| wendy james said: this was the first cruise for my hubby and myself we are both in our 40's so we did not know what to expect,we did not know what sort of age group would be there but it was a mixture.
we could'nt beleive the size of the ship when we seen it first, it is overwhelming a stunning looking cruise ship amazing inside felt like a big resort with shops and casino it was extra special because it was decorated for christmas, we boarded in miami after an over night stay in the miami intercontanintal which was also fab. our cruise was for 10 nights first stop antigua then st lucia,st kitts,barbados,st thomas then last stop princess cays. If you like jewellery you won't be disappointed best place to by st thomas.
the staff on board where lovely all nationality's, so friendly nothing was to much trouble,the first night on the ship our cabin steward knocked to ask if we wanted bath robes, no extra charge, the room we had was on baja deck, which was a high floor,it had a fridge which was handy to keep cold drinks in with ice bucket filled every day,we had a balcony which did cost a bit more but if you like to sit out with a drink it's ideal, we had breakfast on the balcony most mornings, no extra charge you order what you want the night before and the time you want it delivered and hang order outside the cabin door,
we decided on anytime dining which i thought was great as you are not tied to any time schedules and the restraunts where excellent best food i have ever tasted, you are sure to put on at least half a stone, there are a couple of special places to eat, we only booked to eat in the crown grill for our anniversary, extra charge of $25 well worth it,they even brought us a little cake with happy anniversary on it and three members of staff sang to us, we had balloons outside our cabin also.
the drinks are not included on the ship you are given cards for any charges you need to pay for and this is billed to your room which you can pay at the end off the holiday,the ship is a money free inviroment prices are not expensive a cocktail was about |

The ship was amazing to look at and amazing on board. Very clean, food good with plenty of variety. Two restaurnts if you wanted to pay extra, Crown Grill. There was also an Italian one next to the cocktail bar - in this one if you had the starters you had about l5 difference dishes - a little of each one. Staff could not do enough for you. Plenty on board to keep you occupied if you did not want to leave the ship at each port.
Trips out were also mostly well planned and thought out.
Weather could have been better though, experienced some gale force winds which for me spoilt the cruise -had a May Day in the early hours of the morning and had to go and rescue five people of a small yacht - not the ships fault of course.
Hope to cruise again with Princess cruises. |

| Paul Fraser said: This was our 6th Princess cruise and Emerald Princess was everyting we hoped for and more. We have cruised over 20 times so we are pretty selective about ships and we found the service and food exceptional. The ship was sparklingly clean, and our cabin was beautifully kept.
The buffet was excellent - huge choice, so clean, each buffet area was shut down and cleaned during the day. Staff were extremely polite and helpful, and the buffet area was cleared speedily so no piles of dirty crockerty left lying about. We enjoyed the freedom dining which meant we could eat when we felt like it, and at a table size of our choice. It really works brilliantly. At peak times you are given a bleeper and can go and sit and have a drink while you wait, but we never waited longer than 20 mins. Food was superb, the best we have found. Good choice, beautiful desserts etc. Both quality and quantity could not be faulted - and we are fussy as we have been on so many ships and it is difficult not to compare.
Ships staff were excellent, polite and helpful.
Ship's entertainment was good. Some brilliant comedians and the late night shows were particularly entertaining.
We would definitely sail on Emerald Princess again.
