Mixed feelings about this sailing

The destinations were incredible and the cruise director was entertaining. However, the ship felt dated and the dining room service was slow. Some activities were cancelled due to weather, which wasn't the ship's fault, but it affected our experience. Decent overall but not amazing.

Wonderful staff made the difference

While the ship itself is older, the crew truly made this cruise special. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, from housekeeping to the dining staff. The food was tasty and there were plenty of activities to keep busy. Would sail Princess again.

Great cruise with excellent entertainment

The Island Princess delivered a wonderful vacation experience. The nightly shows were Broadway-quality and the guest lecturers were fascinating. Food was generally good, though the specialty restaurants were overpriced. The ship felt crowded at times, but overall we had a great time.

Good value but showing its age

The ship provided a solid cruise experience with decent food and friendly staff. However, you can tell the Island Princess is an older vessel - some areas need updating and the Wi-Fi was painfully slow. The itinerary was excellent though, and Princess knows how to run a cruise.

Amazing cruise experience with minor issues

The Island Princess exceeded my expectations overall. The dining options were fantastic, especially the main dining room service. Entertainment was top-notch with great shows every night. Only downside was that our cabin steward seemed overwhelmed and housekeeping wasn't as thorough as expected. Would definitely cruise with Princess again.

Solid cruise experience

Good overall experience with Princess. The ship was clean and well-maintained, though some public areas could use refreshing. Service was consistent and the itinerary was well-planned. A few minor issues with room service timing, but nothing that ruined the vacation.

Comfortable and relaxing

Perfect cruise for unwinding and enjoying beautiful destinations. The ship was clean, staff was attentive, and the atmosphere was exactly what we hoped for. The only complaint was limited healthy food options at the buffet.

Disappointing for the price point

Expected more for what we paid. The food quality was inconsistent and several amenities were out of order during our sailing. Staff seemed understaffed and stressed.
