Princess Vancouver Cruise Reviews

We honeymooned on the Crown in 2007. Had a great time sailing from NYC to the Caribbean and back. That trip kick started our love of cruising. So this trip was a homecoming of sorts. How was it 16 years later? While the ship has obviously aged and shows some wear here and there, overall it seems to be actually improved. The tech added throughout the ship is brilliant. The medallions worked ...

I choose this cruise because it was easy access for my sister and myself as we live in Vancouver. I have cruised a lot but only once before with Princess to Alaska. I normally use Celebrity. First of all the good. I cant say enough about the friendliness of the ship crew and staff. 5 stars I would give 6 if I could. Secondly The food was Not very well presented in the buffet more ...

Sapphire was built in 2004 and refurbished in 2018. It hold ups to 2670 passengers and up to 1100 crew. That's a nice crew to passenger ratio. This smaller ship really provides wonderful service. We took a repositioning cruise from Vancouver to Los Angeles from October 8th-15th, 2023. I would have given them a 4 1/2 stars, but that wasn't a choice. The reality is even though, they ...

This was our first Princess cruise - and it won't be our last!  We have cruised Carnival and NCL and usually choose our ship based on the itinerary, price etc... Several family members encouraged us to try Princess so when we saw the repositioning deal for the Majestic from Vancouver to LA it was a great time to try it - we chose a balcony cabin with Princess Plus.  We made a $200 bid to upgrade ...

The Majestic has done it again - the service is poor, the food is below bad and tasteless, activities are boring, shows are like 5th grade talent shows, they nickle and dime you for everything and now they are charging extra if the dining areas if you want steak or lobster or if you ask for seconds!. The Alfredos pizza place was basically empty except for people that had extra packages, but ...

My wife and I have sailed on 4 cruises to various places. We have sailed on Royal Carribean and Norwegian. The most recent was on Princess to Alaska. The boarding experience was lacking. Very long line and not very organized. We told the person to use the main credit card for the secondary passenger, but apparently that did not happen, so we were called back down to guest services during the ...

Ship was extremely crowded. Embarkation took hours. Layout of the ship is confusing. A lot of people mentioned their difficulties with the ship layout. Ship is old and needs a lot of repairs. Wires hanging. Elevators required long wait times. Ship specialty restaurants were all booked as well as afternoon tea. So disappointing to not be able to eat in one at least once. Food in dining room also ...

While most of the staff were very friendly and go out of their way to help you, guest services left must to be desired. Unless you purchase upgrades and shore excursions, don't expect must. Preferential service is give to passengers who pay the extra money, the rest of the passengers' needs are only seen if the staff has time. This includes disembarkation times at ports. If you stop at a port that ...

This is our second trip on Majestic in two years; the first of which was to New Zealand. THE GOOD The good news is that the overall energy level has much improved since our lethargic NZ experience. The cruise director and his staff did a great job of keeping us all engaged and there was fun enjoyed by all. We had a mini suite which was clean and perfectly managed by our steward, Aldwin. ...

We booked this 4 night Alaska Preview cruise because Airfare was less to fly to Vancouver than it was to Southern cruise ports. My sister was interested in doing a longer Alaska Land & Cruise tour package so this sampler cruise was perfect way to get her to see a Vancouver, Ketchikan, and Seattle. Honestly, this cruise could not have been more perfect! Weather was so perfect every day, I packed ...
