About Your Ship: Dawn Princess

Overview & Itinerary Staterooms Deck Plans Food & Dining Entertainment & Activities Photo Gallery Reviews
Princess ushered in a new era in cruising with Dawn Princess. Like her sister ships, she carries fewer passengers than vessels of comparable size, so you'll never feel lost in a crowd. Instead of one multi-story dining room, Dawn Princess has two intimate dining rooms, plus many other eateries, including a 24-hour international food court. Instead of one pool, she has three spacious pools on different decks. And instead of a gigantic main theater, she has two separate show lounges -- each featuring a unique performance. An AOL Internet Cafe, children's center, and a glass-walled fitness center help create the "big ship choice, small ship feel" for which Princess is well known.
