Ship Reviews

What can I say about a perfect itinerary. From all my 20+ cruises to Slaska this was the best. Weather was great, got to see almost everything that I have seen before in many cruises but never all in one only thing I did not get to see was the mountains goats on the hill. The crew was fantastic, food was great the staff at Di Vinci first class from the 3 wonderful ladies at the front to the waiter. Great bartender at Good Spirits (Francisco) Samir at the Casino great bartender steward. Christian the multitalented entertainer he can sing from country to rancheras with no problem . The Offers staff was wonderful. It is always nice to see crew from previous sailing and even some from other ships that I have been on. I am sure not everyone will agree with me. There were some small inconveniences but nothing to change my opinion but I am sure some people will clinch to the petty issues and ruin there trip. To those people look at the positives. Thanks for a wonderful 22 days and till the next time

I am generally a value/budget traveller who doesn't often cruise -- and am somewhat out of place there !! But going to SE Alaska seems ideal to visit by boat and the extra sea days are more comfortable than cramming into driving/riding. I liked the destinations (that's why I went) and I had a fine time on the boat even though I wasn't heavily invested in the traditional "cruising experience". I enjoyed the onboard educational/nature lectures, but the other entertainment (shows, sales pitches, music) didn't really draw my attention. The fitness center was fine w/ a good view, the pools/hot tubs were great, in cabin movies/tv was fine. I feel like we had very reasonable weather (only Juneau was really wet), and the views while cruising were a big part of the trip. Really I came here to say the food was great. When I was researching this cruise on this site I saw some critical reviews of the food/buffet and I thought to myself "I will survive", but instead I was pleasantly impressed. I ate at the buffet everyday and was not disappointed. I am not a foodie and generally eat a lot of fresh fruit, veggies, charcuterie, cheeses, etc. Buffet was great, lots of options, great quality, healthy if you want it, all the time. Even the hot food looked good -- which I had maybe a couple of times. I had the pizza/ice cream once -- pizza was very good. I would suggest the ship update the puzzle selection in the library for those sea days.

Fantastic Cruise to Alaska. First cruise on Princess. Others were on RCCL, and Carnival. Leaving SFO, we did have some propulsion problems that caused us to miss Endicott Arm and Victoria, but overall it wasn't that big a deal. The Captain of Ruby is Dariusz Balana, who just joined the ship two weeks prior to our cruise. We did the vow renewal for our 25th anniversary, and he performed the ceremony. It was fabulous, even included a tour of the bridge. We were blessed to have the Owner's Suite which was awesome. Tons of space, aft facing, huge balcony. Our concierge was fantastic (her name was Faith), invited us to all kinds of private events. Food was good and what's to be expected for cruise food. Some items were very good, others just good. We had the Premier package with unlimited everything so that was great not having to keep track of drinks per day, etc. Also allowed unlimited specialty dining. As our 1st Alaska cruise we loved it so much that we booked again for next year already. The ship was beautiful, albeit it is 18 years old. We don't do the shows so can't comment on that. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend the 11 night itinerary. 7 nights is just too short, especially for Alaska.
