Sapphire Princess Tips-Suggestions Sheet:

 

 

• DINE telephone line or in person at the dining reservations table set up on the first day of the cruise
  

 

• On one or two of the afternoons, they serve an old fashioned British lunch complete with fish and chips and Guiness.
  

 

• It is in one of the dining rooms and is very enjoyable. Look for the announcement in the daily printout.
  

 

• The Wakeview bar, located below Club Fusion. Not much of a view but a good place to get away from the crowds.
  

 

• Do take advantage of the teak loungers on the Promenade deck for a quiet read (or nap or watching the water go by.
  

 

• Do visit the Lobby Bar and get your brewed coffee. If you enjoy a nightly cocktail this is also a good place get to know the bartenders and waiters. It's not an International cafe, but they do have a few plates with the wine flights and cookies in the afternoon.
  

 

• Do find your way up to the deck over the bridge for terrific views. No secret door, just go forward on Deck 15.
  

 

• You can get waffles from the ice cream counter at breakfast time just outside the Horizon Court. The breakfast menu in the dinning room seems limited, but get creative, they will make most any type of omelet you can imagine or any combinations.
  

 

• They will walk around with trays of pastries in the dinning room too. Keep an eye open for the cookie cart being pushed around the pool area during the afternoons. You will want to watch for the special food being offered outside the Horizon Court on some days, examples are special pastas, oriental/sushi buffet or exotic chef creations depending on their whim
  

 

• Breakfast and lunch are served in the International Dining Room for anyone who wishes to eat there for those meals. There is a nice menu and you will be served by the wait staff. We enjoyed eating there over the buffet in the Horizon Court.
  

 

• Next to the Passenger Services desk there is a computer where you can swipe your key card and get a print out of your account statement -- any time! Good to check once or twice during the cruise.
  

 

• The library has a nice selection of books and board games (e.g. scrabble) that you can check out so you needn't haul these along.
  

 

• You can order breakfast to be delivered to your room by completing the breakfast card in your room and hanging on your outside cabin door knob before retiring for the evening. Preprinted choices on the breakfast card are for a Continental type breakfast BUT you can pencil in omelets, scrambled eggs, bacon, etc and it will be delivered.
  

 

• Skywalker's Nightclub is a great place to read during the day - lots of light, quiet, and great views!
  

 

• The Lotus Pool in the middle of the spa is a great place to get away. It is open to all passengers, whether or not they are using the spa"
  

 

• Orange or Grape Juice ‘it is complimentary at breakfast time (except fresh squeezed OJ). After breakfast hours, there is a charge, even for regular (non fresh squeezed) juice.
  

 

• Headphones are a must if a movie is playing in the "Calypso Pool". There's free popcorn at the "Calypso Pool" during the movie.
  

 

• Near Neptune Pool on Lido Deck, Prego Pizzeria features fresh-excellent pizzas are found here from 11:00am to 5:00pm.
  

 

• Trident Grill: on Lido Deck from 11:00am until 6:00pm, this is the best place to order a burger!
  

 

• The Santa Fe dining room offers the main dining room menu, but also prepares guacamole for you table side.
  

 

• Pacific Moon dining room on Deck 6 pulls Asian themes into play. The overall effect is a very upscale and unpretentious. Best place to find Mandarin Duck, Tiger Prawns, fresh sushi, spring rolls, and pot stickers.
  
• The Savoy is located aft port on Plaza deck 5. A signature is the prime rib.
  

 

• Vivaldi dining room serves Italian dishes to include ravioli and foccacia!
  

 

• In-Between Meals: Patisserie (7:00am to 11:00pm at the Lobby Bar in the Grand Plaza on Promenade Deck), Sundaes Ice Cream Bar (nominal fee 11:00am to 6:00pm.), Wine and Caviar, Afternoon Tea (3:30pm to 4:30pm - in the main dining rooms. Pastries and finger sandwiches accompany an excellent cup of tea), Room Service (24 hours a day)
  

 

• more Quiet places Lotus Spa-Sun Deck (Deck 15), Library- Plaza Deck (Deck 5), Writing Room-Plaza Deck 5
  

 

• $150 'The ULTIMATE SHIP TOUR is awesome,last 3-4 hours, they gue gifts at the end and serve some champagne & hors d'oeuvre
  

 

• Chef's Table tour and dinner. It's $75/pp, but well worth the cost. It includes a special dinner made by the head chef and hosted by the maitre'd. You'll get a special galley tour while the galley is in full production where you'll eat some scrumptious appetizers and have free-flowing champagne.
