Ocean Princess - Asia

[sondi 14]

We are thinking of cruising on the Ocean Princess in Asia next February. Has anyone been on her since she's come out of dry dock? If so, how was the cruise and what changes were made to the ship? How was the food and the overall experience?

Thanks in advance for any information those of you who've cruised on her can give me.

We just came off of the Ocean on a 14 day version. We also had sailed on it when it was the Tahitan Princess a couple of years ago.

 

Changes made to the ship during the conversion to Ocean were basically just making the name change. There was refurbishment of some rugs and furniture, but these were not changes.

 

The recent experience was just as satisfying as when it was the Tahitian, expecially the friendliness of the staff. Food is as good as on the larger Princess ships.

 

Pictures of the ship from when it was the Tahitian may be found at http://fp.caribill.com/ As the Ocean, it looks the same.

Thanks Caribill for the information and the pictures. I had heard a mixed review from a client of my Travel Agent and thought I'd see if I could get some other opinions.
