We are back from our latest cruise on the newly updated Sun Princess! We first sailed just after its launch and loved the Mediterranean vibes, but the ship has received several key updates since then. So, we were excited to see what's changed, where the ship has improved, and maybe where it's still missing the mark. 🚢 The Bright Spots in Our Sun Princess Review Better Restaurant Locations: With redesigned spaces for The Catch by Rudi, The Butcher’s Block by Dario, and others, dining feels more refined. Enhanced Menus: Updates to popular spots like Makoto Ocean, Love by Britto, and main dining rooms make each meal memorable. Sanctuary Collection: This new luxury experience includes exclusive lounges and a private sundeck, adding a touch of “ship-within-a-ship” elegance for suite guests. Where Sun Princess Falls Short SkyDeck Sports Court: Planned attractions like the Rollglider and ropes course have been removed, and no replacement activities have been added yet. Signature Entertainment: Some shows like Viva La Música and Artbeat by Britto brought high energy but left us wanting more in terms of seating and innovation. With a variety of dining options, lively entertainment, and breathtaking views, Sun Princess is still a fantastic cruise experience. So, is it worth setting sail?
