Restaurant food and service was first class and our outside cabin with a double bed, was spacious and comfortable. Sight-seeing trips were expensive and there seems to be an some spurious ideas (excuses?) to get you on a trip. Much better in many cases to have a ...More

The cabins were quite spacious and having a balcony for the first time made seeing all the beautiful scenery very easy. Cruising the bays was fantastic - College Fjord especially as ...More

THe Island Princess is a beautiful ship with, surprisingly for a ship carrying 2,000 passengers, plenty of space and no feeling of overcrowding. The food and service were excellent - the food was maybe too good for we both added several pounds. Our double bedded cabin was ...More

Had a great cruise and would recommend it. The highlight was the Panama Canal transit. Would have preferrred more time in Aruba and Hutalco and would not do the trip to Grenada again as it was too long and not much time there. The ship and the crew were excellent. ...More

Hilton Hotel Los Angeles for the night before embarkation was excellent. Overall this was an excellent cruise. The highlight was going through the Panama Canal on Day 9. This was awesome. The places visited were well selected with the possible exception of Puntarenas, a very poor place. Whilst it was ...More

This was the sort of cruise to give cruising a bad name. The vast majority of the passengers were very elderly and many with mobility disabilties resulting in most things on the ship happening slowly. The ship itself was fine and our mini-suite with balcony more than adequate. We also had ...More

We sailed from Vancouver, heading north to Whittier in August 2007, aboard the Island Princess. It was our first cruise and as two thirty-somethings we were slightly nervous that we would be trapped on a floating nursing home. However, we needn't have worried. Yes, maybe the average age of the passengers ...More

We cruised on the Island Princess (Princess Cruise Lines) last year and met many people who were die-hard Princess fans. Well, I am sorry, but there is NO comparison with Celebrity Cruise Lines! The meals were ok, but nothing like the quality of that on Celebrity. The entertainment offered ...More
