Creator's Key Takeaways

We absolutely love spending time in the thermal suite and spa areas on cruise ships. They're the perfect places to relax and unwind.

We've got to say the pizzas were delicious. The whole experience at Alfredo's was fab. We couldn't fault it.

Sitting in the sanctuary was such a lovely experience. Calm, relaxing, and wonderfully quiet.

It was absolutely phenomenal. Really, really good food, lots of little courses.

Consider buying a spa pass for the thermal suite to relax and unwind.
Try the premium ice creams if you have the premier package, as they are included.
Book the specialty dining at Love by Britto if you have the premier package, as it is included.

Star Princess Vlog 7 | Marseille to Barcelona | Final Day on Our Mediterranean Cruise Welcome to the 7th and final episode of our Star Princess Mediterranean Cruise vlog series! In this video, we take you along for our last full day onboard Star Princess, sailing from Marseille back to Barcelona, soaking up every final moment at sea. We start the day unwinding in the Star Princess Thermal Suite & Spa, exploring everything from saunas and steam rooms to the Himalayan salt room, heated loungers and the hydrotherapy pool. We share spa pricing, pass options, and whether it’s worth it for your cruise. Next, we head to Alfredo’s Pizzeria on Deck 9, giving you a look at the menu, dining costs, and how it works with Princess Plus and Premier packages. Spoiler alert – the pizza was absolutely delicious! Up on Deck 17, we visit Coffee & Cones, where we break down what’s included for free, what’s premium, and how many ice creams you can enjoy depending on your package. Even on a port day, the ship felt wonderfully calm as we relaxed around the pool decks and spent a blissful afternoon in The Sanctuary. We share our experience of bidding for The Sanctuary, the service, atmosphere, and whether it’s worth the extra cost. Before dinner, we soak up the atmosphere at Bellini’s Bar, followed by a special evening at Love by Britto, the vibrant specialty restaurant designed with artist Romero Britto and curated by chef Rudi Sodamin. We cover menu highlights, pricing, and package inclusions. The night ends at the Wheelhouse Bar, enjoying cocktails, good company, and reflecting on an unforgettable cruise… plus one last selfie by the funnel before calling it a night. The next morning, we arrive back in Barcelona, enjoy our final breakfast onboard Star Princess, and share our thoughts on disembarkation day – and just like that, the cruise comes to an end. If you’re planning a Princess Cruises Mediterranean cruise, curious about Star Princess dining, spa, Sanctuary, or packages, this vlog is packed with useful insights. We’re sailing in a Sanctuary Mini Suite (upgraded from a Cove Balcony via Princess’ bid system) and enjoying the Princess Premier package, which includes premium drinks, Wi-Fi, and more. Total cost? £1919pp — and we think it’s great value! 🛏️ Want to see our cabin? 👉 Watch our Star Princess Sanctuary Mini Suite Tour here: https://youtu.be/lgESOLMH_Bw The Star Princess is the second ship in Princess Cruises’ Sphere Class, offering next-generation design, expanded outdoor spaces, and the all-new Piazza atrium with stunning ocean views.
