The Royal Princess is a beautiful ship and we have sailed on her twice. The food is excellent and the entertainment superb. Our room was adequate in size and we had no complaints. The atrium was gorgeous and it was so nice to be able to sit on 3 others decks and look down and watch what was happening on the main floor. There always seems to be some kind of entertainment going on so one was never bored. The ports of call were all very interesting and if one didn't want to take an excursion there was always someplace to walk and shop when getting off the ship. We also found the Retreat Pool for adults to be a big plus. It was great to be able to enjoy it without kids running around. It surpasses all the other ships we have been on. I can't understand why it is not listed on your Best Cruise Ships. Surely an oversight!
The mini-suite was a good size with lots of places to store things. Two T.V.'s was very nice - one opposite the bed and one opposite the sofa. The balcony was a good size with a large round table and two chairs that could be made into chaises with the stool. The bathroom with tub was very adequate. We especially like the idea of no closet doors. It made it very easy to choose clothing.
