Fantazy Posted May 31, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Caribbean Princess is my favorite (evne though I have not yet sailed on her) because it will be my 1st cruise ever :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donna5 Posted May 31, 2005 #3 Share Posted May 31, 2005 The Tahitian Princess because it reminds me of what a ship should be. More wood and less chrome. No Las Vegas feel. It is intimate and NOT a floating resort. I love the rooms also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Cruise4Ever Posted May 31, 2005 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2005 The Pacific Princess is my favorite because that's where I got engaged!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted May 31, 2005 #6 Share Posted May 31, 2005 The Royal Princess... ::: sob ::: sob ::: I like her because in spite of being older and not having the "glitz" of the newer ships, she's elegant, handles the seas very well, is smaller so that you're not walking the length of a football field to get to your cabin, she has a dedicated ("real") movie theater, there are relatively large areas on the back of every deck where you can find a lounger either under cover or in the sun; at lunch every day, they make pasta just for you; at breakfast, there's a cook right at the Lido buffet to make your eggs ANY way you want them. He has a large cooktop and makes all of the prepared eggs right there. I'm so sorry this ship has now left the fleet. It's the way cruising should be.

Druke I Posted May 31, 2005 #7 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Royal Princess was my favorite also. She was quite a stylish ship in her day. Of the ships currently in the fleet, I like Sun Princess, Coral Princess, Regal Princess, Pacific Princess. I like them all, for different reasons. Notice there are no Grand class ships in my list - anything that can't fit through the Panama Canal is too big for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr green Posted May 31, 2005 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Coral Princess! The theaters make the ship, and after two cruises on her, I could find very little that was not to my liking. :) john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LARGIN Posted June 1, 2005 #11 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Coral Princess. Not flashy.. Understated class.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmylou Posted June 1, 2005 Author #12 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Thank you for the replies. We are new to Princess and just booked an Alaska cruise for next year in May on the Island Princess but am wondering now if we booked the wrong ship as I see no one has picked it as thier favorite? emmylou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlainBob Posted June 1, 2005 #13 Share Posted June 1, 2005 So far, we cruised on 4 ships. Of course, I love them all and it is difficult to determine wich one is our favorite... Anyway, here they are: 1. Coral Princess 2. Sea Princess 3. Dawn Princess 4. Regal Princess. Sea and Dawn are sister ships but I prefer the Sea over the Dawn... Don't ask me why ! :rolleyes: Can't wait to see where I will put the Sun Princess after our next cruise... Alain R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat-Nik Posted June 1, 2005 #14 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Has to be the Monte Umbe, the only ship I have ever been on. Until Saturday that is - Sea Princess here we come........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druke I Posted June 1, 2005 #15 Share Posted June 1, 2005 emmylou Several of us listed Coral Princess, which is a sister (almost identical) to the Island Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendon Posted June 1, 2005 #16 Share Posted June 1, 2005 The Coral Princess is just the right size, elegant, and a happy and helpful staff. The Golden is my second favorite, the Dawn was my least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinsac Posted June 1, 2005 #17 Share Posted June 1, 2005 This will be my first time on a Princess ship....we are on the Diamond this fall from SEA around the North Pacific to Japan. I'll ditto what was said above....any cruise ship is fantastic. Each has its pros and a few cons. But truly, my favorites are with Cunard. I have sailed on QE2 many times over the last 35 years, including several World Cruises. She is "old world" elegant, albeit a bit worn down these days. Nevertheless, she still has style. For a more modern ship, by all means, the QM2. Heaven on the seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquarian Posted June 1, 2005 #18 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Out of the Sun, Dawn, Grand, Golden and Caribbean, the Dawn Princess is my favorite because the cruise on that ship was also our favorite cruise to date. The Captain came around and introduced himself at dinner (each table). I don't know - it's hard to say, but the whole cruise was a unique experience. The Caribbean is my second favorite ship.

jackjoyus Posted June 1, 2005 #19 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Emmylou, we have sailed on the Island and it is a beautiful ship, It is the sister ship to the Coral, as many people say they like. The Island has a Hawaiaan theme. It is a wonderful ship I,m sure you will like it. Have a nice cruise. We are going on her again in Nov.to Hawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan40 Posted June 1, 2005 #20 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Sea Princess is booked so she will be my all time, all time, favorite. Unless the house is repaired early and we can sneak in another cruise before Sea Princess. Then that unknown ship will be my all time, all time, undying fave. ....................... Until the next one. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
