I thought I would chime in rather then let my wife mrsskyhook do all the work. We were on this ship in May for 12 days to Alaska. It was our first cruise on princess for quite a while as we have been sailing mostly on celebrity. We were impressed with the ship as well as the staff so when we saw the opportunity to do the 3 day to San Francisco and then the 12 day to mexico we grabbed it. So far we continue to be impressed! Some of the staff from May are still here and remember us. The ship layout, the staff and the food are all awesome. We are now sitting at the Seaview bar on deck 16 and loving the view of the ocean. Not a lot of cruises we have been on gives you this kind of view sitting at a bar. The weather has been good for this time of year. I got a bit of a tan yesterday. We were at the retreat pool, it is a great area for adults only. It had great service and we met some great people. Unfortunately no sun today. We are booked in club class in the exact same cabin as in May. Club class gives us our own entrance to the Concerto dining room with our own section. The staff and service are excellent! They see us walking in and seat us right away. We are looking forward to getting more South and visiting Mexico, we fly there about 3 times a year and we love the people and the weather. We have a wine tour booked in San Diego. We have never been on a wine tour before and we are really looking forward to this. We will also spend a couple of days in San Francisco when we return as we have never been there. Seas have been calm but it's a bit cool out so we have now moved inside to crooners martini bar, a great place to gather with great service! I will probably chime in again at some point, Cheers!

I'm sure they would look after that as well, they were all super in looking after me.

I have used my cpap on my last few cruises including the Royal which we just got off of in May. We contact Princess (and we were also on Celebrity) ahead of time and they supply the distilled water for free. When you board just see your room stewart and he will supply the extension cord and whatever you need. He then runs the cord and tapes it to the floor for safety. They have all been excellent on either of these cruise lines in looking after me.

Hello all! This is my first review that I have ever done, and a live one at that. I really enjoy reading reviews and comments on cruise critic but I thought it was about time I stepped up to the plate and contributed. I appreciate the experiences that other members have taken there time to share. I will be doing this in tandem with my lovely wife Linda, who I call MG (Most Gorgeous of course!) I am Lyle and this trip is for our 41st wedding anniversary. It was our 40th last year but due to covid and travel restrictions we are going to roll them both into one on May 9th . Yes this is the official day of our marriage, 9 weeks after our first date! We are both in our early 60’s and we live in Parksville, Canada. It is on Vancouver island in British Columbia, a 2 hour drive north of Victoria, our provincial capital. We will be stopping at Victoria on this cruise, please get off and visit, we have a full day here. We come here for weekends all the time as it is so beautiful! The following is our 12 day itinerary on the Royal Princess. We splurged and booked a Club class mini suite. It comes with some extra perks: priority boarding and disembarkation, our own section of the restaurant with no waits and upgraded menu’s and a wine setup in our room among other things. If you are interested in booking this in the future we will share our experiences with you the best we can.
