Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Grand Turk Island I did not enjoy Grand Turk. There was nothing really to see. The beach had lots of seaweed and rocks. I took a bus into town and walked around and met a few locals. Hamilton, Bermuda My day in Hamilton began with rain but I didn't let the rain keep me alway. I visted a church which was beautiful. The natives were friendly. All in all the experience the people and the scenery were great. San Juan, Puerto Rico In Puerto Rico I rented a car and went to Arecibo my mother's birth place. The scenery the beaches everything was beautiful in Puerto Rico. Don't Miss: The beaches. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. St. Thomas was beautiful I enjoyed Emerald Beach and while there a wedding was held on the beach. St. Thomas has the most lizards I have seen in a while. Everyone there is friendly. Don't Miss: The beautiful beaches. 30 out of 32 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Great time on Princess. by Tom from Texas Sailing date: Aug 2007 Pros: Multiple lounges with very unique feel in each one. We very much enjoyed our cruise on the Crown Princess out of New York. Our excursions were great and we stayed very busy doing things. There were a few misfires in dining and in some service, but I felt they were isolated incidents and not indicative of a whole. This is our second Princess cruise, and I think they do a very nice job. Ship Details: Dining/Food Food was mediocre at beginning of cruise, but got better as it went on. Specialized dining was excellent.

Not a lot to do here, but the beaches are awesome. We got clued in to going to a beach further up the coast which was a lot less crowded and had good snorkling. My wife and I had a wonderful afternoon, but there's not much in the way of eating our or shopping. San Juan, Puerto Rico Rainforest is awesome. Definitely check out the rainforest tour. Beautiful scenery and a good hike to work off all the food. Bring swim trunks to swim at the 40 foot waterfall. Highly recommended. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Katamaran to St. John's. Had a great time, but unfortunately was very sunburned from kayaking in St. Marten. Takes a while to get to St. John's, but the beach and snorkling are outstanding. Philipsburg, St. Maarten Let's go kayaking. Thoroughly enjoyed the kayaking excursion and will probably do it again next year with our neices. Our guide was very cool and it was fun to mix in some exercise with relaxation as well. We spent a good hour on a very secluded beach with crystal clear water. Too fun. Don't Miss: If you have time, this is the place to shop. Better prices than St. Thomas. 13 out of 16 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Singles/friends Ship Review by Caryl from Great Neck, NY Sailing date: Jul 2007 Ship Details: Dining/Food Napkins/utensils need to be made available at the buffet. Often we had to wait for staff to bring utensils to our table, causing us to wait, food getting cold....why not make them available with the plates? That same resource could be serving beverages.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 4 - 6 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Good Cruise. by James from USA Sailing date: Jul 2007 Pros: Ship was large and nice looking in the public areas. Rooms too small. Good Cruise, but too many people and service suffers. The shows were good, but not enough seats in the common areas, had to stand for several shows, this is not fair. Also people hog all the seats by the pools, never could get a seat. Food was good, but no midnight buffets. Problem is the volume of people, you do not get enough attention. In addition, on the 9 day cruise not enough time was spent on the islands, it was a rush each day and not a full day. Need overnight stays on ports of call and not rush with a four hour visit. Ship Details: Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Too small. Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities Entertainment: No enough seats for shows.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Nice Island. No bargains with the shopping, except liquor. Jewelry is cheaper in NY. Also not enough time too rushed. Don't Miss: City. 2 out of 2 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 Almost perfect. by Mark from Staten Island, NY Sailing date: Jul 2007 Pros: Many great features except for sheer qualtity of people on board. Can't say enough good about the trip, staff, food, entertainment, etc. Fantastic except for one detail. Seemed like far too many people were on boat. Food areas were often packed and the pool situation was unacceptable. We had 4 opportunities to disembark and chose none so that we could have access to the pools! You can do better. Rather than 3,300 people and 1,200 staff, maybe 2,500 people and 1,000 staff would be more appropriate for the ship.
