Princess Cruises - Island Princess Reviews

Very satisfied.

OLD SHIP, WORST FOOD QUALITY & SELECTION, RUDE STAFF.

I was disappointed by the change in route. The port call to Juneau Alaska was to be a highlight, but it was cancelled due to propeller repairs having to be made. The pittance that was offered in compensation was inadequate. The food was mediocre and added to the disappointment. I had always heard how the food on cruises was extraordinary but I found it to be mostly cafeteria quality. This was my first cruise and will likely be my last.

Great weather, great place, great steward, great 50th anniversary celebration. love-24-7.com

Everything was awesome. Loved it.

Met some wonderful waiters & attendants, ate great food, had a great room surrounded by good friends and family at a good price. We had a ball.

Not enough time in the interior of Alaska - felt too rushed. The hotel in Mt. McKinley did not have a/c and it was in the 90's when we were there. Island Princess ship was just "ok" - the casino staff was excellent as well as a few others but overall a disappointment. They also ran out of Captain Morgan Rum - not a big deal but when you have spent $500 for the drink package I would expect the ship to be stock with common liquor.

We Were winners! We enjoyed "Elite" privileges for the length of the cruise. My husband also won a bottle of champagne. Our dinner companions were nice and friendly. Two unavoidable but unpleasant circumstances plagued us for most of our trip. The ship arrived with Norovirus and then continued (we understood) with all the cleaning and disinfecting which I think affected the preparation and presentation of the buffet. The second was the strong winds causing high waves and deep swells where we felt the ocean spray on the 15th deck. It all was worrisome but we were physically unaffected. We would go back on Princess but on a newer ship.

There certainly was a thrill being about to pass through the Atlantic side locks into Lake Gatun. The Island Princess is a beautiful ship and our balcony room was very nice. The food on the ship just was OK and we even went to both specialty restaurants and that didn't get better. The casino was smaller than we expected. We usually enjoy that as a respite on sea days but we even skipped going there for two of the days at sea because it lacked luster. We have cruised on Celebrity and Royal Caribbean before and feel that either one of those are better than Princess.

Nice ship, great staff and food.

Shore excursion spots fine but Asian/Indian Vegetarian food was not up to par with taste. We had about 14 Vegetarian in our Group.

Everything is just right and beautiful.

The cruise lines are all different. Some things we liked about Princess and some things others did better. Also the ships are all different

Very, Very, Very Good!!!

Disappointed with Princess on land portion of trip, meals not included. For the price it was no bargain. Even some partial meal vouchers would have been nice. It cost $400 for 2, and we ate least expensive items on hotel menus, no desserts or beverages.
