Diamond Princess Review

Additional details
We departed June 1 from Whittier and arrived Vancouver June 7. It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime and it truly was! The ship was spotlessly clean, the crew was amazingly friendly and the food was great. We enjoyed every moment (save for one) and would do the entire trip again beginning to end.
The aft suite was incredible - and we enjoyed the various perks that came with it. Because we had done a land tour, having the free laundry service was fantastic. Being able to order room service off the main dining room menus was a huge perk. This allowed us to keep our eyes glued on the phenomenal scenery.
Having a suite overlooking the wake was just lovely. It wasn't loud and could only be heard if you opened the balcony doors. And even moving at a speedy for a cruise ship 22 knots, we could talk quietly on our deck and easily hear each other. We felt we had a private box and the best seats in the house during the scenic cruising and traveling the inner passage. Whales and porpoise were easily spotted playing in the wake.
Cabin Review
Lovely location. Quiet with a great aft view. C752 is directly above a set of vents that did seem, at times, to have an odor. It was actually a pleasant odor - my husband thought it was venting from the bakery. We could only smell it if we were leaning against the railing. There was never an odor when we were anywhere else on the balcony or in our room. Lots of drawers, cabinets and shelving for personal items whether in the bedroom or bathroom. We would absolutely stay in this suite again.
