	Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Great time. by Fred from ME Sailing date: Apr 2007 We had a great time on this cruise, the weather was great. The excursions were a lot of fun. On the ship all of the staff were really nice, especially our steward and waiter who were friendly and helpful. We are planning another cruise soon and would recommend the Star Princess. Activities: A lot of equipment, aerobic and weights. Entertainment: Our only neagtive was that because we had late dining, we missed a lot of the enterainment.

We did the Canopy tour and it was great, the thrill of gliding through the rainforest was awesome, then the hike out through the beauty of the rainforest was great. Then some shopping for souvenirs and some coffee and our stay was over but is something we will remember for long time. Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Great snorkeling. I went ashore early and went right in snorkleing, it was great, fish everywhere. I was in for a while then got out and rested when I went back in, it was crowded, so get out there early. Good cookout, a long line though. 6 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Activities: Would like the exercise room to open at 6:00 am and not 7:00 am. Read this user's port of call reviews: Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cozumel, Mexico Cozumel was the best port for shopping on our Western Carribbean cruise. Don't Miss: The shopping and the Mayan ruins. George Town, Grand Cayman Grand Caymons is a very pretty island and the water is shallow and clear so it is easy to see the fish at almost any point. It is an ideal location to pariticipate in water excursions. Ocho Rios, Jamaica Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Princess Cays has a beautiful beach and the feel of a tropical island. 3 out of 5 people found this review helpful.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Fantastic cruise. by Rick from Lancaster, PA Sailing date: Apr 2007 Pros: The ship, Princess Star, was really large. It was a real beauty ! We liked everything about the ship(including 4 pools). We have gone twice with another cruise line, but Princess was a "cut above" the other cruise line. Everyone on the staff were so friendly and accomodating. The ship was immaculate in cleanliness, the food was excellent, and our cabin accomodations were wonderful (Ocean view window). Our only regret was that we didn't spend the extra money for a balcony room. We will next trip! And we would certainly recommend Princess Cruises to our relatives and friends. Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Activities: Wide ariety of activities. Entertainment: Some good; some shows not so good. Read this user's port of call reviews: Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cozumel, Mexico Cozumel Mexico - Great Shopping Bargains and Food. We shopped the streets of Cozumel; looks like a poorer mexican town. We ate lunch at Pancho's (recommended by Princess) and the food and service was great. Authentic Mexican cuisine! Don't Miss: Pancho's. There is also a nice cave/snorkling adventure. George Town, Grand Cayman Grand Caymen. Plenty of shops in Georgetown; but our Island Excursion - visit to turtle farm, Hell and the Rum factory. We were pushed too quickly on this excursion and did not really have the time to look around much. Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Great Day in the Bahamas on Princess Cay! What an enjoyable day on Princess Cay! Floats, sailboats, paddle boats, snorkling, sunbathing and a great outdoor barbeque provided by Princess. What a great last day! 5 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Excellent cruise. Could not have been an by Pati from Madisonville, TN, US Sailing date: Apr 2007 Pros: To many to list. Loved the size of rooms, loved balcony, loved layout of ship. Lots of pools and lounges. Only ship I have ever heard of that you do not have to wait for elevators - they are everywhere. Princess Cruises certainly lived up to it's reputation of being a wonderful experience. Balcony is the only way to go! Would not change a thing and can't wait to go back!!

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Ship Review by Regina from Memphis, TN Sailing date: Mar 2007 Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Activities: They did not play music like on other cruises. The clypso music just wasn't heard that much. Read this user's port of call reviews: Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cozumel, Mexico Cozumel - there is great shopping. You can take a cab to see the island very inexpensive. Don't Miss: Shopping. George Town, Grand Cayman Grand Cayman - its beautiful. Take a cab and see the island. Don't Miss: 7 mile beach. Ocho Rios, Jamaica Loved it and I will go again. Jamaica....it's beatiful. You must see the botanical gardens. Just know that when you go to the flea markets to shop - the people there are agressive to sell their goods. Don't Miss: The Botanical Gardens. Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Princess Cays is a beautiful island. This is a great day at the beach to sun, eat and relax. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Beautiful Ship! by Louise from Franklin, MA Sailing date: Apr 2007 Pros: The bars and restaurants had very comfortable tables and chairs with wonderful views of the water during the day. The ship's decor was very pleasing to the eye. The ports of call were great! No waiting in line to enter or leave the boat. The decor was very pleasant and tasteful. The day at their private island was wonderful and well organized. We celebrated our wedding anniversary with balloons and a beautiful cake. The sunsets from the panoramic bar were out of this world! I would highly recommend this ship to my friends. Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities Entertainment: The entertainment was ok. Typical shows for a cruise! Read this user's port of call reviews: Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cozumel, Mexico Cozumel. Cozumel was a lot of fun! This was my second visit. The drinks at Fat Tuesdays are great! The shopping is excellent! The people are pleasant! We had a typical Mexican lunch at Cafe Denis. This was recommended by a Mexican merchant. Don't Miss: Just walking around and looking at the shops was fun. We saw performers on the street. We took a horsedrawn carriage ride. George Town, Grand Cayman Grand Cayman. This was my second visit to Grand Cayman. The first time, we swam with the stingrays. This was an interesting experience to say the least! This time around, we took a ride on the Jolly Roger, which was a total rip off. The speaker wasn't working properly, and all they do is to drive up a street, stop for five minutes, then back down the same street. We were packed like sardines on the train. My husband had to sit on the edge of the seat, as they sat five people on a seat meant to be for four people. I wouldn't recommend this tour! Don't Miss: The shopping area was very pretty and had lots of beautiful stores. The seven-mile beach is beautiful. If you want adventure, then a swim with the stingrays would be fun. Ocho Rios, Jamaica Ocho Rios. I would have totally loved Ocho Rios if it hadn't been for the merchants badgering us every five minutes trying to sell us junk. We had fun walking up the falls. The transfers from the boat and back went really well. We had a great lunch at a jerk chicken restaurant, but again, we were badgered by a person selling beads, etc. "No Thank You" is not enough to discourage them, they still keep on following you. Don't Miss: I would recommend Ocho Rios for the walk up the falls. It was a fun experience, and the staff was very helpful. Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island) Princess Cay. This was a wonderful day at the beach. Go early so that you can find a chair at the sandy beach. We ended up at the second beach and walking in the water was pretty rocky. Wear beach shoes. The snorkeling was fun! The shops were nice! The bar-b-cue was pretty good too! There were a lot of different water activities. The kayak was fun! 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

Overall excellent trip. Excellent staff and service. Clean rooms and comfortable rooms. Balcony rooms are worth it. Assigned time seating is annoying, as are formal nights. Little extras add up quickly on your final bill. Superb entertainment. Ship Details: Entertainment & Activities 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

The staff is great, open seating is fun, talks are informative. Overall a very positive cruise! A few of the shows were a little weak.
