This was my 8th cruise with my wife, but my first time on Princess. We booked it last minute but the timing was right and we knew we wanted to try out Princess. This would only be one second time sailing on the Pacific and were excited to see Cabo San Lucas on the itinerary.
Embark- Ship came from a 28 day sail so we couldn't board till mid afternoon. They assigned boarding times but nobody paid attention to it. Otherwise we walked right on and the room was ready to go.
Ship- Ship was pretty nice, Italian themed and the upkeep was pretty good. The clubs and bars are very nice. Theater is a good size but seating is tight.
Port Side Balcony on Deck 15, you're going to feel the ocean up there. Same deck as thew pool, buffet, bars, and snack food so that was convenient. Room was clean and upkeep was fine for its age.
