cruise ship with much better results. By the time we left over 15 of us were sick. The gym area is ground zero for passing germs and not only were you it of wipes one day but there was NEVER any attendant in the area to make sure those machines were wiped down after use. Yet you couldn’t walk ...
We picked this cruise for the itinerary and length of cruise. My initial thought was that Princess and Celebrity are about on par, which really is not the case.

Ship and Entertainment: There are lots of little hidden spots to find a place to sit and relax. The entertainment is really good on Princess and there are lots of little venues to see the entertainment. Lots of music ...
The Southern Caribbean itinerary was very attractive, but we should have done more research on the ship, which was launched in 2006 and badly needs a complete overhaul and refurbishing. The engines are seriously in need of repair, as other reviewers have noted. The engines' poor performance slowed the ship so that one scheduled stop was cancelled, and we have been late in arriving at others, ...
We chose this cruise because there were three ports to which we had never been. Since one port was cancelled, we enjoyed an extra day at sea. As has always been the experience on Princess ships, the crew was very attentive & accommodating. The food was good & the service was very good. We had Anytime Dining & were seated in a timely manner on almost all evenings. The production numbers performed ...
The good:
Princess Medallion system is excellent, fast embarkation, easy room access, order stuff right from your phone app.
Ship based internet is now reliable and has good speed.
Caribbean in February is awesome. 85f and sunny every day is just what we were looking for.
Crew workers as always are giving it their best.
Loved Ford vs Ferrari movie on the big outside screen.
And ...
